Introduction

This article introduces Jetpack, a useful Word Press plug-in.

What is a  WordPress?

WordPress is a free home page blogging tool. WordPress has the highest share in the world. Also known as Content Management System (Contents Management System), content can be created and rearranged intuitively without any code implementation.

WordPress is divided into a software version of “WordPress.org (WordPress Dot Org)” and a free blogging service “WordPress.com (WordPress.com)”. Use WordPress.org if you want to customize using plugins, etc., or WordPress.com if you want to use it exclusively for blogs.

What Is Jetpack?

Jetpack is the official WordPress plugin. Jetpack is a utility plugin that provides access to more than 30 features, including analytics and SEO countermeasures, just by adding one.

We recommend that you stop enabling any plugins that are already enabled and have similar functionality because they may conflict within your site.

 

How to install Jetpack

Installation is simple. Go to the WordPress Admin screen and select Plugins > Add New.

Click “Install Now”. When the installation is complete, the button will change to “enabling”. Click Enable. Jetpack is now enabled.

Using Jetpack

Here’s how to use Jetpack. As a general premise, you’ll need to work with WordPress.com to actually use Jetpack. Therefore, you must first create an account for WordPress.com.
