If you’re reading this, it’s likely that you’re interested in starting your own WordPress blog. Well, there are a few things that you need to do in order to get started.
First and foremost, you’ll need a WordPress account. If you don’t already have one, sign up for a free account at WordPress.com.
Once you have an account, create a new blog by clicking on the “Create a New Blog” button on the top left corner of the WordPress.com home page.
Next, you’ll need to install the WordPress plugin Jetpack. Jetpack is a free plugin that comes with the default installation of WordPress and it provides a number of features and benefits, such as:
A custom domain name for your blog (optional)
A custom logo for your blog (optional)
A custom header for your blog (optional)
A custom footer for your blog (optional)
The ability to add password protection to your blog (optional)
The ability to schedule posts and manage posts in bulk
Once Jetpack is installed and activated, click on the “Settings” button on the Jetpack dashboard and then click on the “Posts” tab. Click on the “Add New Post” button and fill out the required fields.
You’ll also need to provide a title for your post and a brief description of what it will contain. Click on the “Publish” button and your post will be live on your website!.
