An article from professional blogger Pete Harris which reveals the secrets on how to set up a blog on WordPress. Discover the secrets within a free step by step training guide.

Hello, Pete Harris here, and many people who want to know how to set up a blog on WordPress think that they must be some kind of tech wizard to get everything set up correctly. Sadly, this stops many people from starting but the simple facts are these. If you can use a keyboard and have some basic computer skills then you can create your own blog. That is why I am here to help you.

I first entered the blogging sphere some around 2013. like many people I looked for the right platform to enable me to get my message out to the world.

My initial thoughts about building a website or blog were that you did need to be technically gifted. I had researched the topic of website building and heard these horror stories of having to know HTML and specific code. Then there was something called FTP which transferred files from one server to another. Frankly the thought of all that techno babble really put me off but I was determined to find a solution.

Was Google’s Blogger Platform The Solution?

So, I started to use Google’s blogging platform called Blogger because it seemed quite simple to get up and running. It was a drag and drop page editor, but it had limited functionality. I was initially using it for affiliate marketing. The trouble was that the design element was in my opinion very poor. It simply didn’t give that professional look and feel that I wanted.

I continued with Blogger for a while but soon realised that I needed another platform. One which would give me the professional appearance I was looking for. I must admit I had heard of WordPress. Therefore I started to investigate using that platform for my blogs and websites.

Now when it comes to WordPress there are two platforms which can confuse people like it did me. The first is WordPress.com which is contained on their own servers. However you are regulated to some extent by their terms and conditions. When I investigated WordPress.com I realised that they were not suitable for business blogs. They had restrictions on what you could and couldn’t do in relation to monetizing content. Also at that time you couldn’t have your own custom domain name.

The other option was to have the WordPress script installed on your own domain and that was through WordPress.org. With this you had total control over the content you published because you had independent servers through website hosting companies. This seemed the best option for me but to be fair I was still unsure whether I would be capable of setting everything up.

My WordPress Lightbulb Moment!

Now call it fate or what ever you want. I was fortunate to connect with a guy who had had a lot of success through blogging. Especially within the affiliate marketing world. As I have said I was involved with affiliate marketing and he really opened my eyes as to what you can do with having a WordPress blog which you owned and controlled.

With his help I created my first WordPress blog under my own name. The blog is located at http://pete-harris.com which now has over 400 blog posts. At first like anything new there were some challenges. I was entering a completely new playing field but it soon became apparent that WordPress is a lot easier than what I first thought. With his help, my determination and willingness to learn, the process of building the blog and adding content became easier as time went by. My initial fears were laid to rest. Since then I have not only created other blogs for my own business using WordPress on my own domains. I have also built blogs for other people.
