If you are going to start a new blog then you came to the right place because most newbies make mistakes to choose the right platform for her blog.

#1 The necessity of Domain name & How you choose the right domain name

In the Blogging journey basically two platforms are popular that is WordPress & Blogger. If you are really dedicated to starting a new blog then I prefer you start your journey with WordPress.

In the starting you require to invest some money but that will recover if you are do blogging seriously. If you don’t feel secure then you may use the free blogging platform blogger.com.

But it has some demerits and you don’t customize the blog according to your need.

So Buy the Cheap Web Hosting with 30 days 100% money-back guarantee.

• Hostinger ( I use Personally )
• A2Hosting ( Little bit High Cost )

If you want the best hosting and your budget is low then I prefer to buy hosting from Hostinger.

WordPress is the best free cms and you can customize your blog according to your need. If you see most of the blogger uses WordPress because it is free and easy to customize because of plugins.

Now you think WordPress is free why?

WordPress has two platforms 1.Wordpress.org & 2.Wordpress.com. You can download WordPress software from wordpress.org and use it for free but if you go with WordPress.com then you need to pay to use all features of WordPress.

WordPress.Org creates a free platform where people use all service of Wp but you will need to pay for plugin features or additional features. In WordPress, if you want customer support or update from theme company then you need to pay for that.

“WordPress is Free to Use but the Most Featured plugin, themes are Paid”

Why a Domain Name & How to Choose the Perfect Domain Name

Most of the newbie bloggers choose the wrong domain name for their blog and start their blogging journey. When you choose the wrong domain then you don’t change your domain name, because it affects your search ranking as well as traffic.

That’s why a Perfect Domain Name Selection is required…..

When you go for searching a good domain then you feel it quite difficult, yes i agree but you will search a good domain name with some easy steps follow the steps.

To Get a Right Domain Name for Your Bog Follow below Steps –

#STEP – 1

#2 Choose The Best Hosting For Your Site

Now you selected a domain name for your blog. Now a question surrounds in your mind how i add content to my website or list on google.

Don’t worry the all query answer is available in this post.

Your first question how I add content to my blog for this you have required to connect your blog/website into a host.

What is Host?

Every website or blog has a host or hosting. You can say hosting is the space where a website stores all data. When some user ping that domain the data will ping from the hosting server and display to the user.

Now you underestand the real need of a website hosting. I prefer if you are starting a blog or website then buy a hosting becuase it boost up your website performance as well ranking.

IF you are new in blogging then I prefer your start your journey with shared web hosting.

How to Choose Which Hosting Perfect For your Website or Blog?

Web Hostings are divided according to user requirement –

• Dedicated Hosting
• VPS Hosting
• Shared Hosting

Dedicated Hosting Means your website will host on the whole server, it means you pay for a dedicated server. No other websites are availabe on that server only your website is available on that.

VPS ( Virtual Private Server ) Hosting means you will configure the server according to your need you will root your server or install any os according to your need and share with others. It Handels 1000-1000 Visitors a Day.

Shared Hosting is the best hosting for beginners because any beginners can afford this type of hosting. The above two hostings are costlier and a beginner cannot afford it. You can buy a Shared Hosting in $0.99 – $3 for a Month from Hostinger. If you have some high budget then go for A2hosting. It Handels 100-500 Visitors a day.

I think now you understand which hosting is right for you. If you buy a premium plan of any hosting then you get a free domain for 1 year.

Now watch the below video how you point your domain to hosting, if your domain and hosting provider same then you skip this step.

I think you understand how you do if don’t then follow steps –

1. Open Hostinger Dashboard
2. Now Click on Hosting available on the menu.
3. You see “+Add Website” click it.
4. Now you put your domain name and password.
5. Open your domain registrar and change the DNS of that domain which was provided by your host.
6. Wait for 24 hrs your domain will point automatically.

Why I Choose Hostinger For My Site?

When i start my blogging journey i saw so many hosting providers are there but every providers the hosting price is high but only Hostinger gives a Cheap Web Hosting.

My second reason to choose hostinger is I already used this provider when it gives free hosting to users. From that time I saw the efficiency of hostinger servers. I already see their features like free SSL , Free hostinger CDN or more.

Some Key Features Of Hostinger

1.Better Service in Low Price – If you check the pricing of Hostinger plans then there is a big difference from other proviers.
