Step-by-step guide to creating a website
Step 1
Register a Domain Name
Domain name is a "unique" human readable Internet address. To setup a website, you'll need a domain name. Choose a domain name that is easy to remember, and the one you can match your social media accounts such as Twitter, YouTube or Facebook page.

To register a domain name, you'll have to pick a name that suits your purpose. A domain name can consist of alphabet, numbers, and - (dash). The name cannot start with a dash. The iplocation.net is the domain name we used to publish this website. You may choose to find one that meets your personal or business needs. You may register a domain name online from Godaddy, a deeply discounted ICANN accredited domain registrar. The cost of domain name registration is less than $15 per year.

Step 2
Setup Web Hosting from a reputable web host
Web hosting is known as providing storage space for websites, and delivering contents stored on the server to the Internet users when requested. A web hosting provider, also known as the web host, is also responsible for providing databases, email services, and other value-added services for publishing a website. No website can exist without web hosting. Since your website needs to be up 24x7 and you need uninterrupted email services, it is important that you find a reliable web host. Moving a website from one web host to another can be tedious and troublesome, so finding a right web host the first time will save lots of time and hassle.

As with the domain name, there are many reputable web hosts that you can choose from. Managing your domain name and web hosting service together from a single vendor makes it easy to manage your web properties. You may purchase a web hosting service online from Blue Host, a deeply discounted but reputable web host. To learn more about web hosting, please visit our Web Hosting section of this website.

Choose a platform (i.e. Wordpress, Drupal or HTML)[color=#006600][/color]
A website is comprised of many web pages, and each web page is made out of a HTML (HyperText Markup Language) document. Think of a web page as a single page document, and a website as a book containing documents comprising of sections of a book. You may create static web pages to create a website, but use of a content management systems like Wordpress, Drupal or Joomla will ease your construction process.

Of all website exist today, 22% of them are created with Wordpress. Wordpress is one of the most popular content management system existing today with 68% of market share with very large support community.

The advantage of using popular CMS such as Wordpress is ease of styling your website with Themes. There are thousands of Free and Commercial themes available which you can install to create a professional looking website.
Step 5
Publish your website and drive traffic to your website
Once you've designed your website with a new Theme or Template Builder, you'll have to add content to your website. People visit your website with an intent, and as a webmaster of your new website you must fulfill visitors' intent.

With contents added to your website, you're ready to go live. Let your friends and acquaintances know about your website, and gather feedback on shortcomings and improvements you can make. Once you're happy with contents and presentation of the website, let the world know about your website by submitting your website to search engines. The best way to drive traffic to your website is by adding good contents, so continue to add valuable contents as well as promoting your website.
