Although most bloggers I meet online are still using blogspot because they are free hosting, I have no regret using blogging software from WordPress.org which I need to pay for self hosting. The main reason why I’m using wordpress software as my blogging platform is to pave my path to professional blogging. Here is what is said about  wordpress software:

WordPress is a state-of-the-art publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability. WordPress is both free and priceless at the same time.

Some benefits that I get from wordpress software are:

• Fast installation of wordpress software to your domain name provided that the web hosting provides you with script installer or Fantastico in the control panel.
• SEO friendly. With the installation of SEO plugins, I can type the keywords for every post.
• Continuous development and upgrade for the software.
• Large selection of blog themes.
• Large selection of plugins to choose from and most of them are free. With plugins, we can customize our blog.
• Trackbacks and pingbacks make easy to track if your articles are picked by other sites.
• You can create categories, sub categories and tags.

There are still other benefits that I haven’t discovered yet and there will be more and more experts to develop blog themes and plugins for wordpress software. It is going to be more excited to see how professional blogging will progress along with the development of wordpress software in the future.

Learn to build a wordpress blog is much easier through video tutorials than you read documentation at WordPress.org. Where to find free wordpress video tutorials? You can find free video tutorials step by step on how to build a wordpress blog from Support section or page at Hostgator Web Hosting. Although the version is slightly old, version 2.7 while WordPress is already version 2.9.1 when I’m writing this post, I find the video tutorials are pretty much clear and cover all the necessary fundamentals. Hostgator Web Hosting also provide a script installer through fantastico which can install the latest wordpress version with just a click.

Learning from free wordpress video tutorials at hostgator enables you to start your first blog. However, if you wish to be a professional blogger and monetize your blog, you have to learn from top professional bloggers. They have techniques and methods to optimize, to market and to monetize your blog. You will start blogging right from the beginning, spend your time for blogging wisely and most importantly, you have the right attitude to be a professional blogger.

The answer of how to build a professional WordPress blog  lies on the choice of WordPress theme. Choosing the right theme for your blog is certainly a consuming task. I have seen bloggers change the blog themes often because they can’t decide what WordPress theme to use.  I am sharing tips on how to build a professional WordPress blog from these elements:

Theme

The key to choose a blog theme is simplicity. If your blog has more words than pictures, choose a white color background theme so the words are readable. If you have a blog media which displays pictures or videos and only have few words, then dark colour theme will provide a clear contrast. You can find thousands blog themes inside your WordPress blog or from official site Free WordPress themes Directory. Do refine your search to look for the right theme by adding certain features or other tags.

Besides free WordPress themes, there are also commercial WordPress themes for your ultimate professional blogging experience.

• Thesis, you can view Thesis Gallery Showcase — See killer customizations from around the Thesis community!
• Flex Squeeze WordPress Theme which offers flexibility to create profitable niche WordPress blog.
• WordPress Super Affiliates comes with 30 stylish themes  built-in  with super affiliates plugins. The package comes with a handbook and videos tutorials on how to set up a WordPress blog.
• WordPress Super Adsense comes with 30 stylish themes  built-in  with super  adsense plugins. The package comes with a handbook and videos tutorials on how to set up a WordPress blog.

Header

Often, we have to change the header within the theme to match with the topic of our blog. If you choose a blog theme from free WordPress themes, choose a theme that provides custom-header feature so you can replace it inside your blog easily by uploading your picture file. Otherwise, you have to use File Transfer Protocol or ftp to upload your own header picture. A blog theme with header picture looks great and appealing for the readers. But if you have no ideas for header picture, choose a blog theme with no header is just fine.

Font

Choose standard font. You can change your font inside the editor. Please don’t choose fancy font for your blog posts as they are hard to read. I have seen a blog with stylish blog theme but I find it hard to read the posts because they are using fancy font.

The right choice of theme, header and font gives you the right foundation to build your professional blog right from the start.
