Having defined what WordPress is, below is a small list of some of its advantages.
1. It is very easy to grow your site/business with WordPress
Having too many plugins and themes is never enough. With WordPress being open source, developers always introduce new plugins almost everyday which is very helpful for the business.
2. WordPress is great for SEO (Search Engine Optimization)
WordPress is out of the box optimized for SEO. It is the way it is built. If you want to learn more about SEO, check out this article.
3. It is very easy to learn and manage
As an open-source software, WordPress can be used by anyone. Sure, there are plenty of things to learn about WordPress, but any person could play around with the dashboard for ten minutes and start to absorb how the interface works. It is super easy and it requires zero coding knowledge.
Hostinger WordPress Hosting
To build your website, Hostinger provides different plans . Our plan is involved in building you website
on a shared hosting.
As a beginner, I believe you will have only a blog. So the single shared hosting plan they offer is great for you. It is 0.99$ for a website when you access it from here!
Requirements to Setup your blog
You need nothing! You can use your own domain if you have any. Else you can buy the domain through your account. Just sign up and let's get started.
Hostinger WordPress Hosting Tutorial
Let's go through a step by step guide on how to start your blog on Hostinger.
Starting your Blog
Once you have created your account and bought your plan, it is time to start building your blog. Hostinger has made it super easy!
I will go with the option “Use an Existing Domain” as I already have a domain name. You can go with the “Buy Domain” option which is easier, and your domain would be hosted by Hostiger.
If you you want to buy your domain from godaddy check out the below 3 minute video.
We do recommend to get a .com domain that reflects your business, and if you already have one, as I think so, you can just skip this, and continue to get a VPS Server.
Select Build a New Website and select WordPress from the available platforms. Note that they have their own Zyro builder that can help you build your website for minutes. But we will stick with WordPress for now.
Layout
Choose
your layout of the website. Don't worry you can always change that
later in case you do not like it. You can also get your own theme from a Themes and install it on your own blog. It is up to you. a Themes is a wonderful wordpress themes website containing many free and paid themes.
I will show you how to do this on Godaddy.
NameServer Change on Godaddy
Log in to your GoDaddy Domain Control Center.
Select your domain to access the Domain Settings page.
Under Additional Settings, select Manage DNS.
In the Nameservers section, select Change.
Choose Enter my own nameservers (advanced): Enter the nameservers given to you by your hosting provider.
You will add your hostinger nameservers as per below. Note that change takes up to 24 hours to take place.
And that's it! Your WordPress website is created!
Now let's take a quick tour inside hostinger.
SSL Setup
This will be your home dashboard.
First start by activating you SSL certificate. For those of you who do not know about SSL, it is used to secure credit card transactions, data transfer and logins, and more recently is becoming the norm when securing browsing of social media sites. It indicates that your site is end to end encrypted, thus it assures your readers that your blog is clean.
Just press on setup. Then this page will pop up, choose your website and press install SSL.
And that is it. Literally! You now have your website secured with SSL certificate!
Hostinger Cpanel
The Cpanel, or what Hostinger calls it hpanel, contains many interesting features.
You can have subdomains, mail addresses, file manager and many others such a normal cpanel is. But our main concern here, is the wordpress part.
As you can see, in Hostinger, you can add your plugins from here, or normally through the wordpress site.
Now let's access the dashboard.
In the dashboard, you can see all setting of your website.
You can for https, check your database, and edit your website to directly go to the wordpress admin page.
