 * There are several ways to do it. One common way is just using HTML <blink> </
   blink> tags.

 * How do I get into HTML. Tried cPanel and I can’t find my pages. Thanks for any
   help you can offer.

 * Depends on where you want to put it. If you want it in your post, you can simply
   click on the text tab. If you want it elsewhere, you can drop it in either via
   FTP or WP admin through Appearance | Editor.

 * However, you should also be aware that blinking text can cause seizures in people
   with photo-sensitive epilepsy.

 * Use the text editor when editing your page/post.
 * Keep in mind that the <blink> element is deprecated in HTML5, is really annoying,
   and generally looks unprofessional.
