Setting up a new Blog
Let’s specifically talk about WordPress:
WordPress requires you to sign up on
www.WordPress.com
by providing credentials and then operationalize
your website step by step.
Difference between Website and
Blog:
When we say “Site” as a whole, it means we are
talking about a site which has multiple blogs in it.
Like a website “www.news.com” has multiple
categories like International affairs, National News,
Life Style, Top Trend, Politics and etc. These
categories shall be called blogs.
Difference between Posts and Pages
Posts are basically newsfeeds of your blog.
Page is static and the information on page would never change. Like
details about a company. Mission vision etc.
You need to manage different pages on your website / blog. i.e.
Contact, Archives, What we Do, Why we Do, Mission etc.
WordPress side tools provide users with different gears to change the
theme, layout, display and many other things from default to
customized setup.
