There are some fantastic Blogspot blogs out there. But all too often I see fantastic content laid out in a cookie cutter style theme that I have seen 100’s of times before. I decided to make it my mission to find some well designed and unique blogspot blogs to showcase. Below are 12 Blogspot blogs that have either unique or well designed themes:














Update: Added 2 more: nobs Tutorials and IT blog to the top of the list.

Wow, you really got me! Thanks for the review, Simon!
I didn’t know that
May I direct your attention to something, uhm, “different”?

There are some good ones there Simon. I don’t think they are in order though. Stumbled.
Thanks for the Stumble Mani. Yeah, no particular order.
@Keeto: I will have to check that when I get home, work blocks blogspot blogs
Wow. Thanks!
Cool! I can’t believe that my blog made the list, but it appears that I am in very good company.
Keeto, I really love the ITlog design, it is amazing, I’ve added it to the top of the list!
@Simon: Wow.. Thanks.. One request though, can you change the name of the link to “Electric Itlog”?.. Itlog means “egg” in Filipino, and “Etlog” is a play on the spelling of itlog.. ^_^
Well well what can you say about my design? I’m on blogspot too!

P.S. Simon, nice post - I was just wondering if someone makes really good designs for blogspot - and here they are
Nobs Tutorials looks great…added to the list!
Hey simon,can you give a complement about my blog?
Thanks for the kudos, Simon. Its pretty cool to be selected in this bunch. Cluck cluck!
Wow! I am super flattered…thank you for the mention.
Yeah! Congratulations to all the stylish bloggers! Keep it up!
I love well-designed blogs! Giving your content a great-looking vehicle is something not overlooked by these fabulous blogs. I’d like to think mine’s pretty good lookin’ too
You have a nice collection of blog design here. Hope youll add more choices.
What a great list! Chickengirl deserves to be honored!
Nice designs, just a shame they’re on Blogger
I like chickengirl, firewalker and popcorn not included best. Very different styles but each in their own way captures your attention.
It’s very useful sites. Good for the future references. i really like the food for design. layout
Nice. Even the blogspot can do that !
Your Jobs is ace!
Those designs are breathtaking - I think the “Simon So” one is the most eye catching though just because it is so unique.
Cool.. I like the brand builder blog. Simple and nice.
Great list of blogspot blogs here. Cheers.
Great list… I too have been noticing all the identical blogs..
I think its probably cause blogspot comes with a fairly limited default set of templates.
Hei, I think Firewalker template is cool =)
I can barely believe it’s Blogspot blogs! These are clearly talented people and maybe I’m being cynical but why bother? Why bother showcasing your skills when it’s not marketable? I’m assuming people use blogger is because it’s free. I guess maybe they are downloadable themes to get backlinks but I also think that blogspot people might not be as sophisticated to use other themes other than the generic ones? That’s a gross assumption on my part but maybe I’m just brainwashed by the fact that people with their own hosting are more “serious”.
Nobs tutorials looks awesome. Who knew you could take a free blogging platform and make it look so good? Just goes to prove that even free blogging platforms like Blogger can be used to create a great online presence.
I have to admit those are some great blogspot designs. I am suprised the people did not use a wordpress blog but i guess it shows how good some people are no matter who hosts blog or what type of platform it uses.
Did they make own templates and code or what. I have to check more of the blogs out they are all good and i never thought you could make a blogspot blog look that good.
Thank you Simon for sharing these themes.
I like a lot 2 of them.
Kudos to these blogs. It’s not often that blogspot blogs have any amount of web design period.
They all are really good.simple and nice.I like firewalker and popcorn. thanks.
WOW.. What a post. this is one of the posts which are very interesting and outstanding. Really very helpful. Thanks for posting it
Those are some great designs! I am going to have to make some changes to mine to make it more appealing.
I like the fire walker one the best. Some great desings i wish i could do more like them.
Is it worth changing from a wordpress to a blogspot engine. Is it better easier to keep and install?
LMax brings up a good point and I tend to agree. To me, people who use blogspot are newbies, just getting their feet wet. I’m guessing these pro blogspot blogs are guys who have stuck with them so long they’ve decided to become more professional but don’t want to make the switch to a new platform because they’d have to change url’s. But why do they bother? Unless you’re able to monetize them seems like a waste of time.
I like the blogger templates and noobs. they both are very good. Popcorn is not bad either.
Nice designs. Never knew you could change blogspot blogs like this. Thanksi will have to try it.
I di not know you could make a blogspot blog look so good. Some of the sites are realy good designs. I have to look at them more and figure out what i can do.
I really like the blogger template design. something I can use
Wow, very interesting post. Not sure if I agree with all these “well designed blogs” though. Still bookmarked it
I did not know you could make a blogspot blog look so good. I thought you could not change design or template. I like firewalkers site and some of the others. They all are very good designs and are hard to tell that they are blogspot blogs.
Those are all so pretty. I never even knew a blog could look so clean and creative. Do people make these themselves (ie are there free templates)?
I like firewalker site alot. Noobs is also a good one. Nice to see people do some great designs for a blogspot blog.
Wow! It’s very beauty and creativity. It’s art of blogger world.
Those are some great designs for a blogspot blog. I have to look at them more and see how i can use some of the design ideas they use. Every site looks great and you never would think they where blogspot blogs.
I love the Food for Design one, the color is nice. And the issue you discuss is even worse with the wordpress free blogs, when there are so many nice designs why use the plain old default one?
