Steps to creating wordpress blogs for free
1.Get free Web hosting with php and mysql
This should not be hard at all considering the fact that there are thousands of free web hosts available on the internet today.Take note to choose a web host that you trust not one that will keep breaking down every minute.You dont want to boast to your friends about your new website only to find out that the server is down.The main thing that you should look in your webhost is the wordpress installer so that you dont do this manually.2.Get a free domain or subdomain
Let me make something clear,getting a free domain such as dot tk or dot cu.cc is not such a good idea.This is because such domains rarely appear on major searchengines.I therefore recommend that that you use the sub domains offered by your free web host.
3.Install wordpress
If you followed step 1 above then this should not be a problem.All you have to do is to login into your control panel and select the auto installer.If your web host doesnt offer this then download wordpress and install it into your web host.Visit the configuration page and it will take you through the process of installing it.We have a full article on how to install wordpress.4.Start creating your free wordpress blog
