    You can really tell which comments are from adults and which ones are from kids. This was a great tutorial. One of the best I’ve watched on any subject.

    Thank you Chris, a million times! I could almost cry from relief. I was totally lost on WordPress but now am found. Blind, but now I see. I finally believe that I can get my blog started.

    Boring. Self indulgent. If you want to make an instructional video cut out all the bloated ‘me’ crap and get straight to it.

    This was incredibly boring! I almost fell asleep while watching this, probably cause your voice is Mono, other than that it was a great video for people who don’t know how to set up a wordpress blog. But I thought this video was going to be on how to blog, like writing and stuff like that.

    Hey Chris this video has been very helpful.
    But now I’m stuck. You went through wordpress site to edit. I go through bluehost and see that I dont have all the options you have. Most important one is in settings general there is no Blog photo module and I cant seem to find any informaiton on the web. Help what is the difference between going through bluehost and wordpress?

    Chris YOU’RE AWESOME! thanks for your time & knowledge! please don’t change!

    Why you pay $10 for using your domain? If you use godaddy yust install wordpress on your domain and that it. I don’t now, maybe is that new – I just start with wordress.

    Try to blog a short post 4-days/week and save your long epic post for once-a-week.

    Chris, this was great – really helpful, thankyou.
    I am new to business blogging. How often do you suggest I blog and what sort of things do I blog about, as I understand you should not be heavily selling your products??
    Thanks Laura
