Edublogs is the only builder on this list made specifically for teaching. It runs on WordPress and adds education tools on top: Edublogs lists student and class management, content filters, moderation options and full privacy settings, all on its free plan. Teachers can group students, oversee their posts and leave private feedback on assignments, which turns a class site into a place where students publish as well as read. Edublogs says it hosts over 5 million blogs and that the free plan has no ads and no hidden fees. The free tier caps storage at 256MB with a 30MB file limit, so heavy video use needs Pro. Pro costs $39.95 per year and adds 50GB storage, a custom domain, email subscriptions so parents get new posts by email, search engine indexing and full visitor statistics. The trade-off is the WordPress dashboard, which has more menus than Google Sites. Schools that want every teacher on one network can use the CampusPress offering instead.
