Title: Easiest setup of a blog?
Post by: reggae on November 24, 2008, 11:38:30 AM: I'm looking for the easiest and most simple blog software to set up under a single domain.
Would that be Wordpress or is there something simpler?
As is im hosting 10 - 20 domains, but only need a blog for one of them
Forgive me i'm new and hope this makes sense to somebody. :P
regards
Erik

Wordpress. It is the De facto Blog standard and very easy to use.

I'd suggest heading over to here: http://wordpress.org/ and having a look around. Wordpress has grown considerably in functionality and popularity over the past few years.

You can even signup for a free wordpress account here http://wordpress.com/ and try it out.
