Beginner’s Guide to Starting a WordPress Blog

Why WordPress?

Creating and maintaining a website is a combination of ever-evolving science and art. As a Content Management System and blogging tool, WordPress is great and flexible for website creation. Website content can stay fresh, accurate and relevant through application of its user-friendly Visual Editor.

WordPress puts the most important information at the top of the page, which is a very helpful feature for search engine optimization in today’s competitive international trade activity. To put it simply, the best looking, most elegant and smartly designed blog can be created by WordPress.

WordPress is no longer merely a blogging platform, it has evolved to power more than 23.3% of the top 10 million websites as of January 2015. Moreover, it is totally FREE, coupled with thousands of free plugins and themes, and is supported by an extensive WordPress Support community where help is readily available.

Though there are other, more powerful platforms available, their demand for a very steep learning curve makes it an unpleasant and unfavorable choice for beginners. In this article, we have compiled all the major aspects to building a WordPress blog from scratch – starting from installation, right through to blog promotion.

Chapter 1: Choosing the Right WordPress Web Host

Now that you have the basic outline of WordPress and its advantages, the first step will be choosing a domain name and hosting service. So, how do you find the best WordPress hosting for your website? Take a glance below at some vital features to look out for in a WordPress hosting service.

The ideal WordPress Hosting should:

• be WordPress-optimized with super fast performance;
• have CloudLinux that offers “isolation” features (e.g., your account on the server is isolated from other accounts on the server, preventing any single site from over-utilizing the server);
• offer full access to your WordPress account, including access to the WordPress source code and the WordPress database; and,
• provide 24/7 support by WordPress experts to troubleshoot and solve any WordPress-related issues.

Chapter 3: Beautify Your WordPress Blog – WordPress Themes

What is a Theme and why do we need it?

Themes allow users to adjust the look and functionality of a WordPress website, and can be installed without altering the website’s content or health.

Your choice of WordPress theme determines important aspects of your website. Choosing the right theme can be tricky for newcomers, since most people will be attracted by “looks” alone. A good theme, however, is one that not only looks good, but is also lean and lightweight, easy to customize, flexible, actively developed, well supported, and has good reviews, feedback and documentation.

How to install a WordPress Theme

Simply login to your WordPress dashboard, search for your desired theme and install it. For detailed steps on how to install a theme for your blog, you can refer our Knowledgebase article: how to install a WordPress theme.

Chapter 7: Make Your WordPress Blog SEO-Friendly

Generally, for a WordPress blog post, URLs would typically look something like http://www.myawesomeblog.com/?p=123, which is not SEO-friendly. Neither people nor the search engine can determine what your post is about through such vague URLs. The keywords used in your post title, body of your post, categories and URL are signals to search engines and help them to rank your blog posts. Therefore, it requires a change in your permalinks to include your post titles. Here below are some other permalink SEO tips to consider:

• Use simple permalinks (i.e. domain.com/archive/postname).
• Favor dashes rather than underscores in links.
• Remove stop words from permalinks (“is” or “are”).
• Never change permalinks after publishing. If you do so for some reason, set up a 301 redirection from the old URL to the new URL using .htaccess.
• Use your keyword in your permalink.
• For more information, you can refer our article: How to make your WordPress blog SEO-friendly.

Chapter 8: Secure Your WordPress Blog

When it comes to security, it can become a difficult task to choose from the multitude of solutions available. To help simplify this selection process, we have listed some common and effective solutions below.

Securing your blog against Hacking

1. Keep your WordPress blog, themes and Plugins up to date. An outdated version makes for an easy hacking target and your website could be susceptible to hacking bots.
2. Keep the password to its maximum strength. If you have multiple websites, make sure you use a different password for each one.
3. Avoid using the “admin” name as a WordPress Admin, which is easily assumed.

