I'm looking for a good site to start a blog. I already have a livejournal but I'm tired of the lj site so I'm going to delete it and start a blog somewhere else. I'm hoping someone will give me an idea what to use.

The things that I want in a blogging site
-no coding what so ever- I barely passed web design
-a couple of different layouts
-archives old posts so I can go back to them or has previous pages that I can look at. I don't want something where my older posts dissapear into space.
- I prefer to have a blog that I can make private but I don't know if that is possible on any other blog site besides livejournal so it isn't a must.

-something that isn't surrounded with flashing ads all over the place.

I'm looking at blogger.com, wordpress.com and journalspace.com. Does anyone have an opinion on which one is the best? If you have one of them can you share with me why it is good? Or tell me if there are any other sites that are good. Thanks. Sorry I'm posting this again
