Building a Blog Site with WordPress

Blogging is something you might have heard about over the last few years. What began as personal journals online has expanded to change the way journalism, politics, and businesses are communicating. This project covers what a blog is and how to use open source software called WordPress to build your own blog. WordPress runs on a website that allows you to create blogs hosted by WordPress. Also, to run and manage your own blog, you can download the WordPress software and install it on your own web host.

What Is a Blog?

A blog is simply a web journal or log. The word blog is just a shortened form of web log. People have been writing logs and diaries for as long as there has been writing. Blogging is an electronic extension of these written words. To put it simply, a blog is a list of dated entries that have the latest entry at the top of the web page.
The subject matter can be anything - and I do mean anything. There are blogs about food, knitting, and politics, or anything that gives you the urge to write. I write a blog, my wife writes a blog, and her mother writes three blogs (I always knew my mother-law had a lot of things to say and now so does everyone else). You can write about anything. The best advice is to write about something you love. You don’t even have to be an expert. Lots of people blog about how they learn more about the things they love.
