			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>Getting a blog started is easy with </strong><a title="WordPress " href="http://www.wp.com" target="_blank"><strong>WordPress</strong></a><strong>. There are 2 options for how to install it which have some advantages and disadvantages:</strong></p>
<ol style="text-align:left;">
<li>
<div><strong>Create a blog directly on wordpress, for example <a title="Ourfingertips Blog" href="http://ourfingertips.wordpress.com/">ourfingertips.wordpress.com</a></strong><a href="http://ourfingertips.wordpress.com/"></a><br />
<strong>Some advantages:</strong> can be free, easiest setup &#8211; can do it all yourself, you don&#8217;t need a website or domain, many features and plugins installed and updated automatically.<br />
<strong>Some disadvantages:</strong> limited admin features and plugins, personal data is stored on their servers, have to pay yearly to keep advertising off your blog or to customize the look.<br />
 </div>
</li>
<li>
<div><strong>Install wordpress into your existing website, for example <a title="Ourfingertips Blog" href="http://www.ourfingertips.com/wordpress">www.ourfingertips.com/wordpress</a></strong><a href="http://ourfingertips.wordpress.com/"></a><br />
<strong>Some advantages:</strong> it&#8217;s free and easy to install, personal data remains on your own server, no unwanted advertising, can easily and fully customize the look, unlimited admin features and plugins.<br />
<strong>Some disadvantages:</strong> will need manual maintenance and updates from time to time, may need help with advanced setup and customization. </div>
</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>Which install option you should use depends on your needs. Basically I tend to recommend blog install option 1 for individuals and option 2 for business.</strong></p>
