Hello, dear readers of the site. Today the article will begin with the fact that we will try to define the word “blog”, find out what it is and how it differs from a regular website, which blogs are most often found on the Internet and, in fact, why they are needed and why they are easier than ordinary projects .
Well, then I’ll try to summarize all the information that is available on the site about how to create your own blog for free on the WordPress engine, how to promote it and start making money on it (but of course, everything in this world has to be paid, sometimes, however, money is replaced by gratitude, stroking one’s pride, etc.).
In the article you will find many links to other materials, because this will be a distributing publication for several sections of the website project at once.
What is a blog, why is it needed and what types of diaries are there?
Actually, today I want to write an article similar to the one I already published on the topic. By the way, the main difference between a blog and a regular website is that it can exist practically no traffic from search engines(without an influx of visitors from and).
Individual blog authors who have fairly developed communication skills (they communicate on thematic forums, social networks, and manage to fit in among other popular bloggers), but do not pay due attention to the optimization and promotion of their project, can have a readership only due to their popularity (Terehov, Borisov).
But if, in addition to popularizing your resource and yourself, you make efforts to conduct search engine optimization(read about this in the article about), then the results will be much better (Devaka can serve as an example). But let's first give a definition, what is a blog and why is it needed?
The word “blog” itself comes from a combination of the words web log, i.e. Internet Log or, in other words, internet diary(event recording). In general terms, it should be a collection of short entries (by the way, the service can serve as an example of brevity) left by one or more authors, which are arranged in chronological order (new entries at the top), and each such entry in such a diary can be accessed by its readers leave your own comments.
Those. a blog is a kind of dialogue between its author and people with similar interests or problems. As an online diary develops, it usually forms its own audience of readers, who are informed about the appearance of new materials, most often with the help of.
In general, in my opinion, one of the main features of a blog is availability of RSS channel, thanks to which it can be distinguished from a site or forum. There, too, of course, you can use RSS to broadcast news, but this is still not as important as for an online diary. But it would be impossible for a blogger to create and maintain his regular readership without this powerful and convenient tool.
In this case, the resource you create (even on a free engine) will belong only to you and over time you will be able to do very well. True, if you don’t give up ahead of time, because sometimes it comes to serious earnings only after a year or two.
There is practically no particular choice on which free engine to create your project on. WordPress is the clear leader in the field of blog building (and in general, the leader among all engines) and it does not have any serious or global shortcomings (everything is mostly small and can be successfully treated with the proper approach).
It’s not enough just to create your own online diary, you also need to optimize it so that the search engines Yandex and Google like it. Do you know how easy and quick it is to do this for WordPress? That’s right, it’s enough to install and configure one single plugin (or one of its analogues, if desired).
The thing is simply amazing, which is sorely lacking in Joomla. After this, consider that everything will be fine with internal blog optimization and all that remains is to add a few touches (and a plugin for creating an automatic one).
Even if your blog is not visited very much yet, then, firstly, do not despair and read about), and, secondly, you need to think about the future and prepare for a possible increase in popularity your blog. A very valuable (despite the fact that it is free) plugin will help you here. I couldn’t have lasted ten minutes without it - the hoster (when I lived on “ virtual hosting") blocked the site for excessive load on the server. And so, even with my current visitor numbers, I am on a completely affordable and inexpensive VPS tariff. Thanks to Hyper Cache for this.
For some reason, the default organization in WordPress is very inconvenient, in my opinion. blog page navigation(like, “next” - “previous”). But you can fix this problem in no time by installing and configuring the plugin (I spent a lot of time describing it, I hope that you will appreciate it and thank you by clicking on other social networks).
Well, you can also use it to improve and simplify blog navigation (I preferred the option without plugins, but you can use, for example,).
I also consider it mandatory to install and convenient to use on my blog a plugin that will allow your readers subscribe to new comments to certain articles. When a new comment appears on the blog, the user will receive a corresponding email.
