Step Four:

Here there are TONS of templates, but since we are focused on your first blog use the "Use Case" filter and select "Blog".

Step Five:

Pick the blog and tech stack that suites your liking. My recommendation would be the Blog Starter Kit, the NextJS template, since it is from the Vercel team!
