1. Installing WordPress: This is pretty self-explanatory. The first step should be to install WordPress on your host. WordPress has a great guide for how this should not delay. Some webhosts also has something called Fantastico, if your hosts doe, s are in luck! Fantastico will install WordPress for you automatically.

2. Log in to your new site: Again self explanatory. How often have access to my WordPress site is the addition / wp-admin after my domain name in the web browser address bar.

3. Make sure your e-mail addresses are defined: This is important because this is where you will receive updates and password if you never lost. There are two places to make sure your password is set. The first is in Settings-> General. The other point that is in your user menu – you’ll want to make sure your admin email is correct.

4. Move your permalinks: I recommend it to all customers. In the Setup menu (wordpress administrator) there is section for Permalinks. Open the menu and choose your new style of permalinks. Towards the end of the clean URL structure suggest select Custom and enter the following sequence: /%postname%/.This will make the title of your message is the web address.

5. Add your title and slogan: Under General Settings again add the name and theme of your blog. The name is what you want – keyword rich is better. The slogan is a description of your site.

6. Choose a theme: If you use a theme (that) you can find a wide selection of WordPress use their own back office. Just browse Appearance-> Themes and then use the tools we have to find a theme. Once you find one to your liking download and activate it.

7. Installing plugins: Any plugins you want to add, do so now. The plugins are very flexible so you can add more later if you discover that you need. Install the plugins you think you need. I suggest you are definitely All-in-One SEO and Google XML Sitemaps. They will help with both the SEO and each has great support that you need to know more. I would also suggest Askimet but it is already installed.

8. Enable askiment: I think you should do as soon as possible. Askimet is a great spam blocking plugin ensures that your site is full of comment spam. Once you start adding content, you will notice the top of spam. Askimet has a huge database of spam comments so you usually can detect and block any in place. If he makes a mistake, then you can manually replace a particular comment and you’ll really learn from this. The only exception to this is that you have to get a WordPress API key. To obtain the API key must register for a free account at wordpress.com. No big deal, but an additional step that you may not be aware.

9. Check your privacy: In the Settings menu is a position of Privacy. Click on it and see if the blog is visible to everyone. If not, Google will not index any of its contents!

10. Add information: Apparently, there will be a Widgets menu. You can use this functionality to add to your site using WordPress sidebars. If you have chosen a theme widget ready (mostly), have one or two sides (or more) in place. In the menu on the sidebar widgets appear and you can drag and drop “widgets” for him. These widgets can be things like a search bar, an archive, a calendar, a list of recent posts or text / html table can put something there, even more than that available widgets. There are also standards for discharge if they do not all you need.

11. Create content: now you can create some content! You can add pictures, photo galleries, etc. .. on page one can also start making posts – remember to create categories to keep them organized. Enjoy the label function and it will be very useful when you have hundreds of posts. She contributes to research on your site too.

This is the minimum to start with WordPress. You have to learn much more, but when it does, be glad you made the switch to WordPress. Happy blogging!
