HOW TO DESIGN A WEBSITE USING BLOGGER WORD PRESS PHP ETC - OWN A WEBSITE

Are you ready to become a better blogger? Great, let's begin! There are so many ways to improve your blogging skills and website (which I am going to cover) but first I want to start with the basics. I assume that you already have either a Google Blogger or WordPress blog setup otherwise you wouldn't have registered to download a free template, correct? (Silly question I know) Both services are free and easy to use which is great for new bloggers, but in the long run they are limited from a branding and making money standpoint. For example, WordPress.com will not allow you to put any advertising on your blog and with Blogger you are stuck with their rules and guidelines. Since they are hosted blogs, you are building up traffic to their domain and website, not yours. This is fine if you are new and just trying to understand how blogging works, but if you are trying to build a brand and make money on your website, you'll be better off having your own site. If you want to take advantage of the benefits I just mentioned follow these easy steps. Step #1 --------------- I recommend you register your own domain name if you haven't already. I do this for all my blogs and it's really the best way to go. If you decide to stay with Google Blogger, that's fine. You can use this new domain on your existing Blogger site. Your blog will have YourName.com instead of yourname.blogspot.com. From a branding and search engine stand point, this will be very important down the road. The cost of registering a domain name is less than $10 so it's not a huge investment. I register all my domain names at GoDaddy.com. They're the biggest domain name company in the world. They also offer web hosting but I have never used them for that so I can't comment on how good they are. But for domain names, they're the one to go with. Step #2 --------------- Next you will need blogging software. The best blogging software to use is WordPress. All my blogs are powered by WordPress. Blogger and don't want to change, you can just point your new domain name to your existing site. Read this tutorial on how to do this. For those of you who want to build your site the recommended way the first time without having to worry about moving all your posts later, you need to get WordPress. With WordPress, you need a place to host your blog. I recommend using a blog hosting company called Bluehost. They offer great services and often include a free domain name with your purchase. On top of that, they'll even install WordPress for you. Their hosting packages start at $6.95 per month which ends up being like 25 cents per day. Then you will have your very own website and don't ever need to worry about changing your domain name or moving all your website content. Trust me, I've done it before and setting up your own website correctly the first time will save you a lot of hassle down the road. So now you should be all setup with a professional domain name and website! Stay tuned for more tips and tricks in the coming weeks. To Your Blogging Success, www.naijasoftwarecheats.com
