How to Build a Website

So you want to build a website? You’ve come to the right place!

At Certified Hosting we understand that for those just starting out, designing a website can be a
frustrating and overwhelming experience.
Especially if you don’t have a degree in web site design or can’t afford a website designer.

Well, it looks more difficult than it actually is! This is why we’ve created this step by step video to
make creating your new website as easy and painless as possible.

Follow along as we take you through the process of creating a professional looking website in just 5 easy
steps.

Step 1
Choose a Great Domain Name.

Having a domain brings instant creditability to your business or anything you choose to register. Having a
searchable domain name makes it easy for people to find you. You will want to choose a name that represents
your company or personal interests.

Choosing a domain name isn’t always easy. But once you’ve finally decided, you can get a FREE domain name
for life by hosting your website with Certified Hosting!


Step 2
Choose a Hosting Plan.

We try to make this as easy as possible. All of our hosting plans include UNLIMITED space and UNLIMITED
bandwidth. We take the guess work of out of trying to figure out how much space your website and files will
require and if you will have enough bandwidth to support the multitude of visitors you will soon have. In the
video we chose our most popular hosting plan, the Nerd Plan.

With the NERD hosting plan you can host unlimited websites, plus get a dedicated IP address AND a free SSL
certificate!

What are a dedicated IP address and an SSL Certificate? A dedicated IP address is an internet address that
is assigned to only your domain names. It is not shared with any other hosting accounts.

A dedicated IP address is also required when using an SSL Certificate. If you plan to offer products or
services online and want to accept payments, then an SSL Certificated is an absolute must to ensure the
security and safety of personal and critical information being transmitted over the internet.

To get started simply choose the plan that’s best for you. Then click ORDER NOW on our website and enter the
domain name you have chosen.

Step 3
Check Your Email!

By now you should have an email from Certified Hosting with all the information you need to login and start
creating your website!


Step 4
Login to cPanel

Go ahead and enter the username and password we have provided you. Once inside you will want to scroll down
to a section labeled "software" and click the RVSiteBuilder icon. From there you will be able to look through
400+ professional looking templates organized into different categories.

You can create a drop dead gorgeous website using our Site Builder in about 5 minutes!

Of course you’ll want to take a little more time to add all your text and images. But your basic site can
be up and running in just a few minutes.

Perhaps you would like to have a blog or a store? No problem! We have what you need just a click away.
Stay in the Software’s section but this time click on the Softaculous Icon. Once inside Softaculous you will
have access to hundreds of the most popular software scripts used on the internet today.

The best part about Softaculous is that it only takes 1 click to install the software.

Seriously, you can have an eCommerce store, a blog, a “youtube” style site and much more all with just 1
click!

In the video we chose the Nerd plan, which comes with a dedicated IP address and Free SSL Certificate.
You’ll want to chose the Nerd package if you plan to sell your products securely online.


Step 5
See Your Website LIVE Online!

By now you’ve created your website using our Site Builder or 1-click installation software. Great job! It’s
now time to see what you’ve created.

Simply type in your domain name into the address bar and have a look at your new website!

YOU are now on ONLINE! On the INTERNET! On the WORLD WIDE WEB!
