1. Pick a Great or Catchy Name for Your Blog.
Your blog name should encompass your blog’s mission and should clearly
articulate your blog’s purpose. Don’t hurry through the process of picking a name; it’s your brand and you want to make sure you love it and it’s something you’re going to love for years to come.Take a week or two to consider potential names. Ask a few trusted friends to give their input. Toss around ideas, and when you land upon ones you like, check to see if the domain name (the www website address) is available on GoDaddy.com before jumping ahead and settling on any one name.
2. Purchase the Domain Name
As soon as you land on the blog name you love and have double-checked that no one is using it, buy the domain name immediately. It usually costs around $10 per year for this and it’s worth every penny to have your own domain name for your blog.I always purchase domain names from GoDaddy.com just because that’s what I’ve always done. However, if you are planning to set up your blog through Blogger (see point 3 below), it’s much, much easier if you purchase the domain name directly through Blogger rather than through a separate domain name service because the domain will be automatically set to point to your Blogger blog. You won’t have to go through the process to manually input the code yourself to point the domain to your blog. I also suggest, if you want to think long-term and hope to turn your blog into a successful business, that you purchase all variations of your domain name. That way,you don’t have to worry about someone else setting up a site with a domain name very similar to yours.
Note:- If you want a domain for less price almost half of what it cost comment on the post below and I will give you a method to purchase you domain name for cheap.
3. Chossing a the Correct Blog Platform
If you have just started or about to start.I would recommend you to start with blogger.com or just stick to blogger.com until your blog is popular.
If you have a popular blog then I would recommend you to learn wordpress and shift your blog to wordpress.
4. Choose a correct theme or template Or Hire a Designer.

5. Plan Your Posts Ahead of Time.
Before you open your doors to the public, go ahead and post 10 to 15 posts, plus plan out and write another 15 to have in queue to post after you start advertising your blog. Not only will this allow you to get your feet wet and get accustomed to blogging before you have a real live audience,it also provides some great content for people to check out when they visit your blog.I love Google calendar for planning out post series long-term.You need to be updating your post and unique articled to compete with other blogger's.
