    meaning that, on your cpanel, if you have fantastico features there, you can do it in single click. I thought you are wordpress expert ;)

    You can find pretty cool free wordpress templates.....save them as a zip and upload them from your wordpress control panel....After activating the template, it is all downhill...

    There are two way. one is wordpress provides you free setup. another way is if, you need custom blog then hire web designer or php web developer to boost business.

    Get a domain, get hosting, edit the nameservers to point to your host. After that you should just see index.html on your front page. Go to cpanel, click fantastico and then press the wordpress tab. You then have to set the details for your blog and in 10 seconds you'll be done, it's that easy!

    go to YouTube and search "Wordpress Tutorials" and you'll get a ton of good training videos. While it's easy once you've done it, it's hard to explain in a forum post.

    If you are unsure than focus on the setup. You will likely need to install a wordpress site from there and then add your template.

    Once you have your blog installed, search for free wordpress themes and you will get a huge selection. Pick one that has an appearance you like and looks simple. Installation of the themes is simple. Then it's best to just start by creating some simple posts and pages and learn as you go along. It's easy to get overwhelmed if you try too much at the beginning

    You want to use wordpress as blog or as a CMS ??
    If you want to create blog just signup at wordpress.com but if you want to create site using wordpress as a CMS, it will need a little bit more time and knowledge. If you want the last one, there are a lot of tutorial out there, just googling buddy. Or maybe you can contact me, I'm not good but I like sharing. ;)

    If you're looking for CMS, try Joomla instead of Wordpress. Why? Because if you can't code, you'll not be able to use all the wordpress power. It has been designed for blogging. But if you've some knowledge of php, javascript, html and css, wordpress has the brilliant documentation called codex. Check it out ;).
