If you have never run a website or blog before, a Blogger blog is an excellent place to start.
Head over to Blogger.com and sign up for a free account and start a blog. Try to pick a subject you know something about or something you are interested in. Google will send you an email – remember to CLICK ON THE LINK to verify your account so that you don’t lose your blog.
It doesn’t matter at all if you change your mind later – you can delete your blog and start again.
At this stage, you just want to get the feel of what it is like to run a website or blog.
If you have any problems setting up your new account and blog, download this illustrated tutorial - how to set up a blogger blog - to guide you through.
To give you some ideas, here are some of my own Blogger blogs:

http://friendlycomputertraining.blogspot.com/ (this one is seriously out of date!)
When you’ve set up your blog, come back here and I’ll start telling you how to “monetise” it. You are at the start of a long road. There are several courses that show you how to start earning money online in 30 days. That’s the sort of timescale you should be looking at – although if you are feeling fuzzy headed or in a relapse, it will take longer.
Just work when you can.
When you’ve set up your blog, why not post a link to it in a comment here, so we can all see it. (Don’t worry, if you change your mind, or start again, just let me know and I’ll edit your comment to show your new blog.)
