In part 1, you should now already choose what you want your blog look like and how you work with. For my case, Blogger.com is not suitable becuase I am not SEO expertiest so I will often change layout for sure. Let me take you to next question.

The second question is how to organize posts in my new blog. What I mean is a kind of category. I don"t think that my blog will have only single topic for all posts. In fact, every posts are, in my mind, classified to a kind of hierarchical categories. By this way, posts in same topic are kept together and easier to be found by search engine.

Unfortunately, Blogger.com do not support category concept at all. However, Blogger.com has a workaround of this problem by letting us to create blogs as many as we want instead of creating categories for each blog. It is not good enough for me so I try WordPress to see its look. WordPress is a rock-solid blog engine which enables owner to build a blog site very quick based on standard capabilities, e.g., link block, category, blog, page, and uploading files. It is open source and free. Other alternative blog engine is Movable Type. It is the most feature-rich blog engine but not free. You have to pay a little money. It also supports category and uploading files.
