Registering a domain name
Registering a domain name is a pretty straight forward process. There is no waiting time involved in the process. First of all, think of a name that you want to register. Then go to a domain registration site like Godaddy or Namecheap and find whether it can be registered or not. If the domain is already registered by someone, then you’ll have to look for another one. It’s better to register a .com domain name rather than going with other domain name extensions.
If you don’t have much money with you to register a .com domain name, then you should try registering a .info domain name. Domain names with .info extensions cost just a fraction of .com registration fee. You’ll be getting them for under 2.5 USD. When registering a domain name, you’ll be asked to enter your name, address, phone number and email address. Once you enter those details and make the payment, the domain registration process would be officially completed. Your next job should be to host the site online. Even that process is simple and straight forward. Once you register and host a site on your own, you’ll understand how easy it is to create a website.
Once you make the payment, you’ll get a confirmation email from the domain name registrar mentioning that the domain has been successfully registered. Now it’s time to login to your domain management account with the username and password that you entered while registering account at the domain registration website. After you login to your domain management account, you’ll see all the domain names that you have registered there, with them. Next, click on the newly registered domain name, and change the nameserver details. Before you change the nameserver details, you should order an hosting account from a hosting provider. After you do that, you’ll be provided with nameserver details in your email. You should enter those nameserver details by clicking on your domain name in your domain management account.
What Do I Need to Start Building a WordPress Website- WordPress Website Builder
What Do I Need to Start Building a WordPress Website? WordPress Website Builder
Building a WordPress website seems easy for some people, however I have showed various students how to do this and it takes everyone at least 3 lessons to get it down pat. That’s not bad either. We are talking about creating a website, much like building a house, it can become a cyber property with true value.
When you start using WordPress you will be amazed at how fast you can have a website (or blog) up and running. After learning a few simple tricks you could probably get a WordPress website built in less than five minutes. The thing is, I believe that anyone can do this and that practice makes perfect.
What do I need to be a WordPress Website Builder?
1. Web hosting that has Cpanel and Fantastico so it is easy for you to install websites. I use HostGator but there are heaps of website hosting companies that compete with each other. They all are trying to give good service to their customers so they can stay in this highly competitive field.
2. You will also need to buy a domain name. There are plenty of places to buy a domain name. I use Namecheap but you can use any name reseller or if you have a spare domain name lying around you can use that. LOL Am I the only person who has 37 spare domain names lying around?
3. You will need self discipline and determination. You also have to be an action taker!
Please note if you are not willing to pay for hosting and a domain name then you are not serious about building websites. I suggest you start a blog at blogger.com until you prove to yourself that this is for you.
Steps to building a WordPress website:
1. Buy WordPress website hosting if you do not have it.2. Do keyword research and find a niche.3. Buy a domain name with your niche keywords in it.4. Point your domain name to your hosting account.5. Go to your cpanel to add on a domain. See how to add a domain in your hosting.6. Go to the Fantastico icon in Cpanel and press on the WordPress link.7. Install a WordPress website/blog.

Make money blogging
If you are thinking of making money by blogging, then you should be with a lot of blogs. With just one or two blogs, you won’t be getting anywhere near to even $ 100 per month. But before you think about making money this way, you should be having experience running at least a single blog in the past. If you are already having a blog of your own, then it’s okay. Otherwise start with one blog, and keep blogging for at least a month, before you follow what we are gonna mention here.
It’s better to start with 20 blogs. These 20 blogs should be about different niches. Articles should be posted in these blogs on a daily basis. If you are good at blogging, then it’s better to post an article in each of the 20 blogs on your own. This way, after a month you’ll be with 30 posts in each of the 20 blogs. And if these blogs are with decent traffic, then you would be able to sell links in them. On an average you’ll be getting at least $ 10 per month from a blog. So, from 20 blogs you’ll be getting $200. If you sell, like 10 links in each of the blogs, then you’ll be getting like $50 from a blog. And if that’s the case, your monthly earnings from the 20 blogs will be around $ 1000.
One thing to remember before creating blogs is that – the domain names should be good ones. It can help you in getting higher page ranks for your blogs. A high PR blog will help you earn more money online, per month, than a lower one. You should also do a lot of promotions to your blogs. Getting backlinks can do miracles to your blogs. So, go for it, if you think you’ll be able to do it on your own. Otherwise hire someone to do it for you.
And if you are putting adsense, in the blogs, then your earnings will be even more than what we have mentioned above. After you continue with such a plan for about 3-4 months, you’ll be with the money to hire workers to do all these things. From then on things will be pretty automated – and you can concentrate just on earning more and more money out of the blogs – without doing all those time consuming works.

All about a keyword rich domain
A good domain name will get you a good page rank. It’s always a good idea to register domain names with keywords that you are planning to target. For example, if you are selling toys online, then it would be better for you to register buytoysonline.com
In the above case, When people type in the keyword “buy toys online”, there is a high chance that – your site will be popping out in the first page of search results.
After you register a domain name – in a manner like we have explained above, you can start getting content for the site. Even in the articles that you are gonna publish in your site, keywords are important. Doing so, can get you in the first page of search results in most of the search engines including Google.
Create as many content pages in your site as possible and link between the pages at appropriate places. You may link to the keywords that you are targeting. It would be helping the link juice in your site to flow throughout the entire site.
After creating content pages in your site, you may create some free blogs and write content related to your niche on those sites also. The advantage of doing this is that – in the middle of the articles, you’ll be able to put links to your original site. This can get traffic and also increase the number of backlinks to your original site. When linking to your original site, give hyperlinks to the keywords that you are targeting – and they should point to pages in your original site(the one you’re gonna promote). For example, if you are planning to sell toys, then link to the words “buy toys online” or something like that. And the link should point to pages in your original site.
After that, you may also try some SEO tricks and methods to increase the PR of your newly created site. You can attempt blog commenting, article marketing in sites like ezinearticles, and social submission and social networking as well.
