Quick Tutorial on How to Build a Website with Wordpress
In this simple tutorial I'm going to show you how to build a website using Wordpress easily.
1) Web Hosting
First of all you need web hosting for the Wordpress software. Wordpress needs a MySQL database with your hosting plan on which it will work.
Yes, of course you could go with a free web host, but I don't recommend that, as free web hosts usually don't support databases or they are too slow, or they will put ads on your website.
Good cheap web host ideal for Wordpress is BlueHost (it is also my personal choice). BlueHost is a reputable company chosen by many webmasters.

2) Install Wordpress
Download Wordpress from wordpress.org and install it on your web host account. Or check this tutorial on how to Install Wordpress Using Fantastico.
3) Free Wordpress Templates
For free Wordpress themes, you can check my website: wpMix.com. So just download one that you will like and upload it on your Wordpress installation.
That should be all, you can now start writing posts for your new Wordpress website. Best of luck!
