6. Option - This is comment option you have to keep it default no need to change it

Basic blogger setting

1. Title - Do enough research before confirming it, although you can change it anytime but rather than change it frequently set a one time title for your blog which will last long till your blog exists 
2. Description - It should describe everything about your blog which help in SEO and also the reader will get a clear idea about your blog posts
3. Blog language - select your language in which you want to write your content this help blogger to identify your blog
4. Adult content - If your content is adult content then make sure you allow that select which will provide a pop-up notification whenever a reader will visit your site whenever a reader 
5. Google Analytics Property ID - Google analytics is the best tool to track your blog. You need to create a Google Analytics account and connect it with your blogger account by inserting the ID ( you will get it in google analytics account ) 
6. Favicon - It is the logo of your blog which will display on your blog tab

Other than that all setting keep it as a default setting 

Make sure you enable this meta description setting so that you are able to write a description for your blog post

Also, make sure you enable Https setting because Https shows that your website is secure and Http means not secure 

People will only trust only those website which is secure and will feel confident to share their detail like email id, or any other information

The best part is that blogger provides it for free but in other blogging platforms you need to pay to get https setting in your blog post

It is up to you how much blog post do you want to display in the first page of your blog and I'll suggest you to keep it default 

Comment setting - Change it to only google account user. This setting means who all can comment on your blog, if anyone can comment on it you end up getting spammy comments and you can't able to report them.

So better select it to one google account user

Select your Time-Zone - Blogger will work according to your time zone and it will help you when you want to schedule your blog post.

You can appearance of your blog through layouts. 

You can change it as what you want to show in harder, footer, sidebar. There is no restriction in changing layouts you can do whatever you want