What’s interesting is that once you create your own blog, you will immediately feel the joy of raking through tons of spam in comments. I advise you to use the method I have chosen to combat this ineradicable evil - the plugin.
As I mentioned just above, you need to configure it to work correctly immediately after creating a blog. It is clear that for this you will definitely have to use , but for more fine tuning RSS plugin might come in handy.
We can probably finish here regarding the main plugins. There are, of course, a number of nice additions, for example, the same plugin (code highlighting in articles), but if you don’t insert code into articles, then you won’t need it. You can further refine and diversify your blog comments by turning on the display and adding, for example, . By the way, I can “burn” mine. But just shh.
That’s it, now we can assume that from a technical point of view you have savvy your blog a little (just be sure to read about it, and also read about it, because this is important), but you still have to create a lot of articles for it and fill its pages with them. You can learn all the nuances of this difficult matter from the article about how, and most importantly, why, it should be used.
Optimization of an online diary, its promotion and promotion
Let's see again if everything is technical aspects blog search engine optimization you have completed:
- Do you have ?
- Have you already set it up?
- Are you already convinced when accessing existing or non-existent pages on your blog?
- Have you checked the correctness of formation and absence in different Urls?
- Be sure to find out if search engines have chosen your blog correctly ()
- Have you added your online diary to and in order to promptly receive signals about problems that search engines have encountered with your resource and track the success of its promotion?
- ? After all, if there are a large number of them, search engines may consider your project abandoned and not worthy of taking high positions in the search.
- How are things going with you? Google frankly says that this factor is taken into account when .
- Are you implementing it? If your project is periodically unavailable for some time, search engines will take this very, very seriously. In general, in this case you will lose much more than you will save on cheap hosting.
- Do you know how? After all, the inability to type quickly (your personal technical shortcoming) will lead to difficulties in promotion, because unique content is typed manually, not by copy-paste. In general, believe that no decent typing speed There will be nothing for you to do in blogging.
Have you done everything? And can you even type quickly? Well, then it’s time to start writing the first materials in your diary. Let’s say that you don’t have a problem with what exactly to write about, but I think it’s fundamentally wrong to write articles just like that (counting only on your readers’ understanding of them). A website or blog for people should be flexible and condescending to the level of search engines (the author compared their intelligence to the IQ of a six-year-old child), so that your texts would be understandable by Google and Yandex, and not just by readers whose intelligence significantly exceeds the development of search engines.
But these same search engines can lead you by the hand very, very many new readers. Everything in this world is interconnected and ambiguous. Is the idea clear? Now let's talk briefly about how to follow this idea.
It is possible that this bourgeois vision of successful blog promotion will be useful to you (the author of the most popular blog on SEO in the bourgeoisie speaks):
How to make the most money from your blog
So, now all that remains is to talk about making money from your online diary. In the article about making money on the Internet, the link to which was given at the beginning of the publication, I listed the most popular ways to generate income from their network, but let's see what comes out of this best for blog.
Actually, while blog traffic is not high, I would not recommend thinking about monetization at all. Those “pennies” that you receive will only lead to frustration and “give up.” Believe that as you gain heights, your blog income will not grow straight, but rather exponentially, so be patient and just work. Yes, it’s a little difficult, but if you like blogging, then you can handle it, and if not, then you shouldn’t even try, because nothing will work out “under pressure.”
After “gaining heights”, namely, achieving stable traffic in the region of several hundred uniques per day, you can think about the main way to make money on a blog - installing a code Yandex advertising network(this is the reverse side of Yandex Direct) or code Google Adsense(reverse side).
Yes, with low traffic the income will not be great, but as the blog develops, the profit will grow and again, most likely, faster than in linear progression. I definitely advise you to read my article, because your income will depend on many different nuances that you may simply not notice or ignore at first.
And further. First things first, be sure to thoroughly understand the rules of context systems. There are a lot of things you can't do there. In the worst case, you may be “weaned off the trough”, and it will be difficult to find a worthy replacement for contextual advertising to make money on your blog. You will need to go deep into the topic, try different advertising networks, teasers, affiliate programs, etc. Therefore, “take care of your honor from a young age” and “don’t play pranks.”
