Last night I attended the OC Wordpress Meetup which was put on by two very talented guys. Those of you who are REVA's may know of them through RealEstateShows.com.

Anyhow, they posted on their blog last night a very straight forward how-to guide that literally walks you through setting up a self-hosted wordpress site. I may be the only VA left out there that hasn't mastered this yet, but hopefully it can be of help to someone.

Setting up a Self-Hosted Wordpress Site on GoDaddy

They also walked us through creating a plug-in and recorded it, so you may be able to find that on their site as well.

April,

Thank you for sharing this link. Knowledge is power.

Just a comment. Go Daddy doesn't have a Cpanel type of hosting. Cpanel is preferred by most webmasters or bloggers. Most hosting provider has Cpanel.

Thanks...I am always a big fan of hints like this.

The tutorial I did for my Girly Girl Geek site on installing Wordpress shows the CPanel installation as well for anyone that might need to go that route.

Thanks so much for sharing this with VAF! I wish I had this back when I was first setting up my site in WP. I'm bookmarking it for future use
