Once the domain is bought how do i create a new blog.Is there a particular
software to create a blog?

You pay for a domain yearly (or more). Nothing less. The average annual cost for a domain is 7 to 10 dollars (US). If you pay more, you're getting ripped off.

Once a domain is bought, you point it to your server. The server is where you have your blog set up. The most common blog system is WordPress.

I can't answer more until I know what your skill-level is.

Why would you have to buy a domain name just for a blog when you can use Blogger or WordPress for free? But of course, the decision is all yours.

I think, blogger and WP is the best free blog-publishing system/site today.

To have web site you need to have domain name, web hosting.
Look at the another forum here and you will understand and how that can be used.
And you will need blog software.
Good luck
FYI: u\you always can ask the questions here.

Because you are not reliant on a third party, if Google (blogger, blogspot) or wordpress decide to remove "your" content for some reason, you have NO recourse.

Domain registrations are usually per year. Once you have bought the domain find a reputable hosting company and get a shared hosting account. I would recommend finding a host with Cpanel control panel. They should have Fantastico De Luxe installed with Cpanel. You can then just browse through a list of blog scripts and have it installed within a few clicks.

Exactly. If you use your own domain, even if your stuff is hosted on a freebie, if they take it down providing you have your content backed up you can recreate the site if they take it down. The hard part is doing so fast enough before google notices the site went down for a while. Could be time consuming too especially if the blog has complicated urls that you need to figure out and then recreate your content pages.

Still a lot safer than relying on their domain which if they take down screws you royally.
