You’ve been thinking about starting your own website or building a website for a client but you seem not to understand the process. A lot of people are earning money with website design and you also feel like starting something in this direction. You don’t have to worry yourself anymore because here is the first thing you have to do. In this article I have given a step-by-step guide on how to buy a domain name and web hosting plan for your website using Interserver.
Interserver is a highly recommended web hosting company. They have everything you need to power your website. They also charge just $2.50 for 1 month of service which is very considerate.
Step By Step Guide
Visit Interserver.net and click on the ‘Buy Now’ button on the Home Page as shown in the image below.
Select the first option, ‘Register a new domain’ if you want to buy a new domain name. Then input your desired domain name. A domain name ends with .com, .net, .org, .gov, .com.ng etc
While choosing a domain name, ensure it is a name that can be easily remembered. Also avoid long domain names. This is because the more users can remember your domain name and pronounce it, the more people gets to know about it and eventually visits your website.
Select the second option ‘I already have a domain‘ If you already have a domain name and you just want to buy a hosting plan for it.
Then click on ‘Yes‘ and ‘Continue‘
Input your email address and your desired password.
Then tick the ‘I agree to the terms of service‘ box after reading the terms of service
Check ‘I’m not a robot‘ and click on ‘Create Account and Continue‘
The email you inserted above will display. Ensure you confirm that is it a correct email. Then click on ‘Continue‘
Fill the form by providing your First Name, Last Name, Company, Address, Postal Code and Phone number. Note, if you don’t know your postal code, you can simply search your location’s postal code on google and it will appear. Copy and paste in the box provided.
Then click on ‘Continue‘
Set your billing interval depending on how you want it. I recommend you choose from 1 year and above.
Under Coupon, you will see that ‘TRYINTERSERVER‘ will appear.
If it does not appear, you can simply type ‘TRYINTERSERVER‘ in that Coupon box. With this coupon Interserver will give you a discount.
Under Whois Privacy, you can select yes for a charge of $5 per year. It helps in protecting your contact information from being viewed by the general public.
If viewing your contact details is not a problem for you, then select ‘No’
If you select ‘No‘, this notice will appear “Without whois privacy anyone can look up your contact information. This often results in making phone calls and emails. If you still choose not to purchase whois privacy consider not using your cell phone or home phone number”. Don’t worry about this.
Click on the payment method you intend to use. In this case we are using debit card. If you have a PayPal account and desire to use it, you can click on it and continue.
Input your card details.
If you want the domain name and hosting to be automatically renewed then leave the button ‘on’
Tick the ‘I have read the terms above and I agree’
Then click on ‘Place Order’
After that the money will be deducted from your account and the message in the image below will appear.
You have successfullly bought a domain name and hosting plan.
But that is not all, click on ‘Continue’
This page displays some details about your new domain name and web hosting plan.
But that is not all. You have to verify your contact information.
So, open the email you used during account creation above.
Check for the email with the subject ‘VERIFICATION REQUIRED‘ and click on it
Scroll down and click on this link as shown in the image below.
Then click on ‘VERIFY INFORMATION’ .
That is How to buy a domain name and web hosting on Interserver.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! You have successfully bought yourself a brand new domain name and web hosting plan. Login into your dashboard when the webhosting details are sent to your email.
You can now agree with me that buying a domain name and a hosting plan is quite very easy. Now go ahead and install WordPress into your C-Panel and start designing your website.