How much will your blog earn on YAN or Adsense? Don't know. If the blog has a “profitable topic” (in which expensive clicks in Direct or Adwords) and high traffic, there will be sky-high income. But no, there is no trial. Over time, your income may further increase due to the fact that your blog will be specifically targeted by advertisers interested in your audience.
After you manage to create and promote your blog and increase more or less traffic, you can also earn money from , and if the topic allows, then from (be careful with the latter, because Yandex is against “shock advertising” and it should be filtered using teasers). I also don’t recommend using any pop-up windows or popunders; search engines can severely punish you for this.
In general, I don’t recommend going overboard with advertising. I understand that with a small blog visit, you want to get the most out of it, if only to prove to yourself that you are not working in vain. But there is no need to rush... An abundance of advertising in most cases will have exactly the opposite effect - you are guaranteed to kill your blog and kill all your efforts. You need everything in moderation, and the later you start active monetization, the less advertising you will need to run to satisfy your needs. Ideally, it is best to strangle the “toad” at first.
There is another option writing advertising reviews or announcements. In this case, the main condition for the advertiser is not to receive a backlink open for indexing, but to post a review of his service, service or something else on a visited blog with the audience he needs, who will be interested in this product.
Don't approve? You think that “it’s not worth selling.” Well... I’ll just say that in addition to money from advertising reviews, you can also get completely unexpected benefits. For example, when studying the link mass leading to my blog, I find a lot of links placed specifically for custom articles. These are the advertisers themselves, and those who liked these articles. Oddly enough, it all depends on the approach and how “soulfully” even “advertising” material is written. In general, it’s up to you whether to write for money or not. Personally, I accept both points of view.
Can earn money from affiliate programs, attracting referrals to them from the pages of your blog (here we talk about this in more detail, and about the terrible word). You can find a wagon and a small cart on the network for affiliate programs for different topics. Most of them are bullshit, but in every pile of manure there is a chance to find a pearl. I'm currently actively working with these:
- Bestchange is a popular online electronic currency exchanger that pays for the actions of attracted referrals.
- Vktarget- a service for making money on your accounts in in social networks. Pays honestly.
- Rukapcha- another option for “earning money for everyone”, which can be used on blogs on topics related to earning money.
- WorkZilla- exchange
- GoGetLinks- a popular exchange of the so-called " eternal links" On a wide range of blogs, you can attract referrals to it.
- MiraLinks- another popular exchange, but in the field of “article promotion”
- RotaPost- a popular exchange of “eternal links from blogs”.
- Etxt- probably the best of the copywriting exchanges, at least in terms of income from referrals.
- MegaIndex is a popular online resource for website promotion.
- Popova's partner- video courses. It was better before, but still more or less so.
- Paid survey- an option to make money from surveys.
- Qcomment- comment exchange.
On some blogs that cannot be monetized in other ways, the main source of income can be selling links in the exchanges already mentioned above:
- GoGetLinks— read about the nuances of working with it.
- GetGoodLinks— description of the opportunity to sell links from pages with PR for a lot of money.
- RotaPost — full review exchange opportunities.
You will need to add one paragraph of text to a new or old article on your blog with the link specified by the advertiser and that’s it, the money is already in your pocket. And so on until the articles in your diary run out. Exchanges and advertisers themselves, as a rule, will not allow you to sell more than one backlink from a post, which will not allow you to go beyond the bounds of decency.
This method is only relatively safe and you should not be afraid of sanctions from search engines only if you are not too arrogant. One of the secondary blogs, the monetization of which I am responsible for, ended up under Minusinsk (Tiz was reset and traffic from Yandex disappeared), but a month later it came out from under it and is still in operation. True, during the filter period, several dozen links were removed from the advertisements and, perhaps, this was the reason for removing the filter.
