Integrating a blog into a website!?
I recently created a website for my mother using Yahoo! Sitebuilder, and although I've had some trouble with it (I really know nothing about web design), I've managed to get it finished and published on the internet. My mom is a bit of a blogger and wants to put a blog on the site. I've been reading Blogging for Dummies, and none of it makes ANY sense. I activated 'WordPress' and 'Movable Type', but I really have no idea how to do anything on either of them! Basically, I need a step by step process of how to set up the blog, and integrate with my site. By that I mean, make it an actual page ON my site, not a page outside of my site. Keep it mind, I have no idea what CSS, or RSS means. Last but certainly not least, I installed 'Wordpress' onto my computer, and opened it as a zip file. After doing that, I extracted the files. According to Blogging for Dummies, I'm suppose to save the flie as something or other, but I don't even know how to do that! Please help!
