    The question seems pretty vague.

    It's easiest and most common to monetize blogs using affiliate programs.

    If you use the free blogs at blogger.com monetization is easy with google adsense. You can also promote affiliate sites on them.

    Don't put too much time and effort into a blog you don't actually own.

    It is a great way to practice or do testing but if you want to make money you should get your own domain and hosting.

    Blogs are simply a great way to make money online. You don't even need to pay for hosting, yet you can do almost everything you want!

    What happens when the host decides to shut off your account. What have you promoted then?

    the cost of some shared hosting and a domain wont kill you, its better to get the real thing if your going to put in effort.

    No one knows that when free blog will shut down and also if blogger owner feel this blog is totally marketing may be he shutdown that blog better if you want to earn then use own domain.

    I highly suggest hosting your own blog and obtaining advertisers that pay a monthly retainer for a select ad area. This has worked exceedingly well for many of my clients and I have paid for ads on other blogs with excellent results.

    There are lots of account in blogger and to think that the owner
    can generate good income from it and each account. So I think
    the owner will not delete any account not unless it harm
    their reputation or what..

    And about the promotion of free blogs, I cannot see any problem
    with that. You can earn from it.
