There are many, many blogger mediums out there, most free and some paid with premium options. Blogger, acquired by Google, is a totally free package where anyone with a Gmail account can create as many blogs as they would like. The panel is very user friendly and provides a simple portal to change any part of the blog and how it looks. Blogger can be used for monetizing as well, through Google Adsense, which places ads on the site and generates revenue.
WordPress, on the other hand, is a commercial solution that can be used for free (to an extent) but most features are premium and require a payment or subscription to use them. WordPress also offers up the ability to host your own site using WordPress by downloading the software from their website, this means you don't have to stick with the free hosting provided like with Google Blogger. WordPress offers custom, paid, designs and themes, as well as an ad-free option.
I have only used Blogger for a short time, and I really enjoy the features, but a lot of people that use WordPress will stand by that as the best blogging software, each with their own strengths and weaknesses.
