Blogging (writing articles on a blog or website) is one of the first ways to make money online. If writing is your hobby then you can earn money through website if you can write interesting about any subject. There are already a lot of people in our country making millions through this blogging. Do you want to start a website like this and earn money by writing articles? You do not need coding to create a website. You can easily create your own website. Let us now learn about it step by step in detail.
Selecting website Topic:
First decide on what topic you want to start the website on. This is the most important thing of all. Choose the topic on which you are interested and have good knowledge. Because many people start a website on a topic that they are not interested in. Will be fine for a while. But then they get bored. Because they have no interest in that topic. With that, new articles could not be written. The website will be abandoned in the meantime. All day hard, wasted money. So even if it takes a little longer either think about and choose any topic you like. It can be any topic like technology, health, passion, movies, cuisine.
Buying a Domain Name for website:
Domain Name is simply an address to your website. For example our shoora blog domain name www.shoora9.blogspot.com If you do a Google search for this domain name our shoora blog,our blog will open. Also select a domain for the website you are going to put up.
Some tips to keep in mind before choosing a domain name:
1. Make sure your domain name is close to the topic you have chosen. For example, if you want to start a website related to movies then make sure that the domain has words like Movies, Cinema, Film. That way, as soon as people see your domain, it's easy to understand that it's a movie website.
2. Make sure the domain name is short. Make sure the domain you choose is as small as possible and easy for people to remember. For example www. The domain www.movienews.com is easier to remember than the domain bestmovienews.com.
3. Make sure the .com is at the end of the domain name. But for the most part domains like .com have sold out. It's okay if you do not have .com at the end of your domain name .Net or .in or .org.
Now you need to check if the domain name you want is available to us online or if someone has already bought that name and buy that domain. If you want to buy a domain name, register on the Godaddy website and buy a domain. Because most of all the domain on this Godaddy website is available at a low price.
Choosing a Platform for website:
There are essentially two platforms if you want to start a website. 1.Blogger 2.Wordpress. Let's look at these in detail
Blogger: Blogger is Google's Platform. You can create a website for free on this blogger. But the website created by Blogger is not so good to look at. It also has less features.
WordPress: More than 90% of the websites on the Internet are created by WordPress. In this you can make the website as you want. The website created by WordPress is very professional to look at. Themes in WordPress are tailored to the topic you choose. You can use any Themes or Plugins you want. Wordpress is the best choice for you if you want to make money through website for a long time. I would however advise you to start the website through WordPress itself.
Choosing Hosting for website:
If you want to create a website through WordPress, you must first take hosting. Let's see what hosting is.
Hosting means that if you write an article on a website, you create a file. That means you create some files through WordPress. This hosting stores all such files on servers and makes your website visible to anyone who searches the internet. Without this hosting your website will not appear on the internet.
So you need to buy a hosting for your website. BlueHost and Hostgator are good companies among the hosting providers. For this hosting one has to pay up to around 3000 rupees per year. BlueHost, however, offers 50% off at a time. If you buy at that time you will get the hosting at an even lower price. So register with BlueHost and select the plan you want and buy Hosting.
Setting up a website:
After you purchase a hosting plan you will need to connect your Godaddy purchased domain, WordPress and the hosting you have taken. It's not a big deal. Here's how to connect these. There are a lot of videos on YouTube about this. Connect the three Domain, WordPress, Hosting by looking at them and following step by step.
With this your website will be ready. Now you can design your website as you want in wordpress. Once everything is ready, start writing articles.
