So you just have to follow through all the steps and you'll be fine. You don't need the experience

Matter-of-fact after day you've got experience

You can go all the website you want now whether you're already

Interested in building a site or you're kind of on the fence about doing this this tutorial is for everybody at every level

It's really super easy and it's simple to follow

Okay, so you're gonna know in what order to do these steps also because that's also very very important in doing this quickly

So everyone really needs a website nowadays, right? I mean websites are extremely versatile

You can do a blog if you wanted it can be about fashion or travel or business or whatever you want

Matter of fact you can use it for personal branding

Something that has your resume maybe your portfolio of work on it. You can even create an online business

I have a bunch of online businesses in e-commerce. You could sell products you could sell services

Websites are really so simple and so inexpensive now that you really can't afford not to have one

So this this video is for everybody because everybody needs a website. So, how are we gonna do this website?

Well, we're going to use something called WordPress

which you may have heard about it's one of the largest platforms in the world to build a

Website on and it's super easy to do so, don't worry about that

WordPress is really just a content management system or a

CMS, so WordPress allows you to create and customize a website with different styles and themes that are

All pre-built for you. All you got to do is just add your personal content to it

You can add all types of plugins that are tools to help you customize your site

So you never ever have to touch a line of code. You don't have to know how to do that stuff

It actually allows you to make changes to your websites simple. And actually it's kind of fun. Okay, so here's what you're gonna need

It's only three things

The first thing you're gonna need is a domain URL now quite simply put all that is is the name of your website

For example, my website is JR Fisher com. That's the domain name. Now these things are incredibly cheap

They're usually paid for yearly and they're gonna rent you about ten bucks a year

So now a big amount of money. The next thing you're gonna need is web hosting now, you pay a company to use their servers

Okay to keep your website up on the Internet

Hey, this is gonna run you about and then maybe four to eight dollars a month

and that's also paid annually now you want to use

Wordpress.org because it's free

wordpress.org versus wordpress.com

Org offers you the open source that allows you to customize your website with ease

Now the dot-com is kind of like a lite version and it has really limited functionality

So you only need these three things. It used to be more difficult because you would have to get all of these items together and

Kind of patch them together and get them separately. But now you can do it in one place

all you have to do is sign up for

web hosting which I'll put a link in the bottom there and all you have to do is click on it and once you have

Your web hosting it'll lead you through the path of all the rest of the things you need

So that you can follow along

What I want you to do is click the link below and it's gonna take you to my website

And it has all these steps and all you got to do is check them off as you go so it doesn't get any easier

Than that now we're going to get into the easy

Step-by-step process and you'll have a website in no time if you need any help

I do want to remind you with any of these steps

Just feel free to comment below with any questions and I'll respond back to you and we'll get you going

So let's take a look at our first step now

Okay, so here I am at Bluehost calm. And as you go across the top here, you're gonna see a lot of different options

What you want to do first off if you haven't picked a domain name?

you want to go over hosting here and go all the way down to domains and

then you want to put in whatever you want and it will let you know if it's available like build a

whoops build a website

Now I'm figuring this one here will be taken. So let's search

and

When we search it's gonna give me a results. This is the domain build a website is not available for registration

okay, so we would have to go back and

Put in another one now. I've got one I've already searched

And it is make a website zone and I'm going to search it right here and it's gonna tell me that it's available

Because I've already checked this and it's gonna ask me to create an account now

we can either start right here and create an account or we can go back and

On the main website itself, if you already know the domain you want you've already checked it

You can click get started now

Now when it's one get started an L. What it's gonna do is gonna ask you to select your plan. Okay

so the basic plan is this one here, which is three dollars and ninety-five cents a month or you could go up to

595 a month or you could go to this one right here. So let's take a look at all the plans

Let's pick the cheapest plan. We'll check this to pick this one right here. And

Then I'm gonna go ahead and put my domain in now if you click the link

I gave you it's gonna get my domain for free. Okay, and that's really cool. So I'm gonna type in that domain and

click Next

If you already have a domain you'll put it here and switch it over, but we don't have this one

So I put in all my information right here

Now when you get to down here you're gonna have to pick your basic package whatever you want the cheapest one is

$5.95 a month that's a twelve month price. If you go 24 a month, it's for ninety five

Thirty six month is three ninety five. So I'm just gonna pick the cheapest one right here and

It's gonna give me my primary domain registration for free if you click that link

I gave you now down here all of these extra things. You really don't need with the exception of domain privacy protection

Now what domain privacy protection does is that if somebody tries to look up the owner of a website and get all their information?

