Intro

This tutorial is aiming to help bloggers who already have a website and want the look of their new blog to be the same as the rest of the site. It assumes that you are familiar with basic HTML and CSS code and rules. For the PHP code lines involved in the process you only need to be able to perform accurate Copy-Paste operations.
Depending on the basic layout of your existing site it will guide you step by step through the process of making your WP blog looking similar to your webpages.
This guide is not a tutorial for integrating your blog via iframes or displaying your posts through RSS feeds or, by using different “recent posts” techniques and plugins.
