You have reached the point that by not having your own domains and hosting you are harming your growth. I suck at scripts too but wordpress is easy to install. Plus, most hosts now have one click install for it so you don't even have to install it yourself anyway. Somebody like certified hosting is under $20 a month with unlimited domains. All you need is to earn one extra sale a month and it has paid for itself.
It is interesting that you post this at the same time as there is another thread about Porncity closing. My first sites were on the Porncity free hosting. I dragged my feet for ages on getting my own domains (back when they were $70 for two years) and hosting. Then one morning I woke up and found something had gone wrong with their hosting and my sites were gone. They weren't my domains so I had no rights to complain.
You are working hard and doing pretty good for it but you are building your empire on sand. All you need is a strong wave and all your work is gone.
You could always try a hybrid approach as you learn. Buy a couple domains each in a niche and make them your core blogs for those niches. Put all your best posts and keyword stroking there. Then, build your freehosted blogs to push traffic to your core blogs. Get that traffic to your domains where you control all the adspace.
