Best Blog Framework for .Net
Technically this is way better than wordpress in just about every regard (especially performance). But it is pretty hard to be the easy plugin model and the huge community for wordpress. If you're .net centric, this is the number one choice
Nice Tool
Fast, easy setup. Extremely customizable, if you know what you're doing with HTML and CSS.
Surprisingly Elegant and Easy To Use
I've been messing around with Word Press, Joomla, and Drupal, and have to say that BlogEngine has the best features and ease of use as a blog once you get going. If you know CSS, it's not hard to tweak the basic theme enough for it to be presentable, but the best part, is how well laid out everything is and easier to update, esp if you just want a basic blog with pictures and text. At this point, I much prefer BlogEngine to WordPress and hope to continue using it. For an example, visit killercomments.com, which is running under BlogEngine. I like that it uploads pics and text very easy and is very easy to customize to your needs on the page. WordPress is a challenge by comparison.
Excellent Tool
If you like .Net, you'll like this app. It has alot of SEO firepower and tools if you read the documentation. It isn't hard to use at all. Once you get the feel of it. This isn't to knock Word Press, its good too. But this app shouldn't be underestimated. Read the documentation, lots of good points to this one.
Good .Net blog
Wordpress is No.1 BE is No.2 :) but it should upgrade some code behind or extension :)
