Step 3: How to Use Your Blog
If you haven't installed WordPress yet, please go back to Step 2 to learn how to do it.
Once you have WordPress installed in your domain name you are almost ready to start blogging. In this step I will only show the basics to get the start-up and operation of your new WordPress blog. The next step after this will show you some more advanced changes that you can make to customize the design and structure of your blog.
Log in
To start, you must log in to your blog. Go to http://www.tublog.com/wp-admin to load the Login screen (replace “tusitio.com” with your domain name). If you are not sure of your login name or password, check the email Softaculous sent you after you installed your blog in Step 2.

Change the language of your blog
Once you log in you will be in the WordPress administration area. This is where you can make all the changes you want to your blog. To start, you'll want to change the language to Spanish. To do so, go to the bottom of the left menu and click on “Settings”. That should go to this screen:

At the bottom of that screen you will see a drop-down box next to "Site Language". Choose your language in the box and then click on the blue “Save Changes” button
Rename your Blog
Now that the language has changed, let's change the title of your blog. To do this, find the boxes called “Site title” and “Short description”.
Enter what you want in these two boxes and then scroll to the bottom and click on the “Save changes” button.
Once you save these changes you will be immediately live on your blog. To see how your blog looks at any time you can simply type your domain name in the browser and press enter.
