Setting up first blog. Total noob. Any suggestions on sites, hosts, and security?

A lot of people use the free service weebly provides and is n00b friendly. It uses prebuilt elements so you don't need to know HTML

Easy Blogging

Our blogging engine uses the same drag & drop interface that makes Weebly amazing. Add photos & videos to posts with ease.

 

I used that before I moved to the free provided service of x90x, if you're ok with html. But I did get in when it was new and have way more features and space than the free service offers now.

x90x.net: Unlimited Web Hosting Plans

with x90x I created a Sins of a Solar Empire Modding site soase.x90x.net and have a subdomain for the Sacrifice of Angels 2 (SOA2) mod I am part of 
soa2.soase.x90x.net

Thanks Doc and myfist (BTW - nice to hear from you both - I've been away awhile). Always good to have experienced guides (you 2) help cut through all the info overkill on the web and get directly to effective guides and resources. Thank you so much.

Elana... You could try going here: http://desktop-art.info/forum/index.php?/user/337-boopish/  and sending her a message. She's quite knowledgeable ...
