Once you have installed Joomla you can start building your blog. First, navigate to the website’s login page by entering this URL: www.yourdomainname.com/administrator. Make sure to substitute yourdomainname.com with your own domain name.
There you should enter the login credentials, which you have chosen during the installation process. Then you will enter the Administration area of the Joomla script.
To start writing your posts in your Joomla blog, you should first make sure to create the corresponding category. You should click on the Content menu > Categories > Add New Categorybutton.
