You can create a blog for free but when you are running a free blog you will have difficulty in getting ranked on search engines, building traffic, monetizing the blog, and generating revenue.
Creating a self-hosted blog cost money, you need money for the domain and hosting. However, there are ways to launch a blog for a low cost.
Register a domain (it cost less than $8 for a dot com) and create a blogger account, and then map your domain with your blogger account. By doing this you will be using blogger’s hosting platform to launch a blog with a custom domain.
There are also hosting companies that offer free domain if you buy their hosting plan. For instance, by paying around $35 for a shared hosting plan for iPage, you get a domain for free.
If you still cannot buy a domain, your dream of creating a website does not end. You can use a free domain and free hosting.
