WordPress Website on GoDaddy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n<p>Are you tired of depending on specialized technical skills to create your business website? Look no further than WordPress as the answer to your woes. WordPress empowers businesses to easily create a professional website of their own. With its use of plugins, themes, and widgets, this platform offers limitless customization options for savvy web builders. Our guide today focuses on teaching you how to build a WordPress website with GoDaddy, one of the most popular web hosting platforms in existence.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_Choose_Your_GoDaddy_Hosting_Plan\"><\/span>Step 1: Choose Your GoDaddy Hosting Plan<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Starting with selecting the right hosting plan based on your needs is important. GoDaddy offers numerous hosting plans consisting of Shared Hosting, WordPress Hosting, Virtual Private Server (VPS) Hosting, and Dedicated Server Hosting! Don&#8217;t bite more than you can chew, and begin with Shared Hosting if you&#8217;re a beginner. It&#8217;s the simplest plan for set up and maintenance. However, WordPress Hosting offers additional features exclusive to WordPress users. Once you&#8217;ve selected the most suitable plan, move on to the next step.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Purchase_a_Domain_Name\"><\/span>Step 2: Purchase a Domain Name<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Purchasing a domain name precedes building the website itself. You need a memorable, catchy, and relevant domain name for users to access your site. The traditional domain extensions available are .com, .org, and .net. But, you can opt for a unique extension such as .me, .club, or .io depending on your business niche. GoDaddy offers a domain name search feature to check if your desired name is available. If it isn&#8217;t, GoDaddy suggests similar available domain names. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Set_Up_Your_WordPress_Account\"><\/span>Step 3: Set Up Your WordPress Account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After purchasing a domain name and signing up for your hosting plan, install WordPress on your GoDaddy account. To begin, click on the &#8220;Web Hosting&#8221; tab of your account and choose the website you&#8217;d like to install WordPress on. Click on \u201cManage\u201d, proceed to the \u201cInstall Application\u201d icon, and choose WordPress.<\/p>\n<p>GoDaddy will then guide you through the installation process of entering your desired WordPress site title, admin username, and password, once completed, access your WordPress dashboard by navigating to https:\/\/yourdomainname.com\/wp-admin.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Choose_a_WordPress_Theme\"><\/span>Step 4: Choose a WordPress Theme<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Your WordPress theme serves as a template for your website, controlling its visual appearance, layout, and fonts. Thousands of WordPress themes are available for free or paid versions. Check if the theme is mobile-responsive, suited to your business niche, and if it provides customization options. Browse through the themes available in the WordPress theme directory or choose a premium one from ThemeForest. To install, hit \u201cThemes\u201d in your WordPress dashboard\u2019s \u201cAppearance\u201d tab, click \u201cAdd New,\u201d and then \u201cUpload Theme.&#8221; <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Add_Essential_Pages_and_Content\"><\/span>Step 5: Add Essential Pages and Content<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The content on your website is crucial, and it should be user-friendly, engaging, and informative. Use stunning images and videos to supplement your content and make it more eye-catching. Consider installing necessary plugins that help with search engine optimization (SEO), social media sharing, and contact forms, such as Yoast SEO, Contact Form 7, and WPForms.    <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_6_Customize_Your_Site\"><\/span>Step 6: Customize Your Site<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The final but equally important step is customizing your site. Add functionality to the sidebars, footer, and other areas by using widgets. These include features like social media sharing buttons, photo galleries, and more that Plugins offer!<\/p>\n<p>To customize your website using widgets and plugins, go to the &#8220;Appearance&#8221; tab of your WordPress dashboard and choose &#8220;Widgets&#8221; and &#8220;Plugins&#8221; respectively. After adding widgets and plugins, tweak your website&#8217;s visual appearance by editing the theme CSS files, or by using a page builder plugin like Elementor. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>By following these instructions to the letter, you\u2019ll be able to build your WordPress website on GoDaddy with ease. Your website should embody the customer experience, quality content, and be optimized for search engines. Ensure that your website is mobile responsive, secure, and quick to load, plus keep updating and optimizing regularly.
