I've been all over the blogosphere and tried out numerous blog providers. The one I finally settled on and am very happy with is BlogHarbor which uses the Blogware software (Blogware is the upstream provider and has several providers). Of the many advantages in using BlogHarbor, the support is personal, timely and communicative. And no, I do not get any benefit from this promotion - just think the service deserves to be better known.
