{BLOG} – Setting Up Your WordPress Blog on Your Domain – Video

Posted: 19 Sep 2011 06:45 PM PDT

This is the second post in our ten week Multimedia post series on the power of blogging for success selling online. The series is called “Blogging Leads to Online Greatness“, or B.L.O.G. for short!

Greatness may be a bit much, but other “G” words didn’t sound as nice. Goodness? Glory? And hey, I think blogging is great and you really can do wonders for your success online if you stick with a plan for your blog.

I’m a believer in having a WordPress Blog on your own domain. If you look around at the largest and most fun blogs online, you’ll see that the vast majority are on their own domain (such as EverythingEtsy.com) and that most run on WordPress.

So the first step is getting an actual blog up and running, and that’s what this video is all about. I lucked out with just a little intro and closing role, while Tim gets to go through the techy details with you.

You’ll see that it’s not hard and Tim (my husband and cohort) does the whole thing in the video, from selecting a domain name, to having WordPress up and running, in less than 15 minutes!

In the video, Tim mentions including more information here in the post. It’s coming! We’ve run into a few delays today and are barely getting this published in time to meet our posted schedule.
