Some of the best I have found are from SPress. They have great user support and its very reasonable ($60) compared to many others out there. I have a link to their site on mine if you are interested. You can use free Templates as well but I have found these to have many great options for producing a blog that more mimics a website. Im in the process of upgrading my blog with it as we speak. Hope you check them out.

All you need to do after installation is to write your posts or pages, right within the Wordpress admin. And find a theme you like if you cannot design it yourself. If you want to attempt to design your own theme, about the only thing you can use is Notepad or a text editor. Other html programs can be used but you need to know what you're doing, so you write clean code. HTML programs are not known for this. You do need to know HTML in order to create pages, whether you use a program or not.
