If they don't scam them, these oloshis end up relying on some unstable free hosting platform. After a while, the victim website gets deleted and they are back to square one.
Na wordpress fault sha, these chalartans abuse the purpose why wordpress was built.

This is one reason I don't do mass teaching of web design, it attracts all sorts of people who don't have passion and respect for this profession.



They have seen the desperado behaviours of the oloshis, and they think they can throw whatever at socalled web developers.



All the above and the level of customization if using pre-existing themes or building one from scratch.

Thumb up bro....you made a lot of point..this piece was inspired by recent experience of some fellows mostly here on Nairaland that says they want website built for me only to start quoting ridiculous amount for the job

Thanks bro....waiting patiently for Webmasters and Designers to come forward and give me their opinion on this

Sorry Webmasters, Designers and Developers in the house please help me answer these set of questions....

1) Webmasters who regularly talks about how they will build and host a website for a client for as low as 5K biko how will they do it?

2) Some persons who post request for Web project here and then tells you they have only between 5-7 or even 10k for the job how do they want it done?

3) Lastly as a web designer/ developer what normally constitute your costing for web design job....Any of this or more

a) Cost of domain and hosting? as for the hosting be it local or foreign and the configuration that comes with the hosting ( by this I mean the size, bandwidth and other addon's)

b) Cost of data/power and time to use to do the job which includes time spent making sense of the content received from client, optimizing it and sourcing for/preparing images to be used as most clients don't provide good images for thier jobs.

c) maybe you're building with WordPress so does your costing covers using premium theme in case if you have to of using any if the existing paid premium page builders ?


I need an answer and opinion of real Webmasters and designers/developers in the house because the prevalence of PEPs dropping ridiculous amount or offers to build website for clients here is high and outside reality...

Doers Technologies is in Lagos and can do it for you.

We build WordPress Websites and We also code from Ground up...

prettyboi1989:
trust me they dont, i am talking about something that happened towards the end of August this year. they legit told me to look for third party ddos protection service or i upgrade to dedicated server. Total bs, later found me a host that offer 20ghz ddos protection bandwidth including filters

That's the point...protecting your site from things like that its not entirely your host company affair and no one can prevent or guarantee you a complete protection from things like this....

its two way thing 1) What your host has to offer based on the packages they have

2) And what you yourself have to do to protect your website from such an attack.....a simply search on google will give you hundreds of option and third party services that offers similar services....

prettyboi1989:
same namecheap that doesnt offer ddos protection. just pray your site doesnt get hit with ddos. my site got hit with ddos when hosted with namecheap and the best they could do was shut down my site for over a week till i resolved to move it to another webhost. those Ukrainian pricks are good for nothing

maybe before ...at moment..they offer DDOS protection...

Secondly the Ukrainians you talked about are just VA's that works for Namecheap. Namecheap is an America firm and not Ukrainian

Good points ........http://doerstechnologies.com.ng/blog

Good points by OP....Who you choose to host your site with is as important as the domain of your site and what you do on your site itself to make it rank higher......

This is the reason why i host with namecheap.com and have over 15 Websites currently hosted there and counting, namecheap is my default hosting platform for my Clients because

1) They offer you SSD Accelerated Disk spaces that are RAID protected against possible fault lines

2) You also get unmetered bandwidth with it and with a guaranteed up-time

3) But the most important thing for me is their customer service.... I have learnt a lot just by interfacing with them live from resolving issues that deals with Clients former IT Personal holding up to information's needed for website/host account transfer from one host to another and other sundry issues

They are not ranked Number 1 IN THE WORLD, but to me they're one of the best.

4) Having said the above, alot depends on you to get your website and web pages properly ranked by search engines. You have to do your own part from Onpage SEO + Off Page SEO and of cause Technical SEO you can read here 20 Actionable techniques you can use today to rank higher http://doerstechnologies.com.ng/use-this-20-on-page-seo-actionable-techniques

You can also read here, things you need to do to make sure that your website is indexed properly by search engines

If what you need is just a blog and not a self hosted one, the one that will have either Wordpress or blogger to its name or you just want to use any of the tons of free available blogging platforms like Medium....Then all you need do is just sign up and you're blogging career is up and running.....