A little bit more safe way making money on a blog (or its paid promotion) - article exchanges:
- Miralinks, a detailed manual for which you will find.
- WebArtex is a relatively young but promising article exchange. Detailed review WebArtex see.
There you don’t have to write anything yourself (not even a single paragraph). You will be provided with the entire article with a link to the advertiser’s website, and prerequisite is that the texts are unique. Here is a way to get free unique content (albeit, burdened with links built into it), for which, by the way, you will also be paid a decent amount. In general, babble.
Yes, earned from your blog money will have to be withdrawn in the form of WebMoney(), which you can work with different ways through various keepers: , or through the less common . True, to avoid this electronic money, it is better to work through it, tying all your transactions with web money to confirmations via a cell phone.
Well, or in RuNet, operations through are also common, but this does not change the essence. Then you will have to withdraw the money you earned from electronic signs into real life in one way or another. This is usually done either through exchangers, or through money transfer services, or through bank cards, or in some other way.
At first, I didn’t withdraw electronic money into real life - I spent it all on paying for various services. But after the blog began to gain momentum, most of my earnings were directly to a current account and I pay a six percent tax on them to my native state. In the same article, I described a method for withdrawing Webmoney by bank transfer through a guarantee agency.
In general, something like this. It seems like I haven't forgotten anything. Now, I think, for you to create your blog on a free engine, optimize it and start making money on it will not be a problem. Just remember that not everything will happen so quickly. Blogging takes an incredible amount of work and time - you need to live, breathe and enjoy it, otherwise you will definitely give up.
In the first year I was able to earn practically nothing, and only in the second year did I earn something somewhere and somehow little by little... In general, patience and more patience, and everything will be, in any case, this is what is needed hope and systematically move forward, even resting your forehead against the wall (what if it breaks).
Here we have not considered all the technical and organizational issues that a webmaster has to solve. Therefore, I strongly recommend that you watch the video from the Yandex webmaster, where they reveal very clearly the basics of launching a website and possible mistakes , which can ruin all your efforts:
Good luck to you! See you soon on the pages of the blog site
You can watch more videos by going to
Greetings, dear readers of the blog site! Most likely, many of you have heard about the most popular and free platform (engine) for creating Wordpress websites. And if anyone hasn’t heard, you can take a look at the page where we talk about content management systems, what are cms engines and how can they be identified?. So, for those users who are not yet familiar with the programming language, but want create your own blog on the Internet, you can try to start doing it on the free blog hosting Wordpress.com.
Of course, every free blog site where you can create a personal blog, has its pros and cons. But, in my opinion, the most important advantages of a free blog platform Wordpress.com– this is the absence of third-party advertising, as well as on blogspot. And, of course, anyone can create a block without special knowledge of a programming language.
Wordpress.com hosting already has the WordPress site management system in Russian installed, which allows a novice user to immediately begin creating their own blog. Of course, like many free sites, Wordpress.com has restrictions (for example, a ban on placing contextual advertising), but to maintain your blogs, diaries This resource is very convenient. Therefore, who thought about doing sites on wordpress.com For making money, this free platform is not suitable. Although you can easily get used to it in a week or two, and if everything works out and you want to continue, you can transfer your blog to paid hosting and buy a second-level domain, where all the opportunities for earning money will become available. In order to create your own account to create a blog on Wordpress.com, you must have a mailbox ending in com, net or etc. Unfortunately, when registering an account mailboxes to ru, ua, by, etc., the system does not accept. If anyone does not have a suitable mailbox, you can open it on Gmail.com. So, to open an account, you can immediately fill out a simple registration form, as in the example below.