Scanning of the WordPress Website

There are a large number of plugins that enable the scanning of WordPress websites for malware, trojans, backdoors, worms, viruses and spywares. These plugins also scan for JavaScript code obfuscation, exploits, malicious iframes, malicious code injection, malicious code obfuscation, auto-generated malicious content, redirects and hidden eval code.

Chapter 10: Upgrade WordPress Core and Plugins

WordPress is capable of updating itself to new minor releases and security updates without any user input. For major WordPress updates, there are mainly two methods:

One-click update:

When a WordPress update is available, you will receive an update message on the WordPress dashboard. You can launch the update by clicking the link in the new version banner. At the “Update WordPress” page, simply click the button “Update Now” to launch the upgrade process – no further action is required. Once WordPress upgrade is finished, your WordPress website will be up-to-date.

Manual update:

If the one-click upgrade doesn’t work for you, try the manual update. Refer to the guides below to update WordPress core manually.

How To Update WordPress Manually | wpsites.net

A word of caution: Only updating WordPress core won’t make your WordPress website fully secure. Updating your plugin installations is equally as important as updating WordPress core. Vulnerability in one of these plugins can result in your website being hacked. There are three methods to update WordPress plugins; here below is one method, namely:

One click plugin update:

Like WordPress core, WordPress plugins can also be upgraded through the one-click method on the WordPress dashboard. Simply login to WordPress dashboard and go to the “Updates” section. If there are plugins to be updated, they will appear here. To update your plugins, select them and click on the “Update Plugins” button.

Chapter 11: WordPress Add-Ons

CDN: A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a cluster of geographically distributed servers used to quickly deliver static content such as images, scripts, CSS and libraries to visitors from the nearest server. In simpler terms, when visitors browse any website, CDN chooses the nearest server to deliver static content used in the website. CDN allows the visitors faster page loads and enhanced user experience. This leads to huge performance improvements for WordPress blogs that have visitors from all across the world. A detailed guide can be found here for your reference.

SSL: Every day, we share our personal information with different websites, whether it’s making a purchase or simply logging in. Hence, data security plays a major role. That’s where SSL comes in. If you are running an eCommerce website on WordPress, SSL is must. Https is an encryption method that secures the connection between users’ browser and your server, which makes it harder for hackers to eavesdrop on the connection.

Once SSL is set up, WordPress has the https facility on your full website, as well as on exclusive pages. For this, we need to install a plugin called WordPress HTTPS. Once this plugin is installed, clicking https in the Admin area of WordPress will give the following screen:

After saving the above-mentioned settings, if any, we recommend browsing specific pages by https.

Chapter 12: WordPress Styling Tips

To stand out above the rest of the WordPress blogs, you will need to tweak your blog’s settings. By tweaking, we mean you need to put effort into PHP softcode, Themes and Text Style. There are many tricks available to make your WordPress blog unique and impressive. Here below are a few handy, clever and fun practices to follow:

• Text Beautify: This plugin looks out for bad casing, grammatical mistakes, etc.
• Quotes: It pulls the most memorable part of article. In Visual Editor of WordPress, there is the ‘b-quote’ facility to use Quotes.
• Color, alignment and other styles: One can control color, thickness [size], width, and position using <div> align for Horizontal line by following <div> command.<div align="center">
<hr color="#dddddd" size="1" width="60%" /></div>
• Images: The WordPress Media Uploader tool is useful to upload images. Use “Add Media” to add images, “Attachment Details” to insert details of the image and “Attachment Display Setting” to control how the media will be displayed when viewed on the website.
• Categories and Tags: By default, WordPress posts are not placed in category. Categories can, however, be added/changed at Post > Categories. Tags may also be added to specific posts.
• Formatting Options: WordPress Visual Editor has a selection of text formatting facilities; for example, Bold, Italics, Strikethrough, Unordered List, Ordered List, Link, Unlink, Outdent, Indent, Select text color, etc.
• Themes: On the WordPress dashboard, go to Appearance > Themes. By changing themes, one can easily change the appearance of a website without ever changing the content of your backend structure.
