I'm new to this blog stuff, so please bear with me. So I'm hosting a website from home. I want to make it into a blog, sort of.

Here is an example of what I mean. http://www.andrewsimz.com

I want to make something like this. Kind of like a personal blog. I understand you need a database, and you need some php code to write to this database. I think you also need an SQL server? I have no clue how to do this. Can some please point me in the right direction?

Yes...you will need to have PHP and MySQL installed on your server.

I would then suggest using a program such as WordPress (free) for your blog.

Yes, just use wordpress. It's easy to install.

Yep WP is relatively easier to install, I really like its great interface and powerful features.

I had to reformat my server, so it'll be a while before I can install it, but thanks you guys.

This is still not solved.
