For those using Blogger which is FUBAR today, let me suggest some alternatives that are cheap and higher quality and reliable
My old host Blogstudio is quite good.
Another great one is a St. Louis based company that is tiny, but gives great customer service, Bloghorn
Both offer free service for those looking for it. I chose a separately hosted deal because of the site traffic–harder to set-up, easier to manage with a lot of traffic.
