For domains I purchase via NameCheap. I've previously purchased hosting from 3IX for $1 a month. Once my blogs started to grow I've either upgraded my hosting plan or moved to another host (no biggie). The 3IX control panel allows you to install WordPress within a few clicks so its easy to use.

Doing the above gives you full control over your blog and what goes on it.

Unfortunately with blogger.com there are some restrictions, although it is a great way to start for absolutely free.

When you say "add wordpress" does that mean that you still have to get your wordpress stuff going on the wordpress website and just redirect it to your domain? And you can add "adwords" to this?

Thanks!
