As mentioned in an earlier post, I have realised that there are a number of people who would like an absolute beginners (aka dummies guide) to buying a domain and getting and publishing a web site. A guide that does not assume that you already have a level of technical knowledge and understanding.
I am going to cover the following :
- What is a domain name?
- What is web hosting?
- How to choose a domain name.
- How to choose a web hosting package
- How to buy a domain name and web hosting online
- Basic understanding of web hosting Control Panel
- How to set up a FTP account
- How to set up email accounts
- How to install WordPress
- How to install Joomla
- Web Design software
- How to building a basic web site
- How to publish a web site to the internet
- How to add web analytics to your web site
After I have completed the above topics I will look to add other informative “How to” guides. If you have a particular topic you would like me to cover, please e-mail me simon@digitalark.co.uk.
