Easy Steps to Start a Blog
There are a few simple steps that you will need to complete to
start your blog:
1.
Choose your blogging platform
3.
Configure your blog
4.
Design your blog
5.
Start creating useful content that serves readers
Step
1: Choose a Blogging Platform
To start a blog you’ll need to select a blogging platform – or a
tool that helps you to get your content up onto the web.
Step
2: Secure a Domain Name and Set Up Your Blog Hosting
Step
3: Set Up Your Blog
If you’ve gone with Bluehost as your domain and hosting
provider, installing WordPress is super simple. In fact Bluehost have created a
simple video to show you exactly how to do it.
Step
4: Configure and Design Your Blog
If this is your first experience of WordPress you might be
looking at the dashboard and wondering what you’ve done by installing it – it
feels overwhelming doesn’t it!
Don’t worry – you’ll pick this up in no time and just need a
good walk through!
Step
5: Start creating useful content that serves readers
OK – hopefully by now you’ve got your domain, hosting, have
installed WordPress and have your theme installed. You have started a blog… but
you’re not a blogger until you start creating some content for your blog!
I can’t really tell you what to write on your blog for your
first post – because it is something that will vary a lot from blogger to
blogger – but I’ll share some links below that might help give you some
starting points.
What I can point you to is a couple of helpful videos from our
friends at Bluehost again.
