| 00:00:18 | 00:00:24 | guys what's up i'm christian taylor and |
| 00:00:21 | 00:00:26 | in this new three-week series i'll be |
| 00:00:24 | 00:00:28 | showing you guys how to build a basic |
| 00:00:26 | 00:00:30 | wordpress website now it's not going to |
| 00:00:28 | 00:00:34 | be anything fancy but hopefully this |
| 00:00:30 | 00:00:36 | will be able to help you if you are you |
| 00:00:34 | 00:00:38 | know new to web sites and you're just |
| 00:00:36 | 00:00:40 | wanting to start off this will be a |
| 00:00:38 | 00:00:43 | great tutorial for you so yeah let's dig |
| 00:00:40 | 00:00:44 | right in well we're not going to have |
| 00:00:43 | 00:00:47 | too much hands-on today we're going to |
| 00:00:44 | 00:00:50 | basically be gathering our resources and |
| 00:00:47 | 00:00:52 | all the things we need so the first |
| 00:00:50 | 00:00:57 | thing we need to cover is explaining |
| 00:00:52 | 00:01:00 | domains and hosting so web hosting is a |
| 00:00:57 | 00:01:04 | computer that is basically suited for |
| 00:01:00 | 00:01:06 | websites it's called a server and it |
| 00:01:04 | 00:01:08 | sits in a warehouse somewhere and the |
| 00:01:06 | 00:01:11 | files to your website which in this case |
| 00:01:08 | 00:01:13 | would be the wordpress files are running |
| 00:01:11 | 00:01:17 | off of that so i'm not gonna get into |
| 00:01:13 | 00:01:20 | any fancy complicated terms on how or |
| 00:01:17 | 00:01:23 | why it works all you need to know for |
| 00:01:20 | 00:01:26 | now is that you need web hosting and a |
| 00:01:23 | 00:01:29 | domain now for some reason people |
| 00:01:26 | 00:01:31 | usually tend to get these terms mixed up |
| 00:01:29 | 00:01:35 | thinking if they buy web posting it's |
| 00:01:31 | 00:01:39 | also a domain or vice versa this is not |
| 00:01:35 | 00:01:41 | the case you need hosting and a domain |
| 00:01:39 | 00:01:43 | for this to work so that being said i |
| 00:01:41 | 00:01:46 | would highly recommend our sponsor for |
| 00:01:43 | 00:01:48 | hosting that would be king were hosting |
| 00:01:46 | 00:01:50 | com i'm going to be using them in this |
| 00:01:48 | 00:01:54 | video because they did sponsor the |
| 00:01:50 | 00:01:55 | series i'm very thankful of that also |
| 00:01:54 | 00:01:58 | for domains i would recommend |
| 00:01:55 | 00:02:00 | namecheap.com obviously i did not get |
| 00:01:58 | 00:02:03 | any sort of sponsorship from them but i |
| 00:02:00 | 00:02:06 | would still recommend them i personally |
| 00:02:03 | 00:02:07 | use them and I also personally use |
| 00:02:06 | 00:02:11 | we're hosting because they're definitely |
| 00:02:07 | 00:02:14 | great so now it's time for some hands-on |
| 00:02:11 | 00:02:17 | stuff today we're going to be basically |
| 00:02:14 | 00:02:20 | buying our hosting and I already have |
| 00:02:17 | 00:02:22 | the domain but I'm not going to buy a |
| 00:02:20 | 00:02:25 | new one just for this but I'll show you |
| 00:02:22 | 00:02:28 | guys to what you need to do to connect |
| 00:02:25 | 00:02:30 | the domain with the hosting so next week |
| 00:02:28 | 00:02:32 | we'll be installing WordPress in the |
| 00:02:30 | 00:02:36 | week after we'll be doing some basic |
| 00:02:32 | 00:02:39 | theming of worthless so yeah guys let's |
| 00:02:36 | 00:02:41 | dig write it alright guys so like I |
| 00:02:39 | 00:02:43 | explained we need a domain and web |
| 00:02:41 | 00:02:45 | hosting now I already have a domain |
| 00:02:43 | 00:02:48 | that's sitting out there that I don't |
| 00:02:45 | 00:02:51 | use but i will use that for this series |
| 00:02:48 | 00:02:54 | now it's not a dot-com domain it's a dot |
| 00:02:51 | 00:02:56 | pw domain but that doesn't matter all |
| 00:02:54 | 00:03:01 | that matters is that you have purchased |
