I want to launch a straightforward blog where I can quickly write posts and add images without fuss. At the moment I only plan to publish text and image content. I’m leaning toward WordPress because of its user-friendly editor, but I still need a bit of guidance to be sure it’s the right choice and to learn which light-weight theme and plugins will keep things simple. Here’s what I expect: • Set up WordPress on my hosting (or advise on a suitable low-cost host if needed). • Pick and install a clean, responsive theme that keeps the focus on my articles and photos. • Configure the editor so I can easily create posts, format text, and insert images. • Add only essential plugins—for example basic SEO, image optimisation, and security—so the site stays fast. • Show me, in a short call or step-by-step notes, how to log in, write, publish, and manage media. Keep the build minimal and easy to maintain; no complex custom coding is required right now. If WordPress turns out not to be the best fit, feel free to explain the pros and cons and suggest an alternative of similar simplicity.
