Answer 1)The answer depends on a few things. You can get free blogs through sites such as wordpress.com, where you will
be given a sub domain name for your blog address (eg. myblog.wordpress.com). However, if you want to host a
blog with your own domain name (eg. myblog.com) you need to have web hosting for the blog. You gain the
ability to customize far more when you are hosting your own blog.
If your blog is meant to look more professional or have more credibility, having your own domain name and
hosting will be the best option.
