Interested in starting a Wordpress blog? If you are currently running a Blogger blog, or just simply writing for other websites, it is probably about time you thought about running your own WordPress Blog. If you haven't already, that's probably because you feel a little overwhelmed about choosing web hosting and installing wordpress. Well, I'm going to make it easy for you!

You may not know, that some hosting companies offer an automatic install of Wordpress, and many other blog applications for that matter.Wordpress web hosting is actually very easy, and if you have your own hosting and domain, you website is considered much better for Google and other search engines.

To get started, you have to purchase a hosting account and domain. There are many hosting companies out there, but only some of them offer the easy of a simple, one click installation of Wordpress and you're on your way! The best part about having your own Wordpress web hosting is that you own that web space, so, in business terms, you've accumulated an asset that God willing brings you to owning a valuable asset!

To get started, go to GoDaddy and get a small package, don't forget to get a domain name also! They are a very reputable company, very popular company, I use them personally for almost all my websites and they also happen to have the cheapest prices! I personally like to just purchase the whole year, so that I don't pay extra purchasing 6 months at a time. Also, don't forget these coupon codes when you place your order, I found them online! If you're purchasing for the year, this coupon code is probably your best option:

Go to GoDaddy

$20 off a $75+ order

Coupon Code: CATALOG1

or try this one if you're only getting it for 6 months:

20% off shared hosting

Ok, now on to the easy stuff. Again, don't forget to add on your domain name... Alright, are you ready for this? It's EASY!

Once you get your confirmation e-mail log into your account.

Click >> My Account

Click >> Hosting Account List

Click >> Your domain name/description from the list. If this is your first site, it will be the only one there.

Click >> Open (under the control panel title)

Go to the Content Tab at the top of the new window that came up

Choose "Metropolis" from the drop down menu

Now, you're in the area that lists all the different things you can download on to your website, FOR FREE with just one click. Digressing here, let me just say, it's worth your time to play around here because they have a ton of stuff, like photo galleries, forums, portals, other blog apps and much more.

Back to the instructions...

Click "Wordpress" when you find it.

Click "Install Now"

You're off to your brand new Wordpress Blog, with no messy installations or anything! That's it! Good luck with your new wordpress web hosting asset, domain name and making a name for yourself as a true blue blogger!
