Optimum Blog Placement?

[strugglingnovice]

I'm still tweaking my site, and I'm trying to create site links by blogging, as some of you on this forum suggested I do.

I built my blog using Blogger, primarily because I've blogged for years with Blogger and I'm comfortable with it, and I titled it bigredworkweardotblogspotdotcom. Now I'm wondering if that's a mistake to have the word blogspot in it. Will Google search my keywords and the links I have created and then associate it with my Big Red Workwear website? OR, should I install WordPress and have my site link to bigredworkweardotcom/blog, would that give me better results in keyword searches? Is the word "blogspot" in my URL going to give me problems, or am I worrying unnecessarily? Obviously, once again, I don't know how Google really operates. Despite the fact that I have read so many SEO articles and books, I struggle constantly with comprehension, this stuff just doesn't come easily to me, and I apologize for always having to ask this board these questions. I would seriously be lost, if not for the help you all have given me.

Anyway, I have this great masculine looking vintage Blogger template, (bigredworkweardotblogspotdotcom) and would like to be able to use it, and of course, if I migrate my Blogger site to WordPress I won't be able to. I'm just uncertain if I'm headed in the right direction for the best visibility with Google.

Can someone give me some direction, please.

As always, I appreciate you guys so much, your knowledge is just amazing!!!

And I apologize for all the dots, but I have realized that Google does find me on these forums and the links show up when I do a Google search for my website, I don't really want that. I am learning a little bit ;o)
