Blog battle in French-speaking Switzerland

In French-speaking Switzerland, two providers claim to be the initiators of the first free blog portal in French-speaking Switzerland: Romandie Blogs and Bleublog. The latter is sponsored by Le Matin Bleu and specifies the "We were the first" claim by stating that it is the first blog portal for "mobile people". The blue blogs offer services that are geared towards mobile devices: For example, users can send photos from a concert directly to their own blog via MMS. The weblogs on Romandie.com are "100 percent" free, as the reader learns at the very beginning. No advertising is forced upon them, it continues. Romandie.com has set itself the goal of democratizing the blog phenomenon in French-speaking Switzerland.
However, users of both portals have the option of flushing a little cash into their own blog coffers using Google Ads. Both Romandie.com and Bleublog.ch also promise simple handling and the creation of your own weblog in three steps. The score is currently 1:0 in favor of Bleublog: At the time of publication of this article, the Edipresse offshoot counted 3028 Internet diaries, while 2626 were in operation on Romandie.ch.
