Blogs began to gain global popularity from 05, and from 06 to 07, the landscape of blog platforms underwent significant changes, especially in China. As the existing platforms became more powerful, many new and good blogs also emerged domestically. However, not many new notable platforms appeared internationally, with Movable Type (MT) still dominating. It’s likely that MT's position won't be shaken in the next few years. WordPress is also an excellent platform; its open-source code and powerful plugins are all designed according to SEO principles, making it very popular among SEO professionals. Domestically, the ASP-based z-blog has become mainstream, while in PHP-based platforms, the multi-user Plog has developed the fastest. Other platforms have similar functionalities, but the most widely used ones are WordPress, exBlogMix, and bo-blog. Several domestic blog platforms are also developing rapidly. I can't really specify the differences in their features anymore, so everyone should research them one by one.