In the “blog address” field, enter a previously thought-up name for the future blog at English language. In the future it will be reflected as the name of your blog. wordpress.com. If the name is not taken, a check mark will appear at the end. The username field will automatically contain the blog name. In the future, it can be changed as desired. After filling out the password field and specifying email address, click Create Blog, and you will be redirected to a page where you will be asked to complete the registration by checking email and activate your account within two days. So, after activation, you will be taken to the “console” page of your account, which will be located at http:// your blog name.wordpress.com/wp-admin/. It is from this page that your blog is managed. And in the future, you can independently configure your account and blog as you wish. By the way, after activating your account, you can create blogs on wordpress.com in unlimited quantities. For those who first decided to make their blog on the wordpress.com service, I recommend installing it in your browser automatic website translator. Since, even though the installed WordPress engine is in Russian, there are still places where there is no translation from English. Let's use the example of the blog I registered to see what happened and what changes we can start making.
Edit the main page of the blog and add the first entry.
By default, on the WordPress.com site, after activating your account, a custom blog design (template), a home page and a page about the blog (About) are created. In order to see what the newly created blog looks like, from the “console” page (it can also be called the blog control panel), in the upper left corner of the page, click on the name of the blog.
In my case yasurala. The blog home page will open in a new window. In my example, I ended up with a page like this with a custom design (template) and a welcome note in English. Someone may end up with a completely different design, which we will return to changing below.
To begin with, I decided to change the entry to home page(greeting in English), to your entry. To do this, on the “console” page, go to “1 record”.
Select the title “Hello world!” "change".
In the editor that opens, replace the title and text with your pre-prepared one and click “Update”, with right side editor. Then click on the “view changes” button or on the blog name in the upper left corner of the console.
So I replaced the entry on the main page with my new text. In order to achieve the same result, you can take a different path. In the “console” panel on the left side, select “Records” - “Add new”. Insert your title, text and “publish” into the editor. Then we return to “Records” - “All records”, select the title of the record we do not need and delete it. The result will be the same as in the first case.
Editing the blog title and description.
The correct title and description of the future site (as well as the title of any new post) plays a big role in showing it search engines. In my example we see this picture.
The title of the blog doesn’t suit me and neither does the description, especially in English. To edit, go to the “console” page in “Options” on the left side - “General”. I am changing the title to “Notes on interesting services Internet" and short description on "Programs and online services for beginners and Web masters" and save the changes.
We are changing the blog design.
To change the design of your blog, blog hosting WordPress.com has more than a hundred free themes. To change the blog theme, just go to “ Appearance" - "Themes". Select any free theme you like and click “Activate”.
What an example of this blog looks like on the Internet can be seen at this link http://yasurala.wordpress.com. So, dear readers, having decided to create a blog on the wordpress.com service, in just a few days you can freely learn how to manage your own website. The human-friendly and simple interface of the free WordPress engine will allow you to create quite nice blogs, even without special training materials.
Of course, those who start creating their own website for the first time will definitely have questions, the answers to which can always be found online or asked right here in the comments.
Becoming a blogger is very simple - just start a blog. Besides, you can create a blog for free. To do this, just register on the website wordpress.com. Let's do this together. As an example, I will create a temporary blog for myself.
1. Create an account on WordPress.com
To get started, go to registration page and get yourself account. Fill out all the fields, much like I did.
After you fill out all the fields, click the " Create a blog".
The first field specifies the URL of your future blog. I used a beautiful version of my last name, and now my blog will be available to users at http://vermutoff.wordpress.com.
You can also link it to your blog. But I will tell you how to do this in the following lessons.
2. Blog activation - completion of registration
To complete registration and create a blog for free on WordPress, you need to check your email. There you will find a letter with a blog activation button - click the " button Activate blog".
After activating the blog, you will be taken to the page for choosing a theme for the blog, but this can be postponed until later, since you can change the theme at any time in the admin panel of your blog.

Hello dear readers! If you go to the Yandex or Google search engine and type the phrase there how to create a blog, then the search engine will give you as many as 70 million answers, and this is at the time of writing this post, and now, when you are reading these lines, perhaps more.
This proves that the topic of blogging is very, very popular. In this post I’ll tell you how to create a blog on WordPress and not just tell you, but give you specific step-by-step instructions. So that even a beginner, using these instructions, gets a clear understanding of what and how to do when blog creation.
