Own Your Blog or Else! Easy WordPress Install
Watch this video tutorial and see how simple it is to get online with a blog today! Create a blog using free software from wordpress.org and get tips on why, if you want to become a serious blogger, if you want to make money with your blog or, if you want to control your blog, then using free blogs such as blogger.com or wordpress.com is NOT an option … You must own your blog. Here’s why …if you use hosted solutions such as blogger.com or wordpress.com, they can delete your site without your permission and there is nothing you can do about it. Also, using hosted sites to host your blog means that you have limited opportunities of monetizing your blog because some of them don’t allow you to make the most of advertising with say Google AdSense. WordPress.com for example makes it very clear that it is against their terms of service to commercialize your WordPress.com hosted blog by hosting paid advertising and will result in your blog being deleted. In fact, I’ve just been reading one forum where there is a reader called “Rainmaker” and he seems to have made it his job to report people who are commercializing their WordPress blogs and within no time, their sites have been deleted by WordPress. So don’t say you haven’t been warned. What you need to do is go to WordPress.org and download their free software and then upload the software to the server where you have your own hosting account, using your own domain name. Alternatively, you can use the automated feature found …

This video was so informative. I have been trying to figure out how to make a blog for my church for over 3 hours and I just knew it wasn’t going to happen. But by chance, I clicked on your video and figured it out with your help.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

Ok after over a week of debating over this program called SocialBlaster, I made my decision today purchase it and its been the next best decision I have made in a long time.
Simple, plus very effective…traffic to my wordpress blog from over 40 + networks!
NO MORE iMACROS bullchyt for me…THANK GOD!!
You’re not on your own domain. Your blog is still on the general WP servers. Go thru each step again according to Trish’s setup. Re-do everything. Use a template (there are many good free Wp themes out there) so you can see the difference. Buy a tech saavy friend dinner. NOt nessaryily an engineer– just saavy. MIchelle Macphearson, Ed Dale.– running now. For gods sake, get your hosting provider via chat– that’s what they’re there for. Good luck
Hey Queen!!! I love your video, very informative… I just want your advice on where to buy my domain (best prices) and hosting… Thanks in advance, and You sure are a Queen!!! keep it up…
Yes please ! Best hosting price and Domain , the best one ive found is Namecheap and Hostgator .. please help !
I tend to purchase my domain names from GoDaddy and hosting, I prefer Bluehost although I do have a couple of accounts with Hostgator.
Hope that helps!
Go for it! Both these are good. I tend to prefer Bluehost to hostgator but they are still good.
hi, im really stuck on my blog,ive deleted my plugin from the panel and now i cant get it back can you help me please,im really stuck i have no idea what to do
very helpful
I find that having a cool title to your blog really helps. For example, my blog used to be something like blablahblog(.)blogspot(.)com, but then I switched it to diyeinstein(.)com (do it yourself Einstein! Creative, I know). I find a lot of people who view my blog actually type diyeinstein into Google, which is a rare path for starter blogs. I think it is purely the interesting name that lets me get those views.
Check it out, diyeinstein (just type it into Google, it WILL be first link!)
I did – checked it out … very novel. I will have to try making the paper helicopter with my daughter since she’s always wanting the fastest paper aeroplane.
In terms of domain names, I agree to make it interesting and where possible, add your keywords in it. It seems the top internet marketers had been ignoring this for some time but now they are realizing it’s what the search engines want and so they want that extra SEO point.

OMG thanks a lot!!
Great video to help people to get started on WordPress. I myself have several videos on my channel to help web designers to get started. Check out my videos like How to Auto Install WordPress, and to get to the next level check out How Do I Register A Domain Name? My video Build a Niche Website explains the psychological processes of running a website such as waiting patiently to try and make money and I explain that it takes real marketing to get a website started, even on wordpress.
Hey Trish, got a question would i have to go buy a domain name if i installed this type of blog that you are talking about, I want to do a blog but I want it to have a domain name so that i can add GoogleAds and all.
