3. Many people promote products and
services without a website, through:
Facebook fan pages
Free blogs
Squidoo lens
Hubpages
or in many other ways
4. But by far the easiest way to get started
online is with your own
WordPress website
5. Your website doesn’t need to be a graphic
masterpiece or anything special, but the fact
that you have your own website will make a
difference in the eyes of your visitors
6. Today it’s possible to have a professional
looking website for free, thanks to
WordPress and their free blog platform
7. Here is an example blog
(actually, my dog Holly’s blog!)
11. The first step towards having your own
website is to register your own domain name
12. Your domain name is your website address
or “url” and begins http://
13. It’s the unique address of your website on
the Internet
For
example, http://womenswaytowealth.com
is my domain name for Women’s Way To
Wealth
14. Domain names contain two parts the actual name of your website (or
keyword you are going for) +
extension (.com, .net, .org and so on)
15. For example, google.com is a domain name
This domain name consist of actual name
(Google) and extension (.com)
16. Now, you can find domain names like
google.fr, google.co.uk and so on which are
country specific but I would only use those if
your site is country specific
17. For example, I have a property/real estate
site which is only for UK investors so that’s
a “.co.uk” domain
Otherwise stick with “.com” which is a
global domain
18. To find and register domain names I
recommend GoDaddy
(BTW, they have a 30% off sale at the moment)

20. Web hosting is a service that stores the
files for your website and makes them
available on the Internet
21. In general, when you are purchasing a web
hosting service, you are actually purchasing
a place on web server where your
website’s files will be hosted
22. Those web servers are constantly
connected to the Internet, differently than
how our computers are connected, and
that allows them to make your website
visible to any visitor at any time
23. Without a web hosting, your website
wouldn’t be available on the Internet
24. My preferred web hosting service is
Hostgator
It’s cost-effective (from $4.95 per month)
and they have amazing customer service
26. In this step you will see how easy and quick
it is to get your new website online
27. The only thing you need to do is to install
WordPress, which can be done pretty quickly
through the cPanel of your web hosting account
using the Fantastico smiley face icon
28. Install WordPress to the root of your
website, since that’s the most common choice
29. That means your WordPress based website
will be available when someone visits your
main website address – for example,
www.your-website.com
30. The only thing that you need to do is to enter all
other information, like:
Admin email
Blog title (name of your website)
your First and Last name
just for the purpose of creating your user
account in your new WordPress installation
31. When you are done click “Install Now” and
in less than 5 seconds WordPress will be
installed and your new website will be live
and available on the Internet
36. Literally there is a plugin for anything than
can come to your mind, or for anything you
can possibly need to add to your website
37. You can find plugins for:
search engine optimization (SEO)
back-linking
adding images
ratings
adding additional features to
your website
navigation
organization
schedule
subscriptions
and much more…
38. Also, keep in mind that there are
free and paid plugins
39. Some additions to websites are
“exclusive”, or some premium plugins can
do more job done than free plugins, which
is the main reason why they are paid
plugins
41. When you want to add content to your
website, simply go to
“Posts” -> “Add new” to add new blog post, or to
“Pages” -> “Add new” to add a new page
42. Pages appear on the navigation bar and are
static (such as “About”, “Contact”, “Training”)
43. Posts are usually blog posts and appear in
chronological order as you blog
49. So, are you ready to set up your website
and start blogging?
