There are many websites who use blogs on their website, I thought someone would be interested in knowing how to get a blog installed for their personal or business website. I would recommend wordpress blog – it’s the best blog I have ever used. And the installation procedure is very simple, just go through the following steps:

First of all make sure that your web hosting company supports PHP 4.2 or greater, MySQL 4.0 or greater and the mod_rewrite apache module.

You can download a zip or tar.gz of wordpress from http://wordpress.org/download/ then unzip the files. Now, you can create database from your web hosts control panel when this is done you will find a file named wp-config-sample.php which is to be renamed as wp-config.php, edit it and add your database details over there. And, now upload the files to your web space provided by your web hosting company.

Now, you are ready just type in the browser http://yourdomain.com/blog-directory/wp-admin/install.php fill in the Site name and email address and you’re done. It will provide you admin login and password. Where yourdomai.com means your website name.

Happy blogging!
