There is a lot of different Blogging software available these days, but the one I like the most is by Wordpress
Its very easy to install, has a huge variety of available plugins and has a very helpful Forum if you need assistance.
Here’s the quick 5 minute version of the installation instructions… a more detailed set of instructions can be found at the Wordpress website, or simply watch our video tutorial by www.helptelly.com
5 Minute Installation
- Download and unzip the WordPress package, if you haven’t already.
- Create a database for WordPress on your web server, as well as a MySQL user who has all privileges for accessing and modifying it.
- Rename the wp-config-sample.php file to wp-config.php.
- Open wp-config.php in your favorite text editor and fill in your database details.
- Place the WordPress files in the desired location on your web server:
- If you want to integrate WordPress into the root of your domain (e.g.
http://example.com/), move or upload all contents of the unzipped
WordPress directory (but excluding the directory itself) into the root directory of your web server.
- If you want to have your WordPress installation in its own subdirectory on
your web site (e.g. http://example.com/blog/), rename the directory wordpress to the name you’d like the subdirectory to have and move or upload it to your web server. For example if you want the WordPress installation
in a subdirectory called "blog", you should rename the directory called "wordpress" to "blog" and upload it to the root directory of your web server.
- If you want to integrate WordPress into the root of your domain (e.g.
- Run the WordPress installation script by accessing wp-admin/install.php in your favorite web browser.
That’s it! WordPress should now be installed.