Just 5-10 years ago, no one had heard or knew anything about the word “blog,” which came to us from the West. Now, this word will not surprise anyone. Many popular artists, musicians, athletes, and politicians maintain personal blogs. With their help, they communicate with their fans, talk about events in their personal lives, share their thoughts, etc.
In recent years, introducing a blog has become very popular among ordinary people. People start blogs and share stories about their personal lives, their travels, their work, their hobbies, or teach something. And some, in addition to maintaining their online magazine, also earn good money from it.
I wrote above that in this publication I will talk about how to create a blog on WordPress, so below, I suggest starting to study the material with brief definitions of keywords.
Blog is a special type of web resource, which is characterized as a public online magazine, the main content of which is systematically added entries containing text, images, videos, and personal photographs.
WordPress is a free, publicly available system with which you can create websites from scratch and manage their content without technical skills or knowledge. People also call it the “heart” or “engine” of the site.
We've sorted out the keywords, now let's get down to business. For ease of understanding, I will break down the process creating a blog onWordPress several steps:
Choosing the topic the blog will be dedicated to
- We purchase a thematic domain
- Choosing a reliable hosting
- Create a database
- Install WordPress on hosting
By completing these simple 5 steps, you will have your own personal, ready-made blog. All you have to do is do basic settings, install the necessary plugins, create pages and fill your creation with useful and high-quality content.
Choosing a blog topic
Before making your personal website, you must definitely choose its theme, because the bright future of your blog will depend on this. The topic is chosen once and for all, so you need to take this issue seriously and responsibly. You probably have a question about how to do this correctly? Everything is very simple. Below I invite you to answer a few open questions:
What is your favorite hobby?
What business are you an expert in?
What would you sincerely like to share with other people?
What do your friends often ask you to do?
What do you spend 70% of your life talking about with everyone?
What would you do for nothing if you didn't have to work to make a living?
Have you answered all your questions? Great! Let's move on. Once your blog has high traffic and several thousand regular readers, you will most likely want to monetize it. Therefore, you need to find out whether your topic is in demand among other people.
And this, as you understand, the most important point, because if, for example, you chose the topic “breeding orangutans at home,” then creating a blog on this topic is simply pointless. There are simply no people interested in this topic.
Now let's analyze the demand and popularity of your theme. The best way to do this is in several ways:
Search the Internet for forums on the topic of your choice (their presence indicates popularity and relevance)
look for groups on social networks
find magazines and books
perform an analysis of key queries on the Yandex Wordstat service
I think the first 3 methods are clear to you, but let’s talk about the last one in a little more detail. To analyze key queries, you need to go to wordstat.yandex.ru. Enter the name of your chosen topic in the field and click the “Select” button.
I warn you right away, this service is absolutely free, but to start using it, you need to log in. You can log in in several ways, enter your Yandex Mail and password (if you have one) or log in through social network accounts.
As an example, we will analyze the key queries of the topic “construction of houses from timber” and see that this area is very popular on the Internet - 28.680 thousand requests per month:
In my opinion, the minimum number of requests should be 10 thousand, if there are fewer requests for your topic, then I do not recommend creating a blog or website on this topic.
We purchase a thematic domain
So, the topic of your future Internet project has been chosen. Now you need to select a domain. Choosing a domain for your blog is an interesting and creative activity. I spoke in more detail on this topic in the article “How to register a domain name? “, so I don’t see the point in repeating myself here. I'll give you just a few tips on choosing a domain name. The domain should be: preferably short, easy to remember and clearly characterizes the topic of your blog or website. We continue to look at the question of how to create a blog on WordPress and move on to the next step.
Choosing a reliable hosting
Creating a database
To run a blog on the WordPress system you need a database MySQL data. You probably immediately have questions about what a database is and why it is needed?
