I am Ansari Mohsin and in this article we are going to talk about what things you will need to start a website. In all the articles we have had so far, I have been saying a lot that you need a website. Without a website, it can be very difficult for you to prove your digital marketing skills and a website is what people expect these days.
Be it a brand or a service provider. From this Article to the next few articles, we will actually understand technically how a website is made. And in this article, I want to give you an overview of what are the major components for a website that you should know and which will be useful for you in the future.
Domain | Website
So the first thing you need is a domain name for your website. Now what is a domain name? If you have seen any website, you know about any website. For example Amazon.com, www.com. In this, Amazon is there, the domain name is .com. Similar to this extension. If I tell you more technically about the domain, the domain is an online one. We have an organization called ICANN Right. ICANN books domain names for people and for a limited amount of time.
When we start building our website. First of all, So when we start taking the domain name, at that time we will purchase our domain name for one year for our website. Because there is no other agency in the world that can allot domain names. All the domain names are allotted within ICANN only. Whether you are a beginner or you are the owner of Facebook or you are Bill Gates. You are the richest man in the world. If you want to book a domain name, then everyone will have to go through this. Ok, the next thing you need is. Now you have booked the name for your website. Next
Hosting | Website
You need to give a space to that name, that whatever content will be there on your website, it will take some space, storage, memory. Like we have storage in our phones. GB right. Similarly, the files of your website will also need storage and at the same time you need such hosting, you need such a server which should be live 24 hours, that is, anytime in 24 hours, if any person enters your domain name in his browser, then your website should open.
This should not happen. Like a local shop, your website does not work after 10:00 pm. Will it be funny right? You yourself know that when you open any website, that website can open at any time. Right. So the next thing you need is hosting. So what is hosting? Storage for website content, accessible or domain name. The same thing that I also explained to you, domain name and hosting are two basic minimum things without which your website cannot be made.
To access the website, first of all a domain name is needed, by which name your website can be opened. On the Internet, right on the World Wide Web, and that domain name has to be linked with a server where we would have taken a space for you, where inside that hosting account, inside that server, we will take a small space for you where all the files related to your domain name will be saved. Our website will be made by combining these two.
After that, when we have space, then we will start producing more on it and add all the other things which we will see in detail in the upcoming articles. How can you actually develop it yourself in the real world. How can you link all these things with each other yourself. You are excited for all this information.
Professional email
The next thing I have written here. When you create a website with this professional email, you must have noticed yourself that all the brands like Amazon are sending you order confirmation mail. If you order something online, then that email comes from no reply at the rate dot com. If you want to recharge customer support in any company, you know, then their email is support at the rate. website name .com, it comes in this way.
So in the same way, because now you are going to create your own website and as a professional entity, as a corporate entity, you can come to the website if you want, right. So that’s why you should also have professional emails and that email will end with your domain name. Right here also you can create admin at the rate hadiya.in or you can start with your name mohsinhadiya.in. Right, having a professional email is also very important.
Build our website
Now the next thing is that now our three technical things are set up, right. Now next we have to build our website. You must be thinking whether you will have to learn coding to build it because you are probably not technical, so how will you do coding? But you actually don’t need to panic because now we will deploy the content management system on your server and then through those content management systems you can develop your website without coding and these are the things we are going to see. In the upcoming articles,
the most famous content management system in the world at this time is WordPress content management system for building site without code. And I am going to tell you about the WordPress we are going to use in the upcoming article and I will give you proof that it is the most popular content management system in the world. Right. When we have a content management system. We have a platform, on the basis of which we have to set up the content of our website, its SEO, email, marketing, everything.
Page builder
Now we also have to design our website well and to customize the design as per your wish, you will need a page builder, so what is the use of that page builder? This is for building custom page building theme. The theme of the entire website can be created through this. Building, custom, custom header, popup extra and all these things I am going to explain to you one by one in detail. How can you design your entire website in a particular specific article? All right. And the tool we will use is called Elementor in the upcoming article.
