Limitations
Blogger has the following limitations on content storage and bandwidth, per user account:
- Blog description = 500 characters. HTML mark up not supported.
- Number of blogs = 100 blogs per account.
- Number of labels = 5000 unique labels per blog (increased from the original 2000), 20 unique labels per post
- Number of pictures (hyperlinked from user's Picasa Web Album) = Up to 1 GB of free storage
- Number of posts =There is no limit on the number of posts one can have in one blog.
- Size of pages = Individual pages (the main page of a blog or archive pages) are limited to 1 MB
- Size of pictures = If posted via Blogger Mobile, limited 300 KB per picture; posted pictures are scaled to 1600px
- Stand-Alone Pages = Limited to 20 stand-alone pages.
- Team members (those who can write to a blog) = 100 invitations per blog.
On February 18, 2010, Blogger introduced "auto-pagination", which limited the number of posts that could be displayed on each page, often causing the number of posts on the main page to be less than that specified by the user and leading to a hostile response from some users.
Private blogs are limited to only 100 members. A member of Blogger's staff (Brett from Blogger) recently stated that Blogger's private blog limit is 100 readers is because
If someone wants a private blog, 9/10 it's illegal or suspicious. A few people want one for legitimate purposes like medical support, but in most cases it's to hide piracy at best and drug dealing or preying on children at worst. We have to use staff to personally monitor every one of our private blogs. They are costing us money right now and until people stop making them to spread religious intolerance or preparing arms for the violent overthrow of the government, we are not expanding the number.
Most of the blogs appear harmless. But when we review each of the user's activity on other Google networks, you will find the same people in the blog membership all have related interests and at least one of them is always of questionable legal nature at best. Smaller numbers are easier to verify that the blog is being used safely and legally.
