hello is Alex here from WP Eagle calm
and in this video I'm going to be
showing you how to set up a website on a
co uk domain and it's the WordPress and
basically get a fully functioning
website running in basically no time at
all so let's get started now the first
thing you're gonna need is some web
hosting and a domain name now my
preferred partner in this is a company
called TSO hosts they're based in the UK
I use them for lots lots of websites
they offer fantastic support the hosting
is really fast and it's a great price
I've managed to sort out a discount code
for you with these guys you can get 10%
off I will put the code up on the screen
so that you can go and use that and
basically when you get to TSO hosts this
is what you'll see and you're going to
need to say two things I'd say you're
gonna need your hosting and so if you
look here on the website they've got
hosting and you obviously need web
hosting and basically this is where
you're gonna store your website so you
know all your WordPress files and then
other bits and bobs will all go on your
hosting and it's also where your email
will go if you want to use email what
you're doing now you pretty can be fine
first website you can have two websites
on this and 500 mega space and five gig
of monthly traffic which is probably
plenty if you just start to count these
thing a bit bigger they obviously do
have other packages as well so you're
gonna need to go click this button and
get that audit and I say use this code
that I've sorted for you and you'll get
10% off that okay you're also going to
need to order a domain so if you click
on domain and click register domains you
can do it either way around so just do a
search for the domain you want obviously
you you will want a doc code at UK so
don't search for you know my domain code
at UK and do a lookup and it will take
you through it if it's available you can
easily register it okay so I'll leave
you to go and do that and so yeah come
visit here so host com use this code
sign up for hosting and domain get that
August as once you've got it all set up
and you
details ready to go come back to this
video and we'll get started okay so
hopefully that all went well for you and
you've got your hosting and domain name
set up I'm logged in now to what you see
when you first get a hosting account
with TSM host this is the dashboard so
what we're going to do is we're going to
set up our first website so yeah log in
with the details you've just received
and then you need to click on add new
website in here you need to type in the
domain which you've obviously just
registered and the domain I'm using
today is a domain called boot boutique
code at UK it's gonna be a website about
ladies boots now I recommend you just go
for the Linux package so click Add and
it does its thing it's gonna just set up
that website for us and the website set
up okay so this is the the control panel
you get your website and you can set up
all your bits and bobs in here so as
much earlier you can have email accounts
and things with your website so that
would be you know your name at your
domain name don't code at UK but what we
want to do is get our website set up so
the area that you need to go into is
under application options and click
install applications now what we're
going to install is WordPress so it's
the most popular on there it's the top
one so just click install and leave the
install path just as it is as that slash
and click install application okay that
took a couple of minutes but it's all
done now so WordPress has been
successfully installed so now if we just
click here we can go over to the website
and here we go
WordPress is there so to log into
WordPress you need to go up into the
address bar and type slash WP - admin
and this takes you to the login screen a
now if we go back to our hosting screen
it says we've created a username
password so I'm just going to copy this
username
copy and then paste it into the login
box and then do the same with the
password which is new install paste that
in there too and now once we log in you
do need to change this because otherwise
you'll get disabled for security reasons
so we're gonna do that first but this is
logging into WordPress and I'll get rid
of that message and there's some more
messages here which you can have a look
around but I'm just going to dismiss
them so so the first thing needs to be
changed up there and password so let's
go to users and then all users and click
on the username unfortunately you can't
change user name so you will have to
remember that but you do need to change
passwords to scroll down towards bottom
and you've seen your password and then
just enter a password
okay so that's done and we're ready to
get started on setting up our website so
let's have a look at the website so if
you click up here you can see there's a
link to visit site and this will take us
to the front and basically there's
obviously not much on here at the moment
it's using one of the default themes
that comes with WordPress so what we
need to do is add a few pages and get it
looking like a real website so we looked
into WordPress so to access the back of
WordPress you go up to the top left here
and click on dashboard and we're back
here again and we can start playing
around now I recommend that we change
the theme because that theme that's
activated after the installation is
probably more designed for a magazine or
a photographer or something like that
whereas something like the 2012 theme
here is a little bit you know planar and
I think suitable for lots of things
however you'll probably want to install
a premium theme at one point but you
know this is a great place to get
started so let's activate 2012 and
that's done so now if we go back and
visit the site again as you can see it's
changed and it's ready to go so let's
just create a few pages and gives us the
WordPress website a name and yeah let's
start there so let's go to the dashboard
the first we're going to do is set the
name of site so all these things you'll
find within settings and then general so
let's call that it's called boot
boutique so let's do that right I'll
give it a strap line ladies boots now
the installation installs it without the
www you I like my websites to have a www
so I'm gonna add that in there
it's obviously entirely up to you but I
think it's just nicer okay and here is
where you're gonna get emails use pretty
much just as to where the kind of
notifications from WordPress come from
so anything happens on the website and
it'll send you an email so you know
obviously put that to whatever you want
it to be and then pretty much that's
doing settings you need to change in
here just
you'll see all your time zones and
everything okay I think that's wrong for
me because I'm in London so let's see if
we can find London there we go yeah it's
a good idea to make sure that's correct
okay it's because I've changed to that
double w it's I think I'd obviously I
did change the password so let me put my
new password in which was oh and that
username which I've already forgotten
digi D I'm just gonna copy that again so
log back in okay okay and you can see
now the site is on www so that's great
so let's start by creating a few pages
so a great place to look for pages is
under the pages section here on the on
the left so and we're gonna click add
new and what I'm going to do is create
an about Us page and that's where you
