WordPress is the most loved blogging CMS around the world, which makes it one of the doubtful CMS for newbie bloggers.

In this post I will help you understand some challenges which bloggers face with wordpress, and how you can follow through them.

Blog Type
Blogging on wordpress can be started in two ways. One is by creating a subdomain on wordpress.com and using it as regular blog and other is hosting wordpress on a separate domain.

They both will function the same, i.e. as a blog but will vary in terms of benefits out of them.

Wordpress hosted on a separate hosting will be hosted on a dedicated domain, which is easy to remember and can be tweaked to a further extent.

Wordpress maintenance

Once the website is created, maintenance is the issue. Many forget to add this step into their main blogging flow.

A blog without maintenance becomes a garbage bin in few years, which gets full with of spam comments, slow database and very slow website.

As some pro wordpress maintenance tips suggests, you have to keep the website and plugins updated, clean database on regular basis, clean spam comments and audit website thrice or more in an year.

After creating your wordpress blog, do install such plugins to ensure security of your blog.

This is how you can follow through your blogging career successfully on a wordpress website.
