Wordpress Blog Installation
I am big believer in taking control of my business. For instance if I am marketing affiliate programs I always use redirect URLs when promoting the affiliate products. That way if the affiliate program ever goes out of business I can redirect the URLs to another product at my end.
This concept is no different when it comes to marketing with Blogs.
It has been brought to my attention lately that many Internet Marketers are finding their blogs set up using Google's Blogger mysteriously unavailable. Their accounts have been DISABLED.
So don't give Google or any other company that sort of power over your business. Set up your own blog at YOUR server.
In the video below I am going to show you exactly how to do it. STEP BY STEP.
Blogging will undoubtedly bring traffic to your Plug In Profits business.
Looking outside the box, you could set up a blog per day in many different niche markets. That's what I'm doing to create Google Adsense income from the advertising.
In a lesson coming soon I am going to show you how to put these blogs totally on auto-pilot.
Enough for now lets get on with the video lesson.
As pointed out in my video tutorial, there are some things you must have before setting up a Wordpress blog at your hosting account.
- A hosting account - You can get one here if you don't already have one.
- A Domain Name - If you don't already have a domain name or would like to register more you can get them here.
- FTP Software - To download free ftp software try these below:
Smart FTP
Ace FTP
If any of you PIPSTERS know of a better Free FTP program please let me know.
- Winzip - To download winzip if you don't already have it click below:
WinZip
I have created the Wordpress Blog Installation video in two formats. One that you can watch directly online and one that you can dowload to your desktop to view at your leisure. You may need to watch the video a few times if this is all new to you.
The video download is 38.3MB, which may take a while to download if you have a slow internet connection.
Right click on the link below and choose "Save Target As" to download to your own computer:

I may remove this from my server soon because of the space it takes up. So best to download it while you can.

I realised while creating the video that I had already created a database on my Plug in Profits Training so I wasn't able to show this process. This may add some confusion on the video. SOOOOO.......below is a screen capture of creating a database at your Host4profit Server.

I hope you find this video tutorial useful. Feel free to pass it on to anyone who may get use from it.
Look out for my next tutorial where I will show you EXACTLY how to put your blog on autopilot. Make sure to have your Wordpress blog set up by then.
