I also will be getting a domain, I was just looking at GODADDY.com as well...what`s this transfer cost you speak about though? Will I be needing it? Also, why do I need a host?
Thanks for all the help guys, I`m pretty new at this.

Godaddy.com is great. I use it.
Basically registering a domain is like getting a title to virtual real estate...
Now you need somewhere to HOST your real estate? That's where a web host comes in. For starters you can go very cheap. ~5$ a month. One day (Hopefully) you will get SO MUCH traffic you need to upgrade. It's a happy / sad day.
Some places have like a fee if you want to transfer away from their registrar.
I wouldn't say your blog is pathetic. You're new. We were all new once. In fact most new people started on blogger or other free services.
Ultimately it's YOUR content so why not OWN it? (The logic behind going Wordpress self hosted). Furthermore Wordpress has WAY more plugins, free themes, blah blah blah.
You're on the right track and we're here for you every step of the way!