But if what you want is a Website for your business/Blog that comes with it or Just a blog but want to be taken seriously not just by yourself, but by search engines alike, then you have to go for Self hosted service By self hosted service i mean, services that cost you money which covers

1) The domain name

2) Hosting

3) And design cost ( Which includes experience of the designer/developer, Power (NEPA/GEN), Data, SEO (I expect he/she will optimize your site for search engine ) and cost of questions and answers/updates that you will sort out with him/her on or before your site job is done )


I always marvel at peps who quote all sort of ridiculous figures here in the name of building a website, my dear building that website/blog for you will cost up to that....and part of that includes

What hosting company and option he/she chooses for you. Be it a local host or a foreign one. personally use foreign host ( namecheap in particular ) for my clients but even if you go for local host like Whogohost/gigalayer etc, they have packages based on different options like space/number of websites(addon domains and co) the space can take and bandwidth etc

And then will he/she use a free/premium theme in building the blog for you also?..........

mrphysics:
Bros CV is for those that publicly announce their application. Do you know that most companies that pay well don't announce vacancies? CV's matter less. I recently got a 6 digit paying Job, and I tell you, no one looked at how neat or organized my CV looked. They were more interested in harnessing my freelancing career, and improving their organization. They care most about what you can do

Exactly bro....just show what you can do and that's settles the rest.....

It's not just about the CV, your experience counts as well. But then it goes above CV, you can stand yourself apart by having your own portfolio website, which grows with you as your career grows.

Find out here http://doerstechnologies.com.ng/10-reasons-why-you-need-a-portfolio-website

You're right....Every business must devise means to make thier presence felt in all medium and get noticed......

1) Don't just be on social media..optimized your Social media presence ( if i come to your FB, TWITTER AND IG Pages) at first glance i should guess what you're offering

2) Let your Social media be 80% value and 20% promotion.....let's say you're into website design and development, what value are you offering to your audience in this regard, what are you telling them to show your expertise and know how?

3) Participate actively in groups/forums that are in your nicer. There're tons of fb groups that you can belong to and offer your expertise by so doing drive traffic not just to your site but your business as well.

4) Blog actively but don't just blog, optimize them for search engine. Before you write that Blog post, find out who have ranked for it and what they did and go for the kill.

5) Claim all your spots on the internet space: from Google my business, to vconnect and all other local listings. Sign up for their free services and let your business name ring across the internet

6) It's not just SM and your Website, what about your locality? do they know you exist? publicize yourself within your locality, let them know you're there...Your next door neighbor might need your services.

7)Of cause if you can, flyers, banners, newspaper adverts/column opt-in, radio shows, events relevant in your niche, free seminars and workshops etc it's countless.

Hope i have added spice to the OP

And you must have a veritable address

Please check in both ( Google and Bing Webmaster Tools) if its still pending.

if so you have check the three things I mentioned in the article that could be the possible cause and fixed them.

Remember that having your site indexed is different from its ranking higher on your site targeted keywords.

Let me do it for you....My number is on the image below

lajuto:
Thanks bro. I will check out namecheap.
I've actually done some background studies in blogging and I know a bit about SEO.

I've tried out a test blog actually but I want to fully delve into blogging now.

Hope I can contact you through WhatsApp.

Yes bro you can.....

My dear, most Nigerians use blogger and i will personally use WordPress. As for the hosting since you're particular about local host, you can go with WhogoHost or gigalayer.

But me i do foreign host and Namecheap in particular.

After you're done creating your blog and start blogging around your niche, making sure it's properly optimized and indexed becomes important. I have earlier today created a thread on 'How to Find Out if Your Website is Indexed by the Search Engine's: You can read that thread here https://www.nairaland.com/4019026/how-find-out-website-listed Or better still read the article itself here: http://doerstechnologies.com.ng/how-to-find-out-if-your-website-listed-search-engines


And if your need professional help in building the blog/site you can give me a ring here 08095966698

(5)Once you're done submitting your Website XML Sitemaps, you will see an option to test/refresh the page, do so and the page will now show website XML sitemaps listed accordingly.

Once this is done you will notice it will show as pending at first, check back later and be sure the status changed from pending to indexed as shown in the previous images we used in the example above.

If the pending persists, then be sure to check out some possible errors which could be one of these


(1) Your website having a noindex tag: This tell’s the search engines that this website is not to be indexed.

