Choose whether or not you want your own domain name or not. Owning the domain name means you will get a ".com" rather than a URL with your host's name on it, for example: "yoursite.wordpress.com." Owning your own domain can make your blog look more professional, and is cheap: Prices can be $5-$10 a month.
However, setting up this type of site takes more time and effort. If the URL is not important to you, and you would like to set up an easy blog, using a free blog site is your best option. If you would like to use a free blog site, sign up for your free blog on a blog site such as WordPress, Blogger or Weebly (See Resources) and skip to Step 5.
