If you’re a coach or speaker, and you’re new to your business, then a Wordpress.com website/blog would be a great start to building your Internet Marketing presence. We gave a LOT of information on how-to edit your own Wordpress.com blog/website this past Friday – here’s just a sample of what we did:
1. How to create your own header with an image
2. How to add images, video, or HTML to your blog post or page
3. Discussion on Pingbacks
4. Have a ‘traditional’ Home Page for your Wordpress.com website
5. Comment posting
6. Widgets and protecting your blog from SPAM
To learn more, please listen to our podcast below. This Friday, we’ll be discussing how to promote and market your Wordpress.com blog/website. Be sure to sign-up at the Webinar’s page!

Hi Rachel, as you know I have a Wordpress blog. I’m guest posting on another blog, but it’s not a post I already have, but a new one I wrote just for this other site. How do I exactly do this? Do I just send an attachment or…? It’s a pretty popular blog in my niche,and I want to make sure I know what I’m doing, since she was nice enough to invite me to guest post! Thanks:) Enjoyed last Friday’s class:)
Hi Shreejana,
I would say you should ask them. Usually a guest blogger can sign-up to be an admin and then they would approve you – limiting what you can do in the admin section. If you don’t see anything on the blog Home page, then ask if they have a guest post log-in or if they would like the blog in a Word document format.
Awesome job, by the way, on getting a request to guest blog!
