class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Introduction\"><\/span>Introduction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Have you ever wondered what powers over 30% of all websites online? Well, wonder no more because it&#8217;s time to introduce you to WordPress, one of the most popular content management systems (CMS) in the world. What makes WordPress a great choice? Its flexibility, versatility, and functionality, of course! And the good news is that you can start a WordPress website for free. Yes, you read that right! In this article, we will baffle and amaze you with how to start a WordPress website for nothing.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_Choose_a_Domain_Name\"><\/span>Step 1: Choose a Domain Name<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To get started with your website, the first step is to choose a domain name. This name will serve as your website&#8217;s address, and it&#8217;s how people will find your site on the internet. There are a couple of options you can go for here. You can use a free domain name like &#8220;yourwebsite.wordpress.com&#8221; or, if you want to step it up a level, you can purchase a fancy custom domain name like &#8220;yourwebsite.com.&#8221; But if budget is a concern, don&#8217;t worry, WordPress got you!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Choose_a_Hosting_Platform\"><\/span>Step 2: Choose a Hosting Platform<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now that you have a domain name, the next perplexing step is to choose a hosting platform. A hosting platform is where your website files will be stored on the internet. WordPress.com provides free hosting for your website, but there are other hosting platforms like Bluehost, SiteGround, or HostGator that you can choose. These platforms are also kind enough to provide free website builders and website templates, making it super easy to set up and design your website without any coding or design skills.<\/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>Once you have chosen your domain name and hosting platform, it&#8217;s time to set up your WordPress account. What do you need to do this? You only need to sign up for a free WordPress account. How, you ask? By entering your email address, username, and password, WordPress will roll out the red carpet for you. And, as a bonus, WordPress will provide you with a free subdomain name. How cool is that? Get ready to have your own &#8220;yourwebsite.wordpress.com.&#8221;<\/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>By now, you will be feeling quite confused as to how easy this whole thing is. Let&#8217;s continue to baffle you with the next step, choosing a WordPress theme. You don&#8217;t have to worry about designing your website from scratch. WordPress provides free themes that you can use to design your website. And it gets even better because these themes are pre-designed templates that you can customize to suit your website&#8217;s look and feel. You can spend hours reverting back and forth from theme to theme until you find one that suits your business or niche.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Customize_Your_Website\"><\/span>Step 5: Customize Your Website<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You&#8217;re probably thinking by now that this has got to get complicated somehow, but no! It continues to be easy-peasy. Once you&#8217;ve picked a theme, it&#8217;s time to customize your website. You can add pages, blog posts, images, and videos effortlessly. WordPress provides easy-to-use tools for adding content like the WordPress editor that you can use to write and format your blog posts and pages. It&#8217;s that simple!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_6_Add_Plugins\"><\/span>Step 6: Add Plugins<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now that you have created the structure of your website, it&#8217;s time to add some functionality and features with plugins. Think of plugins like apps for your website. WordPress provides thousands of free plugins that you can use to add exciting features to your website, like social media sharing, contact forms, and even SEO optimization. You can easily search for and install the plugins you need from your WordPress dashboard. It&#8217;s almost too easy!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_7_Set_Up_SEO\"><\/span>Step 7: Set Up SEO<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Last but not least, it&#8217;s essential to set up SEO so that your website can rank highly on search engine results pages. But you guessed it, WordPress has got you covered with yet another free plugin called Yoast SEO. This SEO plugin optimizes your website for search engines by using keywords in your content and metadata, ensuring your website is fast, and providing high-quality content.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Starting a WordPress website for free is possible and straightforward.
