More than 76 million blogs worldwide run on WordPress, and 17 new posts are published on WordPress sites every second. Though it powers all kinds of business and personal websites, the world’s most popular site builder was made with blogging in mind. Free for anyone to use, WordPress has all the essential tools you need to set up and manage a self-hosted WordPress blog—no design or development experience needed for starting a blog on this powerful blogging platform.

How to Start a Blog – Back in 2003, developers Mike Little and Mike Mullenweg created WordPress—a self-contained set of PHP coded files that anyone could download and use to publish content online. Their goal was to “democratize” publishing blog posts, and content in general, on the web with a content management system with features for both non-tech users and those with experience in web development and design.
Today, WordPress has far exceeded that original goal. A third of the world’s websites use WordPress for purposes that range from small personal blogs to complex business sites for companies like the Disney Corporation, the New York Post, and Time Inc.
