This was so incredibly helpful to someone who has been semi blogging for about 4 years now. I'm a writer and I want to put real value to my writing and this has definitely put me in the right direction. Much thanks!
Thank you so much, I'm retired and have wanted to blog ever since leaving my Computer Help Desk job. I think that you have encouraged me to finally do that. By the way you are adorable! (:
Expressing myself, having fun and serving others are 3 chief drivers for me, as far as why I dove into blogging. Get those basics down cold and you will move into the practical tips that help you succeed while you help others. Thanks for sharing :)
Absolutely right and not just for blogging, I’ve been running my own website for 3 years now and only started to make money from advertising after about 2 years; it’s a big learning curve ...however you can’t beat the fun, if you need a low cost easy start-up with a free domain name pop over to our website.
Your voice sounds serious but funny at the same time. Anyone would listen to your voice without getting bored for a long time. + thanks for the informative video
Thanks for the great tutorial! I've been writing for months and have been toying with the idea of sharing it with 'the people' through a blog. It no longer seems like an insurmountable feat.
You are amazing. Thanks for coming to Seattle for Wordtasting, I appreciate you guys. And thanks for giving me the best gift, the gift of time. You've inspired me to seek out and join a small meet up group of minimalist/simple living like minded people - I'm really excited for that. Thanks Josh & Ryan for the quality content of every video.

When creating your account on Bluehost the total sum of money is shown in the packaging information, is that entire sum paid upfront or taken out of my bank account per month?
Such an amazing and informative video! I have been thinking of starting a blog for a while now but found it a bit overwhelming. This has really clarified all the questions I have had. Definitely going to set it all up this weekend. Thank you The Minimalists :)
I appreciate you so much. Watching this was very informative. And it really helped with some of the apprehension I had with WORDPRESS. I'm excited to see you all posted a new video for this year. I'll watch that now.
Saw your doc on Netflix a couple weeks ago. I’m happy to see your concept is taking off. Never expected to run into you while searching blogging tips haha!
I think I just learned the reason today. Wordpress itself is a tool... Wordpress.com is a company. So, you could use Wordpress the company to host your website... but you could use Wordpress the tool and host at any hosting company such as bluehost, Godaddy and or stay at Wordpress... I hope I explained that well enough to be understood. I am super new to this too... I haven't even started my site, but I have ideas floating.
Thank you Joshua. It was very helpful and very informative. I value your top tips... Brilliant help! Keep up the good work Mr. Millburn :-) You're doing really well.
Hello Joshua, unfortunately, I have faced a problem with following your guide. It is about the number of the options that you have to choose from, when you come to buy your child theme, on BYLT. At first I bought the Genesis theme and I was expected to buy my child theme for 18$, but now I see that on the BYLT there are just three Theme which each one costs 125 $.
OMID OMRANI I’ve had the same experience, not happy as I paid $60 for genesis and $60 for blue host was over charged with blue host and waiting on a refund and now I’ve spent $150 and now it’s asking for another $125 NO!
Any updates? it looks like on the newer version (blog and youtube video) he doesn't mention Genesis and just discusses themes through bylt. any updates would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
so i did as he said and bought genesis and a child theme but when i go on word press i can either choose genesis or my child theme? i thought they worked together no?
From my personal knowledge of childthemes (which isn't much), all you need to do is select the child theme. It has a callback to the original framework so it does the connecting job for you.
Hello. I do have question. (I get confused very easily) I am currently using a different website host, but if I decide to stay with them, could I come back to your video here and use what you show here, for my site? Does my question make any sense? Thank you!
Can you just do a 1 page website? I got a domain and Wordpress Divi theme but have made a mess of it and am completely stuck so trying to get back on track and at least get a blog on there. Thanks for any advice.
I've started my blog at WordPress but haven't been active for a long time..I opened it just now, & surprised it's still there..but still don't know.how to re-start..
Do I need a host? I already have my domain and started a wordpress site but I was completely unaware of getting a source for hosting outside of wordpress.com? what are the benefits? can i still get a host even if though im already starting to design my blog on wordpress?
I've been in tears all day trying to start a blog... why do you make this look so easy, $500 later, I'm having a nervous brakedown.... bluehost, Wordpress, mojo marketplace , wtf... 😫😫😭😭
David Bowie and Christopher Walken! :)
emiliatoja he is their love child
Instantly reminded me of William Fichtner.
emiliatoja definitely. But more walken.

