The MovableType suggestion seems interesting.

It would be interesting to see and hear just what the differences are between wordpress and movable type, in practice, for adult commercial blogging.

Tho, the larger question about stable profitability hangs over the whole blogging endeavor. It's hard to imagine, if signups were solid, that stability couldn't be resolved.

If WordPress would have remained a blogging engine rather than attempting to create a CMS that anyone could use for any purpose and have the ability to work with every possible plugin, it would have been better off. Small and stable, sort of like me, is better in the long run than big and versatile. I suppose you could grab an old release of WP and have a programmer integrate features that are needed and eliminate extra processes.

There is the option of moving to drupal or perhaps a different platform but at this point in time it's a question of time and effort versus profitability. Like I said originally, I sunk a lot of time and money trying to stabilize WP already.

In the long run, a port over to Drupal seems likely but in the near future I think I'll be focusing on other avenues than WP or blogging

If memory serves and if ronnie is still running around he might be able to enlighten on Movable Type as I believe that was his initial script and then he moved to WP

Give textpattern a go.

I forgot to say, its got a Wordpress import feature and oodles of plugins... you've just got to port your template across

I never liked wordpress, that's why I went with http://www.b2evolution.net/

I run multidomain blogs on a couple of servers and it is very stable. If you need help, I can recommend you a coder for installs and mods.
