WordPress is a Content Management System (CMS). Written in PHP and runs just right on a LAMP server. Your host may provide an auto install script called Fantastico that will aid you in installing WordPress.
WordPress is used for what you are trying to do. A forum would be a separate piece of software.

Hi Mike,
You may be onto something. My suggestion is to use a blog like WordPress. Lots of plugins and lots less programming. You will tire at some point dealing with static pages.
WordPress was made for what you are trying to do. Or a forum might be good. I'd look at WordPress. Not WprdPress.com. Host your own on your domain.

I created a webpage and I need opinions of the advertisement I'm putting on it. Could you please proof read it and tell me if it would turn you off or on or indifferant?

Mike here,
You know, I
wanted
to find a work-from-home job so badly that I followed many leads and
I got scammed many times. Good news though! I
finally found a web page that really does give work-from-home job
opportunities. These jobs range from computer programmers to cartoon
artists; from telephone interviewers to social workers; from
proofreaders to typists. A great number of other opportunities are also
at this site just awaiting an applicant. I
feel as if I should just give the webpage to you but I also feel I've
been scammed so often
that I need to recoup some of my losses. So, simply pay $5.00 via
paypal
to havens.business<@>gmail<.>com and I'll send you the
site. True, you could find it on your own; but I never did in the
years of my search. I had to pay substantially more than the
five
I'm asking for... but what I did pay for is (in my opinion)
unreasonable. I
figure $5 is a fair
price... not to much but perhaps too little. However, I know that if
you are unemployed you are watching every penny so I definately don't
want to hurt you. In fact, the site itself is free (at least it was when I used it) so there will be no further charges. If you don't have a paypal account you
can sign
up for it for free and then link it to
a bank account or a credit card. So the excuse that you don't have a paypal account
is a lame excuse.
Have a good day ya-all!