Simply done, without talking down to me. Thank you.
Why not use Wordpress and Wordpress.com the company to host?? The overwhelming amount of options is making me nervous.
cause if you use wordpress.com they have the authority to do anything with your blog if you accidentally violate their terms
Saw your doc on Netflix a couple weeks ago. I’m happy to see your concept is taking off. Never expected to run into you while searching blogging tips haha!
Great resource. Succinct delivery. Just awesome. Thank you for creating and posting this "how to" video.
Thank you for sharing. It's professional, clear and easy to follow.
I'm really new to the blogging gig. But I'd love to sit down and pick your brain and learn some stuff. +TheMinimalists
I am halfway through this but BYLT only has 3 themes in it for $125. Where should I go to find child themes??
Hey Josh! I love your blog. That might not have anything to do with the video itself but it didn't have any comments so I thought I'd change that.
The Minimalists you give great advice! I appreciate it a lot!
Lesson learned: add value to people’s lives.👍🏻
Great Video! Thanks for sharing. Great information and navigation to the sources. Much appreciated!
Joshua, you are very helpful in your explanations. Thank you for posting this youtube.
Whoa I'd love to have 52 readers the first month of any blog!
"I can hardly spell HTML"
That's golden😂👌
By the way, love the video!!
Thanks for sharing this step by step blogging start-up. Great content here.
This was really helpful, thank you :) I can't wait to begin work on my first blog!
Very concise, top end tutorial ever!
Thank you! It was very helpful! :-)
i dont get why would you need bluehost if you are using wordpress?
I think I just learned the reason today. Wordpress itself is a tool... Wordpress.com is a company. So, you could use Wordpress the company to host your website... but you could use Wordpress the tool and host at any hosting company such as bluehost, Godaddy and or stay at Wordpress... I hope I explained that well enough to be understood. I am super new to this too... I haven't even started my site, but I have ideas floating.
It is not up to date anymore. The pages have changed... on BYLT there are only three themes for 125 each
Thank you Joshua. It was very helpful and very informative. I value your top tips... Brilliant help! Keep up the good work Mr. Millburn :-) You're doing really well.
thank you! It was very easy to understand. hope you'll do more videos
Thank you so much for this! It is really helpful and genuine.

Excellent video! Best I've watched...thnx!
i dont understand what "hosting" means in this context, can someone explain to me why I should pay 60$ for something that does what?

Nice video & advice but please do some post-production on the audio. Low quality & quiet.
When I click on the first login from the credentials page, the login to my domain is just a blank white screen. How should I fix this?
Thanks a lot !! It's really informative
this video really helped me out thank you so much

Do I have to pay for a theme? Are there any free themes ? Do I have to take a theme? Isn't there a default look?
thank you so much I found this very valuble
Looking at their site, I have no idea how to find the articles he's mentioned.. I guess we're supposed to scroll down for 20 minutes lol.. 😒
Question what equipment do you recommend for beginners such as computer etc
If I get a free domain from blue host, how do I carry that over to Wordpress, or would I need to buy a domain from using Wordpress option?
Thank you for you input Chevy! I appreciate it!
thank u Soo much you were so helpful😁
thanks a lot, very helpful
when you pay for bluehost do you pay 2.95 a month or do you pay in full that day?
How much on average do you usually earn as in money on your first month blogging?
Hi what app are u using for editing?
Great vid! thanks man.
I know it is hard to tell...but can someone please tell me the computer brand he is using?
Is there a way to pay for bluehost monthly instead of yearly ?