Database– this is the place where all published information on the site (passwords, texts, pages, comments, etc.) is recorded and stored. As I already wrote, WordPress is the heart of the site, but the database is, abstractly speaking, the brains of the site.
To create a database, go to the control panel of your hosting (in my case it’s Makhost) and go to the tab Service Management/Databases:
For other hosts, database creation looks similar. Next, a window will open in front of you, in it click on the “Create database” icon:
For security reasons, I have hidden my data. After clicking on the “Create base” icon, a page will appear on which you will need to come up with a base for your base. Name , login And password :
If you don’t want to come up with a password yourself, then click on the hash mark, the program will automatically generate an excellent one for you, secure password. Keep it in a safe place. After filling in all required fields, click on the “Add” button. Congratulations, the database has been successfully created! Now you need to wait some time until the base connects, usually it takes about 10 minutes.
Installing WordPress on hosting
Finally, we have come to the last, final step - installing the site engine on the hosting. In general, installing WordPress may seem complicated and time-consuming to a beginner, and there is some truth in this. But in our case, the installation will take place in auto mode, which means that we will have to do practically nothing.
We will not perform any complex operations; the entire installation process will take no more than 15 minutes. We only need to click on the mouse button a few times and wait for the program to complete the installation itself. Now you will see this for yourself.
Attention: Not all hosting providers have this modern, advanced function automatic installation engines sites. Therefore, if you don’t want technical hassles, make sure that your hoster has this function. I posted my blog on Makhost
and I can say with complete confidence that he has this feature.
I will show the installation of the engine on my hosting. Go to the Makhost control panel, go to the tab Service Management/Application Installation:
After clicking on the “Install applications” item, you will see a page with a list of automatically installed applications:
Find WordPress (fourth line from the top) and click on the “Install” button. Next, the following window will appear:
Here you need to specify the site where WordPress will be installed, then you need to select the database that we created in the previous step. We do not write anything in the “Installation path” field (leave it as default). At the very bottom, in the administrator details section, your login And password, you will soon need them to log into the administrative panel of the site, so we copy them and save them in a safe place.
Now click on the “Install application” button. Installing WordPress It will take some time 10-15 minutes. Next, you will be automatically redirected to the following page, where you will see the installation status:
To view the installation status, refresh the page periodically. Once the installation is complete, click on your link to go to your blog's admin panel:
Next, an authorization page will open in front of you, enter your username and password and you will be taken to the admin panel. Hurray, your personal blog has been created! Now you need to install the main plugins, make basic settings and fill your web resource with useful content, but these are already topics for other posts... Read my blog and create your website with me!

Scheme for creating a WP blog in 10 minutes
In fact, there are two ways to create a blog on WordPress:
- On the local server of your computer with subsequent transfer of the blog to hosting on the Internet;
- Directly on the Internet, using automatic CMS installations, which is provided by some Hosting companies.
Now in a little more detail, the first method is more professional, but also takes much more time. The bottom line is that you will need to install local server to your computer using Denwer package, then manually install WordPress, and only after completely setting up the blog can you transfer it to the Internet. The advantage of this blog is that the blog will go on the Internet fully configured and optimized. Disadvantages: time consuming, complexity.
The second method, if you do not take into account the time required to register a domain, will take no more than 10 minutes.
For those who decide to master the basics of website building, knowledge of the first method will be useful. And for those who want to start a blog and post on it, for example, culinary recipes or their personal notes, I recommend the second method. Save a lot of time and a lot of nerves.
What you need to create a blog
In order not to mislead you, I will immediately explain what we need and why.
- 10 minutes of your personal time, not counting several hours for domain activation, usually from 1 to 6.
- Brain, patience and straight hands. I mean this as a joke, but remember, the process of creating a website is very demanding on these resources. Once you decide, you will have to be patient, learn a lot of new things and not screw up.
- Hosting. This is where your blog will be stored. Here there is a choice between free hosting and paid (roughly from 100 per month).
- . This is the address of your blog on the Internet. To register it, you will need your personal data.
