How Do I Learn To Create New Pages Or Blog Posts ?
When you log-in into your website you are taken to what is called the Dashboard. Look for the section called pages and click on that. In the pages section you can edit existing pages or click on a link to create new pages. Give the page a title and write your information in the content area. After you are finished writing your new page scroll down about half way and you will see a section called “Discussion” with a place to check for allowing pings and comments. I would suggest not selecting either of them for your pages as it can create a maintenance issue of monitoring the comments which can result in spam or comments that are not relevant to your market. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and you will see a section called “All in One SEO Pack”. This is where you want to write a title, description and keywords that describe your new page. There is a support link in the section area to give you more information about optimizing this information for the good search engine ranking.
How Do I Change The Title Of My Website?
In the Dashboard click on the settings link. This will take you to page called general settings. There you can change the title and the tag line which appears just below the title!
How To I Add Links?
Go into the Dashboard, click on links and follow the instructions.
