In this tutorial, I will show you how to buy and install WordPress on Bluehost step by step.
I will show you which hosting plan you should choose and the actual buying process i will
also show you a secret trick to get bluehost with an extra discount and lastly i will show
you how to install wordpress on bluehost the right way at the end of this video i will give
you a very special offer if you decide to pick up bluehost through my link where i will give
you my six figure blogger course for free as a way of saying thank you now let's get started
step one click on the link in the description or type this into your browser it will take you to my
special bluehost discount page where you will get the best discount bluehost is currently offering
for transparency this is an affiliate link i will receive a small commission while you
get a special discount and my six-figure blogger course for free so it can be a win-win situation
for the both of us and it's just a way for you to support my channel and i really appreciate it
so now let's click on get started here are four bluehost shared hosting plans you can choose from
first of all the difference between their basic and their next three plans is pretty much having
unlimited websites and storage over the one website and a limited storage if you're not
convinced whether bluehost is right for you or you just want a bit more information then you can
watch this bluehost review video that i've made and you can find out how good bluehost really is
in this case i'm just going to select basic if you type in a name here and click next but i'm going
to do it the smart way and purchase my domain name from namecheap if you need help on purchasing your
domain name from namecheap and watch this video here and i'll guide you through that process
so i'm going to use my own domain now type here the domain name you want
now click on next fill out your account information here
now we scroll down to the package information section this is where i'm going to reveal the
secret to you to get an awesome discount so what you do is you hover your mouse up all the way to
the top of the screen like you're going to exit it and now a special sign up offer is presented
to you and you can get it for just 2.65 and this is my method for you to save some money
so now i'm going to click on claim savings and if i come back down you can see now my price is 2.65
and you will need to get it for 36 months and that's fine with me as once you commit with a
hosting provider you should always sign up for as long as you can because the price per month
is cheaper and when it comes to renewal time they always charge extra so if you can get it for three
years go for it you have the 30 day money back guarantee at the start anyway if you don't like
them you can refund at the start now we come down to the package extra and i recommend 100
you don't get any of these because it can be done for free with plugins now you can
see the total price for three years on their basic plan is only 95 dollars
so i think that's an amazing deal in itself now we come down to the payment information we
fill that out now you agree with their terms and click submit and here is your confirmation page
so now once you're on this page we want to click on create your account type in your password
agree to bluehost's policy and click on create account
now go to login
and log in once more
and now this brings you to the bluehost dashboard
now before doing anything further on bluehost we need to connect our domain name from namecheap to
bluehost so i'm going to log into my namecheap account now and once you're on the dashboard
of namecheap then you click on manage of the site that you want to change the name server to
so now we want to come down to the name server section click on custom dns and now you need
to paste this information into the two fields ns1 bluehost.com ns2.bluehost.com and click on
save here now you can see the dns server has been successfully updated it shows here it could take
up to 48 hours but this is never the case maximum it should take is an hour but come back and check
in 5 or 10 minutes now we can go back to our bluehost portal click on my site i know bluehost
normally comes pre-installed with the wordpress website for you but just in case it doesn't i'm
going to delete this and show you how to redo it easily so you click on this click on delete site
so now i'm going to install a fresh wordpress site you click on add site and put your site name in
tagline
and now go to advanced and now we can set up our email address username and password
now for the username i recommend you use anything but the word
admin because this makes it easy for hackers to get into your website
now click next and select the domain you want now for the free plugins i recommend you don't
install any of these as you can always do them later once you need them if you have too many
plugins it can clutter up your website and greatly reduce your speed so we're going to click on next
and there it is it's that easy our website has been installed
that literally took two clicks now we can log into our wordpress website
and we can come to here and click on visit site
and this will show us that our bare bone website is up and running we go back to our home page
of our bluehost so technically our site has now been created to install our certificate from our
home page click on advanced click on ssl slash tls now we select all and click run auto ssl
success you can see here it's been installed
let's refresh that page and our ssl certificate is now ready to go
