 * Using WordPress.com definitely has a higher user activity rate for new blogs.
   When I started on WordPress.com users would ‘favorite’ my content frequently.
   When I moved over to a hosting option, that disappeared very quickly. So when
   people move over to hosting, it’s purely SEO at that point?

 * Yes, that is part of it but more often, going from a FREE blog to a serious website
   with WordPress.org is a big step. People with custom domains are typically competitive
   for business, ad revenue and other. More than those with FREE Blogs.
 * Sure, they think they are competitive but search engines, most often, don’t take
   them seriously. Think about this: Google, which owns Blogspot, typically REFUSES(
   but are becoming more willing for MONEY) to allow those with THEIR OWN Blogspot
   properties to use their Paid Advertising with Adwords!!!
 * .com are nothing more than hobby sites (not that there is anything wrong with
   that).
 * For any who dispute this – check your top 20 most competitive keyword searches,
   go to search engines and find how many FREE Blogs are in top 10-20 results.
