Hello everyone! I just finished coding the first hand is on my website, and has validated HTML 4.01 and CSS 2.1. So, when you purchase your own domain and hosting, I thought about how to drive the last part of this process has gone so it was quite interesting for the first time. A small note here, I bought my domain through godaddy.com and web hosting hostgator.com. I chose these two companies because both have earned a solid reputation judging from the reviews I've read. As such, this article will apply the basic steps to find and purchase a URL (or domain name) with GoDaddy.com, hostgator.com choose a hosting plan, and then make a purchase.

Finally, the line by changing the name server (NS domainhost.com ####.) so that the URL links of the hosting space, which stores all files on the site. Before you begin, let me say that you must be an active, valid PayPal account or credit card to buy your URL and hosting space. STEP ONE: Go to godaddy.com and using the domain search bar (located in the upper right corner of the web site GoDaddy) to check the availability of the name of the site you want. Choose a domain name is surely the subject for another post, so we leave this now.

Second step: If the URL you want is available, it will take you to a page where you can select multiple versions of the URL you have chosen. For example, if your URL was bensboats.com, other versions may be offered or bensboatsonline.com sailbensboats.com If this is your first web site I can recommend to skip this option further, scroll to the bottom of the page and click on "Add and proceed to checkout" button:. STEP THREE The next page is also a range of alternative URL. Again, if new here, you probably need to click "No Thanks" button at the bottom yet.

STEP FOUR: This next page is mainly to choose how long you want the area before having to renew and purchase add-ons. To do this, select the desired time of drop-down menu (top of page). There are add ons below you can buy your domain name if you want. Select "No thank you" to the bottom box # 4 (unless you want them email you their stories) and when you're done, click "Continue" button at the bottom of the page. STEP FIVE raw Here you can see what domain (s) to come into your cart and the time to register them. 2. Choose whether you pay by credit card, paypal, or perhaps you have a gift card to enter. 3. Read universal TOS and domain registration agreement, and check the boxes next to each show that you agree with them.

STEP SIX: depending on how you choose to pay, you should be prompted to enter your billing information at this stage, you must complete. After this page, you can confirm your order and wait for confirmation of your email GoDaddy.com. STEP SEVEN When you have received confirmation from godaddy.com now you need to go to hostgator.com now and select "Web Hosting" from the menu at the top of the page. STEP EIGHT There are three plans available to personal hostgator.com and I recommend that you select the "Order Now" to "Baby" package, because it allows you to host unlimited domain for only $ 3.00 more than the "Young" package:. STEP nine as you've already purchased your own URL godaddy.com, click on "I'll use my existing domain name and update my name server only", then enter your URL into the box below and when you click on "next>>" button.

STEP TEN: The next page is a good opportunity to save money. In the coupon box I entered the text "1 cent" and click "Calculate>>" If you try this, you get your first month hosting for a penny, I think. If not try "googling" (yes there is a word now!): Hostgator coupons. See what happens:. STEP ELEVEN This page is an invoice for your order (he who makes the first month costs a penny) and near the bottom of the page are able to register an account if you do not already have one by clicking on "I am a new customer "before clicking" Continue>> "Twelve Steps: Fill out the information needed to create an account with hostgator.com and click on" check (your) to "Confirm your order on the next page and wait" Welcome email "" welcome@hostgator.com "This will include your name servers: it is very important for what we will do next time.

Step Thirteen: After receiving your e-mail Login Welcome to your cPanel and take a moment to look over once and for all to familiarize yourself with the card. So remember your server name of the welcome email you were sent back to go to connect to your right account.To godaddy.com where it shows your domain name, click the "Details link {} . on the left side, second from the top you see the name servers as right below, click on "Edit {}" link:. FOURTEEN STEP domains with another provider. "Choose the third and lowest" I cough my, and then change NAMESERVER2 NAMESERVER1 and name servers etc. that you received in your "Welcome Email" from hostgator.com.

STEP 15:00: Pat yourself on the back! Believe it or not, here, you made this part of the process! It was purchased your domain name and web hosting purchased a plan for your space is loaded, and you finally changed the name server so that the URL links of hosting space in which the site is.
