Blog- I would recommend going with WordPress. Some hosting companies will have a "one click install" in the hosting control panel and you can have WordPress set up in just a few minutes. If you get a hosting provider that does not offer this then you can install it yourself. You download the software from the WordPress website then you upload it to your server (host) using an FTP program such as Cute FTP or WS-FTP. Once you do that you will need to go into your hosting control panel and set up a database then just follow the directions included with the WordPress download.

The description that appears below your URL in Google search engine is the metatag description that was included in the source code of your page. The Description should contain an enticing and informative snapshot of what the website is about and it should appeal to all search engines to appear. While Google takes a page description of 150 characters, MSN often takes the initial 100 characters from the Meta Description. The description should make sense, convey all relevant information about the web page and entice the reader to read the page. It is also worthwhile placing one related keyword phrase within the Meta Description. If possible add a phone number in the description metatag.

Have you had your Java today? JavaScript is one of the most SEO friendly technologies. Unfortunately, it must be implemented judiciously so as not to create massive problems. For this reason alone, Java scripting should be handed over to a professional.

The funny thing about CSS is that it allows you to create your website in the fraction of the time when you would do it using tables. It's hard to believe, but still after all these years of promotion for CSS people (and companies!) still heavily rely on tables for layout. They have no idea that they are simply wasting time on old techniques that will be useless in a matter of time.

Let your links do the talking. "The words you use in your designs to link to other pages do matter," so shelve the outdated Click Heres and Learn Mores. Links are a examples great landing pages opportunity for you to build useful keywords into your web copy.

My how times have changed. Web hosting companies know it's practically a matter of redirecting your domain name to point to a new web hosting company. Then you just send your files from the old company to the new one and you are in business with a new provider.
