I want to add a blog on my website. How do I create it? Can you give me any websites I can look up to get the right information. I am not very tech literate.

Also, how about if you purchase other domains, are there any hosting sites at no charge?

Thanks.

www.wordpress.com or www.blogger.com will get you started and they are both free. If you purchase a domain name, you can have it pointed to your blog and it shouldn't cost you more than the yearly renewal fee for the domain ($10-$20/year or so).

You do not want hosting sites at no charge - they will be slow, limited, and full of ads.

The hosting provider that I PM'd to you offers Wordpress blog easy installs - it's easy to have it added right to your blog from the control panel. I've used him for my hosting needs for YEARS. He's excellent w/ customer service.

Ok, I was reading more into wordpress. Wordpress.com is a free blog, seems to be more simple versus wordpress.org which needs a host & since I want it under my website this is the one I need right (.org)? I'm sorry for sounding like such a novice...

Also, Perky, I asked about a host because I want to start a new site just on rentals, which it's basically what is happening in my area. Did you set your websites up on your own & use the company just for hosting? I just want something simple

I have to jump on the band wagon if I want results.

I created my own website, but the guy I recommended to you has templates you can use, too. He can show you how to get the wordpress.org on your own site easy - you just had to click a few buttons. I set one up on my site but didn't mess with it much cause I ran out of time - been busy with clients the past three weeks, and haven't had much time to mess with my site. I want my blog on my own site, but right now I'm content with the wordpress.com blog.

Are you on social networks like facebook? I have it set up but never bother with it. My friends always try to get me into it but I just dont.
