Blogger has been around since the early days of the internet. For many of us, it was our first publishing platform — minimal, straightforwa
rd, and free. But in 2025, it’s feeling… kinda frozen in time.
Despite being owned by Google, the platform hasn’t seen a major overhaul in years. No modern theme support. No integrated SEO tools. No smooth block editor. If you’re a developer or creator, you’ve probably written it off by now. But here’s the catch — people still use it. And many are waiting for a revival.
So, is Google planning anything big for Blogger this year?
I’ve done some deep digging and wrote a full piece on what’s going on behind the scenes (or not going on). If you’ve ever wondered about the future of Blogger, it’s worth a read:

In the post, I break down:
What the current signs and official updates are saying (hint: not much)
Why Google might be holding off
Whether Blogger has a future or is headed toward retirement
And what creators should do next
My Take:
It’s strange to see such a recognizable platform stand still while the web evolves around it. As developers, we care about tools that grow with us. If Blogger can’t (or won’t) do that, is there still a place for it in today’s publishing world?
I’d love to hear what you think. Are you still using Blogger? Have you migrated to something like Ghost, Hugo, WordPress, or Substack? Should Google retire it, or bring it back in a big way?
