Thanks for the information, I am interested in adding a blog to my website, which is on wordpress and has a cpannel, but I don’t have any idea where to begin.
Is it costly to have it done for me?

Great info – thank you. I’m thinking about adding a blog to my site and I appreciate the “how-to” information!

FYI, the 3rd sample website says the hosting expired.

I have an early stage company which involves an online community of bloggers and video. Initially I was going to do a membership based model where members pay a fee, but I have decided to take on the advertising model. (I need some advice though on how to base the advertising fees since I haven’t found anything yet on a Google search of YouTube’s model and how they arrived to those figures). My members will have profiles similar to myspace where they can post their own blogs to show off their knowledge and allow web visitors to read or subscribe to each member’s blogs. Someone recommended Word Press MU to me. I’m not sure if hosted is the way to go or to host my blog on my own server. There will be no interaction in the members’ blogs with their readers, but the members will be allowed to post their comments for pure reading enjoyment. This way, a user won’t have to weed through spam.

I will also offer sub-domains where my members can have user feedback on their blogs. Any advice?

Umm this sounds interesting. My website deals with book reviews, and making my site into a blog would make my life alot easier. I update it daily, if it was a blog everytime I added a review the categories and such would update themselves. I designed my site to make it look like a blog so maybe setting up a blog would be a good idea for me.

Hey Douglas, thanks for dropping by. Building a blog into a site whose design I wasn’t involved does require a different level of thought. It’s sometimes difficult to get my head into someone elses code and style.

Sometimes I look at it and think “I would have done this.. or that” – and I’m tempted to change it because I know there are ways to do it better – - make it jump higher and run faster

Other times I look at the code or style and think “Hey – now that’s cool!” and take a few notes

The job I’m contracted to do is to take the original design.. AS IS .. and build a blog into it. Good, bad or ugly – I like doing those projects and the clients are usually very happy that they don’t have to contract out for an entire website re-do just to have a blog on their site – - they’re happy to find out that, the majority of the time, their current design will work well in blog format.

Sounds like an interesting challenge. I’m currently building a site and blog for myself and I’m finding it takes a little thought and planning to keep the styles the same. Matching a new blog to an existing site that you didn’t build would take that idea to a whole different level.
