Can anyone guide me through creating one, choosing whether I want a website/blog, and in setting it up?
Really need help in doing this as have no clue how to go about it...
Thank you!

Well, there are many sites specific for blogging. I recently got interested in this as well, so I dug a little.
One of the sites is https://wordpress.com/ it's very simple, you can look up tutorials on how it works and such.

This one https://www.blogger.com also works pretty well. In fact, it's more customizable than wordpress, I think (I didn't use this one enough to talk much about it)

And finally, there's also https://www.tumblr.com/ Tumblr is a very simple platform for you to make a blog site. It's very simplistic, nothing complex. I follor many people on there for their blogs.

I am sure there are lots of other sites that allow you to have a free domain blog, I guess if these three I suggested to you don't appeal you much, you can look up something else. You don't have to know to code in order to make a blog. There are many available tools that you can use.

In case you want the blog to be very fancy and customisable, I'd suggest blogger.com but if you want something basic and that doesn't require coding, I guess tumblr could do the trick.

@Innocent Forever I am at work atm but grab me in PM later if you want to talk about this. There are lots of options and it depends really how much (if anything) you want to spend and what you want to do with the blog/website? If you want something free or very cheap the blogger is the way to go. Wordpress.com is really easy but it is also really limiting (in my opinion - but I like creative freedom to make it look however I want so maybe most people are fine with it)

Hi @Freya can you start a chat or non-public thread somewhere so that I can ask you about it?
I think I want to use wordpress.org. Though maybe that's not the best. Only because all the youtube's I've watched, lots, seem to suggest that as the best website whose main focus is a blog. And with getting your own domain name, it seems to then be the same price as .com.
Have an awesome day!!
