1. Are you using Blogger or Wordpress? Why did you pick either one? I am using Blogger- had always heard it was easier for a beginner but that Wordpress was better for "customization"... is this true?
2. If you are using one of Blogger's free templates, which template are you using? a) Go to your screen with all your posts from your blog; select "Template" (left-hand side bar), then "Customize". The next screen will tell you which "Template" you're using...
3. If you paid someone to design your blog, would you recommend them? Can you LIP who you used?
Getting bored and want to do more customization on my cooking and travel blogs...
I use Blogger and bought a template and had it customized. I used www.etsy.com/shop/bellaluluink and would highly recommend her. There are a lot of templates for both blogger and wordpress on etsy.

I work for a design agency and we use worpress exclusively because of the versatility. It's amazing and user friendly. I have picked up a lot with zero prior experience.
I stopped using a free template a few months ago. I purchased one off etsy for less than $25 and had an easy time implementing it with the seller's provided instructions.
I'm team Blogger. I've been using it since gosh 2007? As I've gotten older I've become less tech savvy and Blogger is easy enough for me to not lose my ever loving mind. So I see no reason to jump ship and go to Wordpress. I was using their template until a few months ago when I decided that I wanted something different. I ordered a premade template from an etsy shop. I like it and it was super easy to get it up and running with the instructions that came with the template.
