Free blog sites
Found a nice list of free blog sites on my travels:
Blogger
Wordpress
Live Journal
SelectaBlog
Blog Text.org
Now Blogging.net
Okay Blog.net
Dakota Blogs
Out Blogger
Blog Thing
Daria Be
Blogg Host.net
The Blogs.net
From a SEO perspective, they offer an opportunity to build up a network - even across different themes - and use them to backlink to main sites and clients you want to power.
The drawback? Relying on a third-party provider can be risky, so either back up your data regularly if you can, and if you cannot, don;t paste up anything valuable. :)

For new bloggers, some of these sites can be advantageous. Just read the “Terms of Use” to make certain that any ads you put on your blog do not violate their terms. Otherwise, you could be blogless one day. Ouch!

Yep - plenty of horror stories about third-party free hosting wiping out content without warning. :)
