I don't think Google will shutdown Blogger. There are some HUGE Blogger blogs out there. There are also many local community-focused blogs that get loads of comments. Blogger is very much alive and earning money for Google via AdSense. They did shutdown the subscribe-to-posts via email feature, which was like a free unlimited subscriber newsletter. I don't even want to get into why Blogger is so great, because if I say what I know, people will start abusing it.

I’ve occasionally toyed with moving from Blogger to something else. But whenever I’ve done so and investigated alternatives it’s looked like a lot of work and would cost money. Want a homepage too.

  Is it because your blog has dynamic content?

    It’s really nothing fancy but I need a homepage and I want blog posts that may or may not have images and a lot of Wordpress templates would take customization to get what I want—and I don’t really want to have to learn a bunch of web stuff to do.

Keep in mind that "earning" money isn't enough. $100M in revenue isn' even a rounding error.
