I have a main website under a .be extension as it is mainly aiming at the Belgian market.
Now I want to start a separate blog with topics that are related to my .be-website.

I currently also own the .com domain and think about putting the blog there.

So website would be like example.be and blog would be under example.com

Can that create any problems for ranking, etc. ?

no problem. Google is pretty good to pinpoint right visitors recognizing the language of the site.

Best practice is creating and storing content in a subfolder of the domain you want to increase ranking and visibility. However, if you already have content under something such as a subdomain, it's strongly recommended that you do not move it (unless there's not too much content yet).

You can use hreflang tags and international targeting configurations in Webmaster Tools to assist with your .be efforts. I'm not an expert on international targeting as I don't do much myself, but this may provide some insight.
