- WordPress

to create a blog. Highly customizable thanks to the impressive
quantity of plugins and themes you can install, WordPress blogs
can also take advantage of a good spam filter, RSS, real-time
traffic statistics, and an impressive community support that
helps you sort your blogging issues. But if you need an ad-free
blog, a customized domain, content-export features, or advanced
privacy options, you can upgrade to WordPress premium
features. Prices available on the site.
