Blogging is not dead, not dead, and not dead. Blogging has just been updated so you will have to update yourself accordingly.
You have to do first thing is select the niche according to your interest. The topic you should choose which you can talk about more, and more. This is called perfect niche selection for a blog.
Another important thing you should do is choose the best hosting on which you can run your wordpress website. You can choose Hostinger, Bluehost, and DigitalOcean too. This three are I personally prefer.
Now question is:
👉 How to design the blog?
👉 How to connect to the hosting?
For this I think YouTube videos are perfect solution, through videos you can better understand the blog setups. I prefer you to watch videos of Website Learners, Key2blogging.
✔️ Keep writing and posting 10 articles a day continuously. This enables search engines to draw attention to your blog.
And yeah! You ask for budget also. I encourage you to purchase minimum 36–48 months of hosting, for that you have budget of 10,000/- rupees ($120 approx.).
💰 $100 to $120 for 3–4 years is not a big deal. Blogging is not expensive but it takes a lot of your time but the gift you get in return is worth it.
That's all.
