In the realities of the modern Internet, websites can become not only a means of satisfying the need for creativity, increasing self-esteem or communicating one's views and beliefs to a wide range of people, but also a good source of income. Contextual advertising systems, teaser networks and private advertisers compete for the attention and loyalty of webmasters, wanting to get places on their sites. Learning this, many people think about the question of how to create a website quickly and easily.
Necessary
- - browser;
- - Internet connection;
- - accounts in electronic payment systems or a plastic card with a small amount on the account.
Instructions
Step 1
Purchase hosting services. Use the hosting services catalog https://hostobzor.ru for listing suitable hosting plans. Browse the sites of service providers and pick one. Make sure that the hoster accepts payment in a way that is convenient for you (electronic money, plastic cards, etc.). Register an account on the hosting provider's website. Order and pay for services. Get data to access the server and various services (FTP, SSH, web panel, etc.)
Step 2
Register a domain for the site. Choose a domain registration service. There is no authoritative and well-known directory of providers of this type of service. However, regarding the choice of a registrar, you can consult with members of the Russian-speaking community of webmasters on specialized resources such as domenforum.net or forum.searcengines.ru.
Step 3
You can register a domain both directly on the registrar's website and on the websites of its partners (resellers). As a rule, it is much more profitable to register with a reseller, since the price of a domain here can be several times lower. For example, the service https://registerme.ru, which is a partner of an accredited registrar https://r01.ru, offers domains in.ru and.рф zones at prices more than five times lower than the registrar does. At the same time, the domain is technically maintained by the registrar, and the partner only attracts and advises clients
Step 4
After choosing a service, register an account on it and select a domain name. Use a whois service to check if a domain is free. Top up your account in a convenient way and pay for the registration of the selected domain.
Step 5
Link the domain to the hosting. Add the domain to your hosting account control panel. Find out the addresses of the DNS servers that will serve the added domain. This information can be displayed immediately after adding a domain to the panel. It may also be available on the hosting provider's website. Delegate your registered domain with your hosting provider's DNS servers. Log in to the domain registration service panel. Set your site's domain to a list of hosting provider's DNS servers.
Step 6
Choose a CMS for your site. Determine what type of resource the site will be. If it is going to be a blog, then it makes sense to choose WordPress (https://wordpress.org) or Drupal (https://drupal.org). MediaWiki (https://www.mediawiki.org). Forums can be created based on the paid software Invision Power Board, vBulletin or free SMF (https://simplemachines.org). Mixed resources (portals, news sites, services) can also be built on top of Drupal due to its extensibility and flexibility. Download the distributions of the selected software to your computer
Step 7
Install the CMS of the main site and, if necessary, the forum for hosting. It makes sense to do this after the end of the domain delegation process. But if the domain has not been delegated yet, just write down the hosting provider's server address in the hosts file.
Step 8
Configure the content management system, configure the forum engine and other scripts. Create site and forum sections. Create user groups. Install suitable skins.
