We get weekly emails asking us about starting a blog. Here is our simple, step-by-step process for learning how to become a blogger. https://www.theminimalists.com/blog

Trying to figure out how to start a blog? Well, starting a blog is easier than you think. After much experimenting, we discovered the best way to set up our blog, TheMinimalists.com, which now has reached more than 20 million people and has been featured in dozens of major media publications (New York Times, TIME magazine, TODAY show, and many others). These are the exact steps we took when we created our blog. If you follow this sequence, you will set up a beautiful blog in less than an hour.

7-STEP SUMMARY:

STEP 1. TIME: Set aside one hour to create your blog.

STEP 2. SELECT YOUR DOMAIN NAME & HOSTING: Sign up for Bluehost hosting and get a free domain and 50% off your first year by using this link: https://www.theminimalists.com/bluehost

DISCLOSURE: TheMinimalists.com is a Bluehost affiliate partner, which means that in addition to using their services, we also receive a commission for referring new customers. To be fair, though, we would still use them even if we weren’t an affiliate—we’ve used them for a long time. Ergo, we don’t recommend Bluehost just because we’re an affiliate (every hosting company offers a similar affiliate program); we recommend Bluehost because they are the best, most reliable option.

STEP 3. INSTALL YOUR WORDPRESS BLOG: While there are free blogging platforms out there like Blogspot and Tumblr, nearly every serious blogger uses a self-hosted WordPress site because of its creative freedom and flexibility. Don’t let the word “install” intimidate you. Bluehost walks you through every single step. Besides, in this context, “install” just means “make a few clicks.” So, really, you’re just a few clicks away from WordPress installation. Screenshots: https://www.theminimalists.com/blog

STEP 4. DESIGN YOUR BLOG WITH A THEME: A theme allows you to control the specific look and feel of your blog without the need for coding expertise or design knowledge. In other words, a good theme helps you to design your blog exactly how you want it to look. If you’re not a coder (we certainly aren’t), then a theme makes the design work a million times easier. We use BYLT for our theme (https://bylt.co).

STEP 5. INSTALL YOUR THEME: Remember how easy it was in install WordPress? Well, installing your theme is even easier. Details at https://www.theminimalists.com/blog

STEP 6. INSTALL WORDPRESS PLUGINS: Plugins are third-party appendages that add additional functionality to your blog. It’s best to keep your number of plugins to a minimum and install only the best plugins. (Too many plugins, as well as unreliable plugins, can slow down your site.) We use only a few plugins at The Minimalists. Details at https://www.theminimalists.com/blog

STEP 7. TINKER UNTIL YOU’RE HAPPY. You’re done! You've learned how to start a blog. Congrats! And this is actually where the fun begins. Now that you have your own blog, you get to make it yours; you get to turn your vision into a reality. So tinker away. Plenty of suggestions and tips at https://www.theminimalists.com/blog
