My suggestion is if your blog has many writing contents then wordpress will be the right choice, but for design blog I suggest you use Joomla instead.

> I just wanted to know that there are how many blogging platforms?

There are many blogging platforms. Just to name a few:
WordPress, Blogger, TypePad, Tumblr, Posterous Spaces, Weebly, and LiveJournal.

> And which blogging platform is suitable for my blog.
That entirely depends on what you want to do. Different platforms specialize in different things. Some of those are multimedia, SEO, user-friendliness, customizability, social media integration, budget, etc.

Once you figure out what's important to you, you can find a platform that will meet your needs.

first of all best of luck for your blog promotion Happy

There are many blogging platforms available online like WordPress.com, Blog.com, Blogger, TypePad Micro, Jux, Tumblr, Posterous Spaces, Blogetery, Weebly, LiveJournal, but i want to personally suggest you to use one blogging platform to post your blog. In this all platform bloggerspot.com is the best as it is product of Google.com and crawl within a day, so try this platform.

Besides this you can also create your own blogging platform, it would also a good option as it will be more customized.

You can also post your blog on guest blogging platform as it gives you more visitors.

If you are blogging for the first time, use blogger. It is simple to create a blog on it. Moreover, it is owned by Google, so it is easily searchable on Google. Once you get your target audience, you can switch to wordpress.