| 00:02:56 | 00:03:03 | the domain it can be calm co uk net |
| 00:03:01 | 00:03:05 | whatever you want it to be it will work |
| 00:03:03 | 00:03:07 | so with that being said we're gonna |
| 00:03:05 | 00:03:10 | start with our hosting we're gonna head |
| 00:03:07 | 00:03:11 | on over to i'm already in the billing |
| 00:03:10 | 00:03:16 | section but i'll just show you guys |
| 00:03:11 | 00:03:17 | kingler hosting com web design not web |
| 00:03:16 | 00:03:22 | design sorry I hit the wrong button |
| 00:03:17 | 00:03:24 | hosting but they do do web design so if |
| 00:03:22 | 00:03:26 | you say hey this is too much for me I |
| 00:03:24 | 00:03:30 | just want to let them take care of that |
| 00:03:26 | 00:03:32 | they can also do that for you I'm going |
| 00:03:30 | 00:03:37 | to choose the squire plan because this |
| 00:03:32 | 00:03:45 | fits my needs just fine in order now |
| 00:03:37 | 00:03:50 | and my domain is cts s cloud pw so we'll |
| 00:03:45 | 00:03:52 | just continue there and check out so as |
| 00:03:50 | 00:03:56 | you can see it's two dollars and |
| 00:03:52 | 00:03:59 | ninety-five cents per month in USD |
| 00:03:56 | 00:04:01 | alright guys so I am back I've filled |
| 00:03:59 | 00:04:03 | all my details and you have a |
| 00:04:01 | 00:04:06 | promotional code for a hundred percent |
| 00:04:03 | 00:04:09 | off just for the purpose of making this |
| 00:04:06 | 00:04:13 | video now don't try to use this code you |
| 00:04:09 | 00:04:16 | can trust me it will not work it's just |
| 00:04:13 | 00:04:18 | for this video specifically but as you |
| 00:04:16 | 00:04:21 | can see that brings it down to zero |
| 00:04:18 | 00:04:23 | dollars now if you didn't have that if |
| 00:04:21 | 00:04:25 | you did complete order it would just |
| 00:04:23 | 00:04:28 | redirect you to paypal and how do you |
| 00:04:25 | 00:04:31 | put in your payment information but you |
| 00:04:28 | 00:04:38 | know we're not going to deal with that |
| 00:04:31 | 00:04:40 | so alright guys so I did work out that |
| 00:04:38 | 00:04:42 | glitch and now it is creating the |
| 00:04:40 | 00:04:44 | hosting account it does take a minute |
| 00:04:42 | 00:04:47 | just be patient it is actually creating |
| 00:04:44 | 00:04:50 | our account as we speak automatikally |
| 00:04:47 | 00:04:52 | that's why I love these guys it's just |
| 00:04:50 | 00:04:55 | fast you don't have to wait for anybody |

| 00:05:36 | 00:05:41 | username and password that's very cool |
| 00:05:39 | 00:05:44 | so now we're going to head on over to |
| 00:05:41 | 00:05:48 | our domain I recommend namecheap you can |
| 00:05:44 | 00:05:50 | use whatever you want but I've already |
| 00:05:48 | 00:05:53 | bought it but basically you just buy it |
| 00:05:50 | 00:05:56 | and then you go to your panel and you |
| 00:05:53 | 00:06:01 | click your domain you want in this case |
| 00:05:56 | 00:06:11 | this one and I will say transfer DNS to |
| 00:06:01 | 00:06:14 | web host now for this we're going to go |
| 00:06:11 | 00:06:16 | over here and go ahead and copy these |
| 00:06:14 | 00:06:19 | name servers because this is what we |
| 00:06:16 | 00:06:19 | want |
| 00:06:25 | 00:06:37 | we're going to go ahead and do save all |
| 00:06:35 | 00:06:41 | right guys so it has been updated it may |
| 00:06:37 | 00:06:44 | take a while to um like reflect those |
| 00:06:41 | 00:06:48 | changes let's go ahead and see looks |
| 00:06:44 | 00:06:50 | like not yet but it can take up to 24 |
| 00:06:48 | 00:06:53 | hours for your domain to start working |
| 00:06:50 | 00:06:55 | but now that we have initiated that our |
| 00:06:53 | 00:06:58 | domain in our hosting account are tied |
| 00:06:55 | 00:07:01 | together and this is what we need this |
