What is blog?
Blog is web site that similar to diary, with a lot of news updates and lot of links to other blogs and websites. Why is blog good? First of all blog with constant text adding is very good for search engines (SEO), which they adore. Also, blog have PING option, which tell search engines that new text is added and it's time for spiders to visit site
How to open blog?
If you want to have blog, you can use some of free services on internet (blogger, thumblogger...) or you can make your own. In this text we will talk about making your own blog!
First of all you must have domain and hosting which supports PHP and MySql.
Next step is downloading script wordpress which we'll use as a blog. Working with wordpress is easy and it have many features, themes and plugins. You can download wordpress from their official site
http://wordpress.org/.
Direct link to download is
http://wordpress.org/latest.zip
After download you need to unzip it to your HDD.
Next step is installing script on your host. Before uploading you find and edit file wp-config-sample.php in one of text editors (notepad, wordpad...) i change field associated to mysql. It looks like this:
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress'); // Instead of wordpress write your database name
define('DB_USER', 'username'); // Instead of username write your database username
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password'); // same for password
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); // 99% it will stay localhost, but look at your hosting provider is DB different.
After editing data save this file as wp-config.php. Now upload all content of wordpress folder. After uploading open your favourite browser and type
http://your-site/wp-admin/install.php . This will install your blog.. Wordpress will show you username and password of your new admin panel which you can change later on. Anyway save that data, so you won't get problems later. Script will take you to the login page.

If you want to change your blog look, download themes from those sites

Unzip the theme on HDD and upload it to server. Folder on server must be /wp-content/themes. After uploading in admin panel choose presentation, and then theme you uploaded. Doing this will change your blog appearance. If you want to change your blog appearance even more click on theme editor and you change colours, fonts and even pictures and header.
After writing every post wordpress will automaticaly ping search engines and "tell" them that you have new content on blog. Beware, if you edit your posts too much you can get banned, because wordpress pings every time when post is edited. You can install plugin which disable ping option when editing post. You can find it on next site
