How to Start a Website in 5 Minutes with WordPress

What is WordPress?

For many, when they think of WordPress, they think “blog.” And while WordPress is one of the world’s largest blogging platforms, WordPress is also a complete content management system and is a great way to build many different types of websites. This article will show you how easy it can be to get your blog, or website, up and running quickly.

Setting up a Website or Blog

Whether you are wanting to learn how to create a blog or setting up a website for the first time, the first steps are always the same but before you can begin, you have to decide how you want to set it up. Most people choose to use either a website builder or content management system (CMS) like WordPress as those are the easiest if you have never started a website before. However, for the more advanced option, you could build a site from scratch, but that requires coding skills.

For the sake of simplicity, we breakdown how to set up a website or blog into easy to follow steps using WordPress. The rest is up to you!

Buy a Domain Name

Choose a Web Hosting Provider & Setting up your hosting account

Install WordPress

Step 1: Buy a Domain Name

If you don’t already have a domain name for your new website or blog then the hardest part is picking a domain name that best suits your business or blog. Once you have decided on a domain name and it’s available for purchase, the next step to buy it!

Step 2: Choosing a Web Host

There are many hosting companies out there, but for a WordPress site, Bluehost should definitely be at the top of anyone’s list. Bluehost is recommended by WordPress for website hosting and has been for more than 10 years.

To set up your hosting account with Bluehost, follow the steps below. It will speed up the process to think of a domain name you want to use and to have your credit card for payment ready to go before you get started.

Set Up Your Hosting Account

To get started, go to Bluehost’s home page and click “Get Started.”

Next, you need to choose a domain name for your site. If you already own a domain name, you can enter it here, and you will just have to go through a few extra steps to make sure you get your DNS pointed to Bluehost. If you don’t already have a domain name, you can purchase one from right in the sign up process, and the best part is, it comes free with your new managed WordPress hosting account purchase.

Once you’ve entered a domain name, you’ll fill in your personal information.

Then, you’ll choose which hosting package you want. Normal, shared hosting is priced at 12, 24 and 36-month terms. To help save you money, the longer term you purchase, the lower the monthly rate will be. For example, by choosing a 36-month hosting term, you can get a great introductory rate of $3.95/month. And, because you’ve chosen to host with Bluehost, if you ever need more than a shared hosting account, Bluehost provides seamless upgrades to VPS or dedicated server hosting accounts from inside your control panel.

There are few other offers provided at sign up, which you can include at your discretion. One we recommend is Domain Privacy, a paid service that allows personal information to be kept private on WHOIS databases.

After you’ve filled in your information and chosen your hosting package, click the “Next” button to complete your purchase. You’ll then be asked to create a password for your account. You can use the Password Generator to create a strong and secure password or create one yourself. It is required to have both capital and lowercase letters, a number, and a special character (?!#, etc.) in order to have a strong enough password to protect your account.

Now that you are all signed up and are able to log into your account, you can get started installing WordPress!

Step 3: Installing WordPress

This may seem like the most complicated step, but Bluehost has worked hard to make this one of the easiest things for you to do by using the new MOJO Marketplace for installing WordPress and other applications. In your cPanel, scroll to the section titled “MOJO Marketplace” and choose the “One-Click Installs” button. This will take you to a page inside MOJO Marketplace called Scripts and Platforms. The blog section is at the very top, so all you have to do here is click on the WordPress icon.

This will open the installation window. Click on the green “Start” button that will start the WordPress installation process, which has a few easy steps.

Step 1: Choose where you want to install WordPress. This can be any domain on your account, or a subdomain or a folder for one of your domains. Next, click on “Check Domain,” which will make sure the domain is assigned and pointing to your account. You may get a warning that you are overwriting files, but as long as you don’t have another website built yet, you can check the box and continue. This is mostly to make sure that you really want to install it in that location. If you do have other sites built, you will want to make sure you’re not overwriting something important.

Check Your Domain

Step 2: Show Advanced Options. This section allows you to set up your own username and password for your WordPress install. IT is recommended to use a different username than “admin” and a very strong password. Make sure that the “Automatically create a new database for this installation” box is checked unless you have a database already set up that you want to use.

Step 3: After you’ve read the terms and conditions, check the box indicating that you’ve done so, then click “Install Now.”

Install WordPress

Now you’ll see the progress page, which will show you how far along the installation is. Once WordPress is fully installed, it will provide you with your site URL, the admin login URL, your username, and password. You will get a copy of this information, except your password, in your email as well. Make sure to keep it in a safe place.

WordPress Install Progress Bar

Now you can log into your WordPress site by going to the admin login URL. Enter your username and password, then click “Log In.” This will take you to your WordPress dashboard.

What’s Next?

Congratulations! You have successfully set up a website in less than 5 minutes. From here, you can design your site using templates and plugins. You can control everything to do with your WordPress site, such as creating pages, writing blog posts, and changing the appearance.

Unless you have just awaken from a 20-year nap, you are aware of blogs… Internet ‘web-logs’. Many of us use blogs to record our ideas and experiences, but a few savvy Internet marketers actually use blogs to generate genuine six-figure incomes.

Perhaps you have read the stories about people who have made a fortune from their blog; some of these entrepreneurs have become millionaires many times over because they seem to know something that we don’t. If you are like me, you have made an effort to monetize your blog with AdSense and some affiliate programs and possibly you’ve had some success. However, earning the ‘big bucks’ has escaped the vast majority of us bloggers.

Rob has only been on this planet for 22 years, but he has figured out what has stumped us old-timers – how to make his blogs throw off six-figures of revenue. If his name rings a bell with you it is because last year Rob authored a best-selling book entitled, “Blogging To The Bank”.

As you know, marketing tactics and promotional methods change hourly on the Internet. It is no surprise that some of the information in Rob’s first book (now one year old) is already dated and doesn’t have the same significance today as when it was first published.

To address this, Rob has just released a sequel entitled “Blogging To The Bank 2.0″, which covers a lot of new information, tips & tricks that can help you make a fortune with your blog.

You’ll really like Rob’s style, he doesn’t consider himself a “guru”, or talk down to those of us who are not overly technical. He has a clear concise style that helps you to understand everything he is teaching. Don’t think this means this is mundane information because he delivers some real bombshells that will require you to read some topics a number of times to really “get it”. When you do . . . you’ll realize this fellow is a genius.

Rob covers everything you’ll need to know to capitalize on today’s changing environment all the while keeping the search engines happy. He covers everything from initial market research to his 5 blogging commandments that if followed, he claims will virtually guarantee success with your blog.