(2) Index blocked by robots.txt file: Have set of rules and instructions that search engine robots needs to observer.

(3) Or index blocked by .htaccess file

Of which if you're the developer you should be able to sort out and if your site was built by someone else, you should contact same and have them sort things out.

Submitting your XML Sitemap to Bing ( which also covers yahoo ) is not different from what i have covered so far.

You can read the full article with all the steps clearly outlined plus the pictures as well here: http://doerstechnologies.com.ng/how-to-find-out-if-your-website-listed-search-engines

Please if you have any question feel free and ask

This Article was written by Rutherford Ejimonu SEO Specialist for Doers Technologies

CC Lalasticla,mynd44 show some love, this might help a soul out there.

Now that you have verified your site, the next thing is to generate your website sitemap and submitting to search engine.

For full details on how to create or generate your XML Sitemaps please follow this link http://doerstechnologies.com.ng/how-to-generate-create-xml-sitemap-website

Let’s Continue with the steps on how to submit your Website XML Sitemap


1)Sign into your gmail account: either personal or the one linked to your business website


2)Open another tab in your browser: and type in Google search console and then click on the link. In the example below I wil submit XML Sitemap for a newly created website wismekplanet.com


3)Once inside Google search console you will see the list of your verified/un-verified websites. Click on the one you want to submit its XML sitemap ( eg wismekplanet.com ) and then click on crawl on the left hand side of the window and then on sitemaps


4) Next click on ‘ADD/TEST SITEMAP’: for you to now add your website sitemaps. Depending on what you used in creating/generating your sitemaps, it’s numbers may vary.

Eg if you built your website with CMS like WordPress, it’s most likely that you will use either of Yoast SEO XML Sitemap or Google XML Sitemap plugin in generating your site XML Sitemap the former will generate number of files for your site XML sitemap, covering posts, pages, categories among others while the later will just create one XML file for your site but still captures all there’s to capture.


For those who coded their website from scratch using sublime text or any other Frontend coding tools, its most likely you generated your website sitemap using one of the online XML Sitemaps generator tools or Screaming frog or you’re comfortable and created the sitemap by yourself.

Whatever be the case, all you need do is just to add your XML Sitemap file as generated/created in the search console sitemap tab.

4) Next you will be asked to verify your website using a recommended method of you download a flock HTML document and uploading same to the root folder of your website or through other alternate options.

You can upload this file using your site FTP credentials or go straight to Cpanel, find File Manager>>> Locate your site root folder and upload the flock HTML document.

(5) After this return back to Google search console verification page, click the link to verify the upload and then verify your website.

Now how do you get your website indexed by search engines like Google and Bing?

The first thing you will hear from some quarters when this come up, is to do manual submission, by that we mean submitting your website to the respective search engines.

Although this is right, but is not actually necessary to get your site indexed by search engines like Google as their crawlers, curbs the internet all the time looking for new contents/links/webpages to index and they pick up signals from different sources while doing so.


But then your website stands a better chance of being ranked for it’s targeted keyword, if its first found and indexed by search engines when you


1) Create and optimized your website appropriately, create enough buzz around it and wait quietly for search engine robots to pick up the signal and index your site.


2) Submit your website url through search engine website url submit pages.

The disadvantage with this option though, is that you have to start submitting your webpages url’s one after the other regardless of the number, be it 5 or 100. A better option though, is option ( 3 ) below



3) Create and submit your website XML sitemaps directly to search engines: This is a better option as all you have to do is to create/generate your website XML sitemap which covers all your site pages and in the way the search engine understands it best and then submit same to Google (Through Google search console formerly Google Webmaster tools) and Bing webmaster tools.



How To Submit your Website Sitemap to Google Search Console

The first steps to take before going ahead to submit your various XML Sitemap files to either Google or Bing, is to verify your website. If you haven’t done so, then follow the steps below

We will start off with Google search console (formerly Google Webmaster tools ) and conclude with Bing.

(1) Sing into your Gmail account.

(2) Open another tab on your browser and search for Google search console and click on it.

(3) Once in there, click on “ADD A PROPERTY’ and enter your website url as shown in the image example below and click ‘ADD’ in this example we are using one of our clients website ‘wismekplanet.com’
