 Do you offer any blog software?
Solution We currently offer Wordpress ( http://www.wordpress.org ) as a user installable package. If you want to install this, first login via FTP and create the directory you wish the blog to reside in. Next login to your cpanel (http://cpanel.DOMAIN.COM entering your website name in place of DOMAIN.COM) with your master email address and create a mySQL database. Once the database is created, the option to 'Install Wordpress' will appear. Just follow the instructions to install it and go to the URL provided after to complete the installation and start customizing your website.

If you are replacing your existing website with Wordpress, you should first delete all the existing files on your website so there is no file conflicts when installing Wordpress. If you are installing Wordpress on a brand new account, you will need to delete the index.html on your account first prior to installing Wordpress in order to see your Wordpress website. This can be done with a FTP client. See this link on how to configure the free FTP program 'Filezilla': http://accounts.your-site.com/support/index.php?_m=troubleshooter&_a=steps&troubleshootercatid=15&parentid=0

Filezilla can be downloaded at http://filezilla-project.org/download.php