put the title on the page in and then
here is where you start to enter the
copy and things for your your page so
you know you can just start typing I'm
not going to write too much that sells
boots and it's pretty similar to word in
here you know you can add some bold text
if you click this button here you get a
few more options so you can like add
headers like that and this is the body
text then that gives you an idea and
then you know if I wanted to add an
image I can click Add media and then you
can upload a file from your computer
let's see if I've got an image to hand
so
here's a nice big irrelevant picture
it's not a picture of a boot but it's a
picture now nevertheless it's one of my
video thumbnails and just click insert
into page and you can see that's done so
if we click publish that's going to
create our new page and then what I'm
gonna do is just create a couple more
obviously we're gonna need a home page
so I'll just call that one home page and
again this is the home page I'm gonna
click publish and then one more page
just for me open let's do a Contact Us
page these cool as these numbers and
then click publish okay so now if we go
over and have a look at the website or
view this page let's go back to the home
page you can see that these pages are
here um we've got two lamp agent moment
but we're gonna fix that in a second
we've got two about as pages so okay
let's change this one it so this is the
page I just created this about here is a
example page so let's just change this
to our services so when you logged in
you can actually edit any page you want
by using the toolbar up here so I can
click edit page and let's change this to
our services
or even better a price because we're
boots armenian hand products or even
better
our boots then i'm going to change the
permalink which is basically the website
address or the URL so let's make it our
boots so it's nice and consistent okay
okay now down here you've got a few
different templates so which we'll go
into in a second so let's just click on
update so now if we view this page at
the moment it's got these widgets down
the right-hand side so this is a great
place to put different bits of
information you could have you know your
MailChimp capture form or you could have
some you know banners whatever you
wanted
so some look at how we manage these so
we'll go back into the dashboard and
under appearance in widgets you'll find
what are called sidebars so basically
anything that's down the side of a page
is called a sidebar and you can have
different sidebars for different pages
at the moment there's just this main
sidebar so as we just saw that was a
search and it's showing the recent posts
and recent comments so we want to remove
or changing these you can just click
them you know if you don't want recent
comments if we don't want archives movie
want to add some text we can come over
here and you see there's a text widget
you can drag that up there and this is
gonna add it as I said to the side of
all the pages on the website let's just
have a little thing that says please buy
boots they are really great then click
Save
then if we go back to the front of the
website there it is you see and that
will be on every page which has the
sidebar now going back to these
templates which I've just mentioned a
minute or so ago if you edit a page and
decide that you don't want those widgets
down the side you think this is where
the template comes and you can come down
and there is a full width page template
with no sidebar so if you select that
and click update and then we view the
page you see it's now just widened and
they've gone okay so let's create our
home page so the home page I created is
this one here at the moment when
WordPress comes just after spin install
it just shows your latest blog posts on
the front which are fine but normally
you'd probably want you know static home
page with your own information so let's
go to the home page that I created if we
edit this page what we need to do is set
the template as the home page template
now this will vary depending on the
theme you using but of C we're using
default theme 2012 and this comes with a
front page template so I'm going to set
that and then if we view the page you
can see that it's it's got rid of the
sidebar and it's it's really just a nice
clean page to add add what we want to
but the problem is it's not actually the
home page because this is still set at
same page so we just need to make one
more change so let's go back to the
dashboard and then if we go into
settings and go to reading here we can
set what's displayed on the front page
so we want us a static page and then
we're gonna select home page and then
click Save and now if we go back and
view it's now set as the home page okay
so now we've set the home page up and
it's using the home page template we can
go back into those widgets and we can
actually add some widgets to the home
page so that makes it easier so as well
as this this content here so the way we
do that I've clicked edit page but
actually we need to go into
I've hearing some widgets again and you
see these side bars here you got the
first front page widget area and you've
got the second so again we could add
some text excellent boots so that's one
widget and we could add some other
widgets to go with it so we could add
maybe the recent posts and over here we
could add at the links basically you
could add whatever you want it and the
more plugins and things that you add to
WordPress the more widgets and
functionality yet so let's just save all
those and see what the website looks
like now there we go so we've still got
our copy at the top of then you get a
left-to-right area that you can add you
know your excellent
buuut posts or all you know your blog
posts whatever you want to add okay so
you know here we are we've got a very
basic website and obviously needs to add
we need to add a bit more content which
is obviously entirely down to you your
website is for you and you need to you
know add your own images and text but
hopefully that's given you a kind of
idea on how you can get a website
running really quickly and a blank
canvas that you can then work on one
thing we do need to do is if you see
this menu I was like the contact has to
be at the the end of the menu so I'll
just show you how you can you can change
these these links on the menu if you go
back into the dashboard down here under
appearance you'll find menus okay so
here are the menus and what we need to
do is create a new menu so obviously we
want the homepage first and we'll call
it home rather than homepage and we I
want the about our boots there and
there's two homos links so we don't need
both of them let's remove one um that's
fine in fact let's have our about us
there so this is gonna be our menu let's
click create menu okay that's it created
and then we need to manage where that's
going to go to click manage locations
there's only one menu on this theme some
things have more than one
it's called menu one our first one to
select that and click Save now if we
have a look at the website that's the
menu we've got I hope that was useful
and obviously there's a lot more you can
do with WordPress this was just a very
quick tutorial to show you how to get
our website running on a doc code at UK
domain I hope it all went smoothly and
you've got a website a WordPress website

you've got any questions or comments I'd
