Wordpress Autoblogging For Newbies.Q&A

I figured I would start a thread for people who have never used wordpress before.There is alot of valuble info in here about wordpress autoblogs.I'm also new to wordpress myself and I really havn't gotten anywhere because of lack of knowledge.I would say that would be about 75% of newbies in here.I search the terms autoblogging on here all the time and wordpress is the way to go by popular demand.The thing that i'm sure that gets most newbies,including myself is,you need to know how to code,which I don't.You should have a real domain name.I don't have that either.Alot of people shy away from coding because they have never done it.

The first thing that probably gets alot of newbies when they here wordpress is,whats the difference between wordpress.org and wordpress.com.I followed a tutorial,I went to wordpress,org and downloaded the software but its all code.What the hell am I supposed to do with this.That was me.lol.Then I joined wordpress,com and was trying to figure out how to utilize all this stuff on my wordpress blog.Sadly to say after 4 hours of just navigating,searching and teying stuff,I ended up more confused from when I started.

Questions:

Is there a way without coding and using a domain to build a wordpress autoblog?
I've never heard of wordpress autoblogs..Where do I begin?
I don't know how to code,is there another option to autoblog?
Can you tell me how how to get up and running with a simple explanation?

These are just a few questions i'm sure alot of newbies have who have never autoblogged,coded or used wordpress.

I'm hoping this will be a useful thread with alot of Q&A for newbies and have alot of info to get them started.

1. There doesnt ever have to be any code involved with setting up an auto blog. Also domains are cheap and will help you rank, why not buy one?
2.Best place to begin is here on BHW. Search "autoblogs"
3. You dont need to know how to code. I have no idea what you downloaded that requires coding. YOu dont need that.

To get up and running.
Buy a domain, buy hosting, change nameservers to work with your domain. use fantastico to setup wordpress. FInd a theme you want to use. Install theme, Install plugins. Find RSS feeds you want to use for your autoblog. Put RSS feeds into plugins. Add some stuff like embedded youtube videos to make your blog look nice and rich in content. Monitize however you want. The end.

How do you select your keywords for each auto-blog? I have been going to the Google keyword tool and trying to chose words that have at least 1500 searches a month and that has a relatively low competition. I then look to see if that keyword is also available in a .com or .net domain name. I thought that this would work well but have 19 auto-blogs and all together I am making about $30 a month... which just covers my hosting costs. Should I have chosen words with more traffic than 1500 a month? I added all 19 of these to social bookmarking sites and thought that after 2 1/2 months they would be making more. Any thoughts?

I know autoblogs get better with time. More content=more keyword search options=more organic traffic=more opportunity for conversions.

But why is your hosting costing $30/month? Could get hosting cheaper maybe.

I dont know enough to tell you about your keyword questions though.

Do you have to pay for wordpress to create a autoblog?

There are several plugins that will create the content for you such as caffeinated content that I use that you do need to pay for.
However if you use the search button on here and search for either autoblogs or caffeinated content, you may be in for a pleasent surprise.
