there are two ways, one id you can create a "public date DateVaribale{get;set;}
and <apex:inputtext value="{!DateVaribale}/>

but in this case you will have two issues, you will not get pop up calender
and there is no vaidation on date formate, so you have to write javascript for the same


Or you can do this

public <Opportunity> TempOppbjFordate{get;set;}

in contructor inilazie wiht null
public CreateAccount()
{
TempOppbjFordate = new Opportunity();
}

then in vf page 

<apex:inputfield value="{!TempOppbjFordate.Closedate}"/>

and then in the end in saveRecord()  method , move the value from Closedate to DateOfBirth 

 GoogleBlog__c blog = new GoogleBlog__c();
...
..
..
if(TempOppbjFordate.Closedate != null)
{
blog.DateOfBirth = TempOppbjFordate.Closedate;
}



in  this case, you will get pop up calender
and there will be automatice vaidation from salesforce on date formate,

and in plase of opportunity you can use and object and in plase of close date you can use any date filed from the object

It because of you are try to convert a null into date, by using Date.valueOf(DateOfBirth);

put a null check before using Date.valueOf, as ,mentioned below

if(DateOfBirth != null && DateOfBirth != '')
{
Date.valueOf(DateOfBirth);
}

Also i dont see you bind DateOfBirth with any of input field so it will not get populated please also take case of that if you want to populate date of birth

Hi SRK, Can you please tell me how do i bind DOB to input field to make it populated
