Well, free is my favourite word, but there are definite limits to free. You may not have access to features that you'd like, there's often a limit on the size of your blog, you may have to have advertising on your blog, the company's name may be part of your address.
Pay means you have to spend money. However, it may not be as expensive as you think. I'm lucky, in that my teacher-librarian pays for our blog.
Blogger is free, but it charges $10/year to create your own URL (the hosting is free). Otherwise, you get ____.blogspot.com
Typepad (which my school uses) charges from free to $30/month--the more you pay, the more you get
Wordpress (which I have used) costs from free to $300/year--there's a ton of pricing options in this blog
Posterous (free). I don't know much about this site, but another teacher loves it, and it allows you to post using email, rather than going into the site.
