I've set up many things on that host, from wordpress to forums to full-blown content management systems, and can help guide you through anything unfamiliar.

Expression Engine - good content management system, but overkill for a blog. Go with Wordpress.

Yes, the host offers cPanel and Fantastico, as well as much more.

Wordpress does have a Blogger importer, so you shouldn't have to do it by hand. (I moved my blogger blog to wordpress a while ago, and my brother had to write a custom script to do it... I hear nowadays the auto-importer works well) Good to hear. Wordpress does have a Blogger importer, so you shouldn’t have to do it by hand.
