PageRank is an algorithm used by Google Search to rank websites in their search engine results. If you work with brands on product reviews etc , companies will want to know what your page rank is, in order to get this rank you will need to submit your blog sitemap to google for indexing via webmaster tools.

Blogger seems at once simpler and more complicated than wordpress. Glad I use the latter, but hope your post helps some blogger users
citrusspiceuk@gmail.com
Fiona, I think word press has lots of plugins that blogger does not.But at least it encourages to learn and share new things with each other.
