    Hi there!

    I’ll be happy to help you with your questions today!

    I’m a wordy blogger and I want to upload pictures from my computer, change the size of them on the blog and ten fit them together in a pattern that works for various =sized pictures, use different font sizes, boldness,italic in my script, Can I copy and paste from a word document

    You can copy-paste from a Word document. However, it’s not recommended because doing so brings a lot of junk code. We have a process to paste from Word, but that will strip all formatting (Word formatting is different from web formatting).

    Microsoft Word is a fine word processor for producing documents to be shared or printed, with a wealth of print-based options for indexing, and producing table of contents. As a web publishing tool, however, it is a little less than ideal and produces very messy HTML. The same applies when using Google Docs, OpenOffice, or other word processors. Because of this, we strongly encourage our users

    Please give it a read. My suggestion is to copy-paste the text to the WordPress editor and then add formatting to your liking.

    is there a contact page for viewers to leave messages?

    do readers receive a heads-up email that i have added a new blog?

    Yes! However, they must be subscribed via email to receive new post notifications sent to their inbox. To encourage subscriptions, you can insert a subscription form anywhere on your site (on posts and pages).

    Is Blue host word press the same as word press?

    The two are quite different. A WordPress site hosted elsewhere, like Bluehost, is also called a self-hosted WordPress.org site, where you’re responsible for many of the technical side of things (like updating software, ensuring security, backups, and more). On WordPress.com, we take care of the technical aspects so that you can focus on customizing your site and creating content.