It will block it so they can't see that so I'm gonna leave that on here and I'm gonna get rid of these other things

here and

That's gonna bring my total up to eighty three twenty eight. I'm going to put in my card number

You do have to check this box right here where it says

I agree to the terms and click Submit now once in his process, it'll say congratulation

Welcome to Bluehost here are a few special offers for you. Ok, so we don't want to need more special offers

We're gonna say no. Thanks

And then it's going to ask me to choose a password for my account, so right now I'm gonna create a new password

I'll type that in

You have to click right here that you agree to their privacy policy in terms of service

Which I have now done and I've successfully created a new password, so now I can just log in

Now I could pick a theme right now if I wanted to and I can always change it later

So let's just scroll through and see what we've got here. Um

What do I want

I'm gonna go with this one here. This looks kind of cool now

You don't have to do that

If you want you can go down here to skip this step right now

But I'm just gonna go ahead and select one to show you how it's done

Now it says it's setting up WordPress for me that's what I really like about this is all of this is automated

You don't have to do a thing and this can take a few minutes

Ok, and it's installed. It's really that simple then I can click on start building right here

And boom I'm right inside my dashboard now with all of my tools

We can pick what we want here. And I'm gonna pick that this is a business site

Ok and

When I launch the site, this is the site title site description. I may say

learn how to

Build WordPress sites with ease, okay

The perfect site to learn how to build

WordPress sites

And then I'll click next step

And it says here let's launch learn to build WordPress sites with ease

Are you going to update your site with news or blog post and I'll say yes

okay, and

Right here. It says

What would visitors like to see on the home page? I'm gonna go with this one right here a static. Welcome page

And let's see here build a starter contact page sure why not

Okay, connect your jetpack profile and I want to do that at this time so I'm gonna say no

And I could add my business address right here which I have it pre-populated and then I'm gonna go to the next step

Are you looking to sell online if I want to sell products online I would install WooCommerce

now I'm gonna go ahead and install this just so I have it and you may want to do that too because just because you

have

Something installed does not mean you necessarily need to use it. Okay?

so now what I've done here is I've installed the entire website and if I want to

Edit my title and description I would do it here my homepage layout here my welcome page here my Contact Us page right here

Let's see what else I can edit my business address here and

I could install WooCommerce here if I want to do that

So here's where I would go to customize my site and there it is. There's my site all set up and ready to go

Okay. So when you click on dashboard over here, this is where I want you to go

You can scroll through here

And what WordPress has done here is they're going to start suggesting to

Plugins and plugins or things that do a particular task for you on your website

So the first one here is trying to get you to get

Constant contact for free and I'm gonna get rid of that because I don't want that email provider

And that way I don't keep seeing that particular one

This is a good one here. Please configure your Google Analytics setting you do want to do that get all that set up and

Let's just scroll through here real quick

This down here is how you customize your site and I want to go through all of these

Items on the menus side right here, too

But right down here, it has a program called jetpack if you want it and you could set up jetpack here

Right down here. It's offering me optinmonster, which is a little

Pop-up that grabs people's email addresses and integrates those with my email provider

Which I do not have integrated yet

And you can just scroll down and see all that but let's go through each one of these things here. Here's your Bluehost tab

So if you need to get to Bluehost for any reason you go there this is the jetpack one, which they've automatically installed

Now sometimes people get confused because there's several things on a website

Now the first one who's gonna be post a post would be anything that you would put in a blog

So that on the home page?

If you put a new post in the way, this is set up now is it will automatically appear on the home page?

okay, so you could look at all posts and we'll click on that real quick and

Right now we don't have a lot of posts. We got one that says hello world. That's it

So we could take that particular one we could click on it

so if somebody was actually searching for a post and I put

Actually see it. I'm going to click my Update button

So there's the picture and if you want to do any editing you can edit right here

If you want to change the size of it, so, you know if you want to make it bigger or smaller

But we want to have a way for our visitors to get around our site

So what we're going to do is we'll go to appearance

We're gonna go down to where it says menus and what we're gonna actually do is we're gonna add a navigation bar

So let me put that in here

And if there's one you don't want in here, let's say we don't want sample page in here

Well remove it

So we've got a wordpress page and contact us and about us that we've built and we're gonna just gonna click on create menu

Ok, once we've clicked on create menu. We click right here and we go primary menu

This is really important or it won't show up

A lot of times people will make this menu and I can't figure why it doesn't show up

That's why so I'm gonna save the menu now, that's now our primary menu. So let's check it out

we'll go to our pages and we'll just pick any page just to see if it showed up on there about us and

then we'll go to that URL and

Then there it is home about us contact us WordPress page
