Read on to discover how you can strengthen your online presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As an avid user of Hostinger for four years, I can attest to the fantastic services they offer, and I’m not the only one who thinks so. [Link to Trustpilot] Hostinger has quickly risen to become the second-largest web hosting platform worldwide, and that’s no coincidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Image: Chart showing Hostinger’s growth<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n In just a few years, Hostinger has experienced unprecedented growth. They are currently proud to be the second-largest web hosting platform globally. One of the reasons I’m so satisfied is the excellent price-to-quality ratio. Hostinger provides top-quality web hosting at very affordable rates, leading to a rapidly growing number of satisfied users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hostinger understands that every user is unique, so they offer various deals:<\/p>\n\n\n\n All plans guarantee a super-fast website, ample storage, regular backups, and even free email options. And best of all, if your experience isn’t satisfactory for any reason, Hostinger offers a 30-day money-back guarantee. Now that’s service!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Curious about what Hostinger can do for you? Discover the possibilities and enhance your online presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When choosing the duration of your web hosting, you’ll notice that the longer you commit, the higher the discount you receive. Use this link to take advantage of a special offer! One of the great features of Hostinger is the free security for your domain name and personal data after registration. Many other providers charge an additional annual fee for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Image: discount options<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Choosing a domain name is an important step, especially if you want to make it personal. Using your first and last name is a smart move. It not only adds a personal touch but also makes it easier for people to find you online. Whether it\u2019s for a professional website or just for fun, a domain with your name in it can make a great impression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Image: Registering a domain name<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want to register a domain name, there are a few steps to follow. First and foremost, check if your desired domain name is still available. Then, decide if it will be a personal or business website. Once you\u2019ve made that decision, it\u2019s time to fill in your personal details. Step by step, we\u2019ll get there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Next, you have the option to choose a server location. Depending on your target audience, you can select an appropriate location. Last but not least, once that\u2019s all taken care of, the fun part begins: setting up your WordPress website. Before you know it, you\u2019ll be online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Image: Two options<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n After registering your domain name, you\u2019ll have two options. One is to view your brand new website. You\u2019ll get a temporary version that you can start working on right away. But here\u2019s the advice: it\u2019s smart to be patient before unleashing your creativity. It takes about an hour for your domain to be fully available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The other option is ‘Manage Site’, where you can take a sneak peek. But why wait? Well, moving your site from a temporary to a permanent environment doesn\u2019t always go smoothly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once your website is finalized, it\u2019s smart to do an SSL check, which means checking the security of your website. Go to the dashboard ‘Manage Site’ and click on the icon for your website in the address bar. It should indicate that your website is secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For more details, you can go to the ‘Security’ tab on the left side of your screen. There, you\u2019ll find the SSL option. A click on it allows you to check if it\u2019s active. A bit of digital security never hurts, so make sure that green checkmark on SSL gives you peace of mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Image: Green SSL checkmark<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Time to roll up your sleeves and get started with WordPress to design your website. You have two options: either go to ‘Auto Installer’ from your dashboard or navigate to ‘Website’ and then ‘WordPress’ on the left side of your screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once in WordPress, you\u2019ll have the chance to give your website a title. Then, you\u2019ll be asked to choose a username and password. Last but not least, choose the language in which you want to create your digital masterpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Image: Username and Password<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Click on Install, and within an hour, your website will be live. Well done! From your dashboard, you can now access your website. This site requires your personal attention, and I\u2019d like to refer you to my video (Link to how to create a website), where I explain step-by-step how to create a professional website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I can also help you create your own webshop (Link to how to create a webshop). We\u2019ll cover important topics such as automatically calculating shipping costs and taxes. Additionally, we\u2019ll dive into payment options like PayPal, iDEAL, and credit cards. Don\u2019t wait any longer to set up an e-commerce platform that meets all your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If your interest lies more in affiliate marketing, I have the perfect place for you! Click here (Link to how to create an affiliate marketing website) for all the ins and outs on this topic. It\u2019s a world full of opportunities to earn extra income while following your interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Affiliate marketing is like a digital partnership. Here\u2019s how it works: you promote other people’s products or services on your website or social media, and each time someone buys something through your unique affiliate link, you earn a commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s a win-win situation: companies get more customers through your promotion, and you earn money without having a product yourself. It\u2019s all about sharing the love for products you believe in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do you prefer sharing knowledge through a course? I can guide you through these online tutorials (Link to how to create a course website) to build a website where you can share your course offerings with your audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Time to set up your own email account! Go to the Hostinger site, click on ‘Emails’, and then ‘Setup’. Within about 5 minutes, your brand-new email account will be ready to use. It\u2019s a quick and simple step to make your online presence even more professional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Image: Email account<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Here, you\u2019ll be asked for an email address and password. Once you\u2019ve done this, you can select the desired email client. An email client is the software that lets you manage and read emails on your computer, smartphone, or other devices. It allows you to send, receive, sort, and organize emails. There are various options, and it\u2019s just a matter of what you\u2019re used to working with. Possible options include Apple Mail, Outlook, or Gmail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Through “Connect Apps & Devices,” you can automatically configure the desired email client. Personally, I prefer manual configuration. All the necessary information can be found on the Hostinger page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Image: Necessary information<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, it\u2019s also possible to check your email via the internet. Go back to the Hostinger homepage and click on ‘Emails.’ You can then access your email box via the webmail button with your previously created email address and password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A handy tip is to run a test immediately by sending a message from your new account to yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By using settings and then identities, you can professionalize the appearance of your email messages. Adjusting the display name is an example of this. Also, using an email signature is practical and creates a trustworthy image.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Your Name as a Brand Offers Unprecedented Opportunities!
