My brother, as a web developer and designer, there are three things involved, you either develop one for urself right from scratch or get one from wordpress.org or probably remaing blogless like me lol .

This is the problem with Nigeria. Tomorrow this same blog will not generate revenue to the owner. How can you possibly say you start a blog in 5 minutes. Even some of us that are pros will not say that. The best you can say is installation and that will not take into account the necessary settings to set the ball rolling. Plus you need to do a lot of preliminary study to ascertain the goal of the blog. You are given the impression that blogging is that just easy. This is more like the get-rich quick syndrome posts

Guys there are other opportunities out there besides blogging oo. Good luck to the committed, skilled bloggers though.[/size]

Let say the truth for ones.

To create a blog is not the problem but maintaining it plus research work on it is what you have to consider before creating it.

I have been blogging for a year but.......

From personal experience, I don't know about others.

Blogging is the art that maintains an ongoing chronicle of information through an online internet based medium like websites, while Wordpress is the platform used for blogging.

If this post is true and works, why is everybody not yet famous like Linda?

Same thing as those boys selling books titled "How to be wealthy in 30 minutes"

To be honest with you i know few nigeria that arean authoritative blogger and also famous

it is like comparing Christiana Rolnado and Justin Biebar

linda blog is a model blog and not a tech blog, news blog, seo blog etc

I put off starting a blog for a long time because I thought it would be hard. I thought it would be technical. I thought I'd have to install scripts and tear my hair out getting them to work. At that point, most of what I'd read about blogs and RSS was just so much geek-speak.

Was I ever wrong!

When I finally got the courage to give it a go, I went to blogger.com and signed up for an account. To my amazement, I had a blog set up in about 5 minutes. My first post was uploaded to my site about 10 minutes later.

The only thing even remotely technical I was required to do was enter the FTP settings for the website my blog would be published on. But even that wasn't a requirement. With Blogger, you can set up a blog on their site, , and not even worry about FTP settings.

Since then, I've started 3 Blogger blogs on different sites. Blogger remains one of the most popular blog applications in the world simply because it is so simple to use and set up. If you're a technophobe or don't have the time to learn something completely new, I would urge you to drop by Blogger.com and take a look. You could be blogging - and enjoying the benefits - almost immediately.

Another very simple blogging tool is Wordpress. This blog is my first Wordpress blog, and I'm very impressed with how powerful it is - as well as simple.

Wordpress is installed on your own website, but don't let that stop you. Most hosts that have Cpanel already have Wordpress ready for you to install. Look in your Cpanel for the Fantastico application, click it open, and then choose Wordpress to install. It will automatically install it on your site for you, and you can start blogging right away.

If your host doesn't already include Wordpress in the scripts on your server, you can still pick it up at:

http://wordpress.org/

Then go to the Wordpress Wiki for instructions on how to install it in 5 minutes:

http://wiki.wordpress.org/?pagename=5MinuteInstallation

Wordpress is free, open-source software. It is very simple to install, even for technophobes, and has a lot of online documentation. There are also many sites with free Wordpress add-ons and templates. I'm using a template for this blog that I picked up at Alex King's site:

http://www.alexking.org/index.php?content=software/wordpress/styles.php

The Wordpress Wiki is a wealth of information on all things Wordpress, including installation instructions, help files, a long list of template sites, and all kinds of hacks and extras you can use to modify your blog and make it original.

If you're a Wordpress user, another place to visit is the Wordpress discussion forum:

http://wordpress.org/support/

If you're a new blogger, both Wordpress and Blogger are very user friendly. There isn't a long learning curve. And you won't have to learn any new technical tricks. Why not give one of them a try?
can i do that on my andriod phone?
