I can show you how to make money online!!!
Before we can get started , YOU have to be online! Today I will show you how to build your first blog, which is surprisingly easy!
Make sure you take action as you read through my post or you will find yourself a month down the road and you still haven’t started! If you do have any troubles with this then hit the comments button and I will be happy to respond to your email.
First thing you need is a Domain
It is very important to choose a good domain, I often see long winded domains like, howtomakemoneyonline.com? Its really long, boring and has so many words you will spend so much time just typing the domain that you will give up.
Here’s what you should do, make the domain more interesting. Its all about being creative and not trying to get every keyword under the sun in your domain. Another way you can come up with new domain names is by putting the benefit and your keyword in a domain. It should tells the reader straight away the benefit of domain and why you should use the site.
For all my domain’s check out GoDaddy, it is the largest domain registrar in the world and that’s for a reason!
Hosting your Domain
The most important thing about running a Internet Business is that you have a reliable host, you are wasting your time without a decent one. I recommend to everyone to use HostGator, it’s cheap, reliable. Blue Host is another alternative. I have never heard a bad word said about them. Please do some research if you decide to find a better deal . The worst thing is to find your website goes offline and there isn’t any recent backup of your server.
Get It!
Connecting your Domain and Host
So to host your domain is really simple, login to you GoDaddy account and click Domains > My Domains and then click on your domain. Now click on the Nameservers Icon and change the custom nameservers to the ones HostGator would of emailed you, they would of been something like:
NS1.HostGator.com
NS2.HostGator.com
Once this is done, you will now be able to upload and install your blog!
Installing Your Blog
I will show you how to install Wordpress in about 30 seconds using Fantastico, not all hosts have Cpanel and Fantastico but if you are using HostGator like I recommended, they do!
So to start, go to YourDomain.com/cpanel and login with the admin details your host provided, scroll to the bottom and click Fantastico, now on the left hand side is a link to Wordpress, click that and click New Installation, fill in the form and then click Install Wordpress and you are done, now go to your domain and your blog will be installed.
It is really simple.
Adding Posts To Your Blog
If you now go to your blog on the right hand side of your blog there will be a link called Login (yourdomain.com/wp-login.php), click that and now login with your username and password. You will be presented with the Wordpress Dashboard, on the left side you will have a link to Add New under Posts. Click this and you will be able to add your first blog post
Get ready to blog!!!
Tomorrow I will show you how to add a theme to your blog to make it look “nice” and will show you around the blog admin and show you a few tricks I use to get the most out of my blog and making money!
