Creating new pages and posts within WordPress is very simple and pretty much the same so I’m going to get two birds with one stone and do both tutorials together. 
To Add a new Post or a new Page, go to Posts > Add New OR Pages Add New. This is the new post screen (the new page screen is VERY similar).
Add a new post or page. Click to Enlarge.
For Posts:
You can schedule posts to publish at a later time and date by clicking on “Edit” right next to “Publish immediately” on the right side of the post box. The “immediately” will change once you modify the time and date you want to post to publish.
You can add new categories and tags within this screen uses the boxes on the right and also set a featured image if your theme supports featured images.
If you’re not ready to publish the post yet, simply click “Save Draft”… if you’re ready.. just press the big blue “Publish” button.
For Pages:
You can schedule pages to publish at a later time and date by clicking on “Edit” right next to “Publish immediately” on the right side of the post box. The “immediately” will change once you modify the time and date you want to post to publish.
You can select “Parent Pages” by using the “Parent” Drop down menu. For instance, if you have a page called “Our Family” with general information about your family, you can create “Child Pages” for each family member. Say you create a page for child Suzy. You would have the parent page as “Our Family”. The permalink for this would show domain.com/ourfamily/suzy instead of domain.com/suzy/
If your theme has different page templates, you can also select which template to us with the Template drop down menu.
So you’ve got WordPress installed and now you need to know what everything in the dashboard does. Do not fear, below I’ve provided a little overview.

We have a winner! Drumroll please….
Who was assigned #2? Why that would be Shelley @ http://groundbeefbudget.com/ of course! Congratulations Shelley, you now have $100 more than you had this morning. I will be contacting you!
Attention Clients,
Please be advised that we will be performing an emergency maintenance tonight on one of our shared servers. Please read the details below. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Server Affected: Chocolate
Time: 9:00pm EST
Reason: Replace backup drive.
Estimated Downtime: 5-10 minutes (High latency may be experienced for a short while when the server gets back online)
We do apologize for the short notice, however, it is imperative that we replace the backup drive within Chocolate as soon as possible so as to not disrupt complete and usable backups.
Please plan accordingly.
UPDATE 10:07pm EST:
The backup drive has been successfully replaced and the server is now online. The load has returned to normal and all sites should now be resolving without error. Backups will continue to run nightly on Chocolate, as well as all servers here at Twenty70.
Happy New Year and Happy Saturday.
As most of you know, BlissDom 2012 is RIGHT around the corner on February 23-25 in Nashville. Unfortunately because my holidays were extremely busy this year and a trip to the ER the day after Christmas with a 103.7 fever, I didn’t have time to plan and launch a full sponsorship giveaway for BlissDom ’12. However, I really want to do something for BlissDom ’12 attendees and I know it’s not much but hey, winning $100 is $100 more than you had. #BrightSide. (Yes, I hash my posts… don’t judge. )
THIS GIVEAWAY IS OPEN TO CLIENTS AND NON-CLIENTS
Entering this Giveaway is extremely simple. All you have to do is post on your blog about the i.am.blogger promotion and tweet that you entered to win the $100 #BlissDom Extra Cash Giveaway from @Twenty70Hosting. You do not have to endorse Twenty70, obviously you can’t endorse a product or service if you’ve never used it so I would never ask you to do that! Currently this giveaway is only for $100; however, depending on it’s popularity (which only you can decide!) I may add an extra $100 for a second and third winner.
To enter:
A few things you may want to include in your post:
Promotional Image:
Winner Selection
Each entry will be assigned a number, the winner will be selected at random via random.org. Winner will be selected on Friday, February 17, 2012.
Giveaway Duration

Our preferred method of payout is via PayPal; however, if you do not have a PayPal account, we can send you a money order via snail mail.
Please Note: Twenty70 Hosting and this giveaway are in no way associated with the BlissDom Conference, it’s founders or official sponsors.
Referral Fee: The $5 referral fee that is part of the i.am.blogger promotion still applies to entry contestants. If, upon sign-up, a new client enters your domain or twitter handle in the “referred by” field, you will still receive $5 per referral. So you could still make money even if you don’t win.
If you have any questions about this giveaway, please feel free to leave a comment below or tweet me @Twenty70Hosting.
Happy New Year from Twenty70! We hope everyone has a wonderful 2012 and accomplishes everything you set your mind to. We’ve had a great 2.5 years so far and we’re still going strong thanks to our wonderful clients!
We continue to look forward to taking the world by storm in 2012.
Many Thanks and MUCH LOVE!!
Don’t worry if you missed i.am.blogger! We still have several affordable WordPress webhosting plans starting at $7 monthly with no contract.
You asked, we listened! The i.am.blogger $5/month hosting special is BACK! We thought “What better time to offer discounted hosting than right after you spent a lot of cash on clothes, toys, electronics and other must-haves during the holiday season?!” Start 2012 SAVING money! Transfer your WordPress blog to Twenty70 Hosting.
Now, I know what you’re thinking. As with most low-cost website hosting companies, they advertise a low monthly price but it’s with a multi-year contract. We’re not most companies! This is truly $5 per month, no contract, no strings. Furthermore, you’ll never have to pay for a domain name again because a free domain name is included with i.am.blogger. As long as you host with Twenty70, your domain name is on us.
The i.am.blogger package includes everything you need for your WordPress blog.
i.am.blogger:
Exciting, huh? We’ve also decided we’re also going to give a little somethin’ somethin’ as a THANK YOU to those who refer and spread the word about i.am.blogger.
If you’re a client: For every client you refer to Twenty70, we’ll credit your account $5.00, essentially giving you a free month of hosting. There is no limit! Refer 12 people, you’ve got the year FREE! OR you can choose to put that $5.00 towards a giftcard of your choice! #WIN
Not A Client?: Yes, even non-clients can benefit from i.am.blogger! For every client you refer to Twenty70, you will receive $5.00 towards a giftcard of your choice.
Please feel free to tweet, facebook, or blog about i.am.blogger! We’ve also made up a nice little promotion badge for you to include in your blog post, sidebar, or facebook page.
What are you waiting for? This promotion won’t last long so go take advantage of never having to pay for a domain name again!
i.am.blogger fine print:
i.am.blogger applicable to NEW blogs only. Current clients cannot purchase the i.am.blogger promotional package and transfer an already Twenty70 hosted blog to it. Sorry. 
Your domain name will be free as long as you host with Twenty70, if you transfer away from Twenty70 within 9 months of domain purchase/renewal, you will be responsible for the $12.99 purchase price. (I hate to add this but it has been taken advantage of in the past. Fail, right?)
One domain per package, there is no limit to number of packages that can be purchased.
If you would like to take advantage of our free transfer assistance, please contact us via the help desk at http://my.twenty70hosting.com
