  As a new user I am having great difficulty in setting up my travel blog site. I have been using Travelpod ( which I found easy to use but is unfortunately closing down ) and have found the instructional videos for this website pretty useless as they go far too quickly. Has anyone an idiots guide to using this site please as it could help me enormously. Otherwise I will probably give up and try another website to prepare my next holiday blog. Thanks in anticipation,
  John

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Look over these pages:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/start/
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/customize/

  And as you have questions, ask here in the forums…

  And try the search box on the support page. WordPress.com has strong documentation…

  Look at the sidebar on this page to explore available support topics further:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/category/writing-editing/

  And if course you can type in a term to search support documentation.

  Ask specific questions on these forums. There are many volunteers as well as knowledgeable and helpful staff who are ready to lend a hand.

  Hi there, just to add to what @houstonweaver has said, in my opinion the best A-Z, step-by-step guide is this one: https://learn.wordpress.com

  Let us know what questions you have as you go and we’ll do our best to help.
