I want to start a blog.

there are many blog sites now available.. there are blogspots, blogits... but if you want, you can have the friendster blog.. or maybe the freewebs blog.. it is a free site, like the others.. its up to you.. i believe templates [or the interface] is also one thing you might consider..

I suggest that you open a free account in Wordpress or Blogger. If you develop a strong following or you have a steady unique visitors daily, then maybe you can upgrade your account with them. These blogging sites offers different paid account suitable for amateur or professional bloggers. If you want your own domain name and web hosting you can try GoDaddy or Yahoo domains. Better yet why don't you try googling for one that suits your budget and needs. Happy blogging.

try a yahoo 360 page they are great and they have all kinds of guidance to help you.

maybe you want to try www.blogger.com, it's a very good blog host and easy to manage and edit.

Go through betablogger.com or blogit.com. You will be guided further tostart your own blogsite freely. May I know on which subject you want to start your blog.
