Freedom of Speech with WordPress

In this season it seems that”Big Tech” companies are being accused of blocking or removing content provided by conservative voices. It is no secret that companies like Google, Facebook and Twitter lean more favorably towards liberal ideals. At times information and even facts which are posted on government websites and then are shared on Social Media platforms have the content removed.

Using a self-hosted WordPress website can provide a safe place to publish ideas that might get blocked or removed on other platforms. Publishing your own content on the shared WordPress.com hosting platform can also be a great option.

At WordPress.com, we’re committed to freedom of speech: our core mission is to democratize publishing. Our service allows anyone on the web to express their ideas and opinions, whether we agree with them or not — we don’t censor, moderate, or endorse the content of any site we host.

With WordPress you have two choices. You can setup a Free account at WordPress.com and start posting your own content including images, Podcast audios and videos. Or, you can purchase your own Domain Name and setup a hosting account and install WordPress yourself with a company like MSM Instant Webs Hosting for less than $60.00/year.

In a couple days I will post a video about how to build a website on WordPress.com and if you want to be notified when that gets posted, simply add your email address and name to the Subscribe for Updates box on the right.

Below is a replay of the video on WordPress Training I did in April.

What can you do if YouTube shuts down your account
or deletes your videos?

There are other video hosting solutions out there besides using YouTube. When you own and manage your own personal or business website built on WordPress it is easy to embed videos from other services. I will give you information and tips on those in the coming days.
