Hey guys, Bryan with WP Cupid Blog, and today I'm going to be going over how to buy hosting
from iPage step by step from start to finish.
I'll also be providing you with an iPage web hosting discount that will get you up to 75%
off iPage hosting plus a free domain name.
Let's get started with the iPage web hosting tutorial.
The first thing you want to do to buy hosting from iPage is to click the link in the description
below so you can be taken to iPage and so you can take advantage of getting up to 75%
off plus a free domain name.
A little disclosure.
The link is an affiliate link, meaning I'll receive a commission from iPage at no extra
cost to you.
Plus you'll get an awesome iPage discount.
Once you click the link in the description below you'll be on the iPage home page.
Click the get started button.
You'll now be on the domain page where you can choose a free domain name.
You'll see over to the right under your cart section the save 75%.
You'll see 3 years being selected.
Click this and you can also choose a 2-year term or a 1-year term.
You'll get the greatest discount with the 3-year term.
You'll get iPage hosting for $1.99 a month.
If you go with the two-year term you'll get hosting for $2.49 a month.
If you choose the one-year term you'll get iPage web hosting for $2.99 a month.
Choose a term you'd like to go with.
For this tutorial, I'm going to choose the 12-month term.
Now let's choose a free domain name.
If you already have a domain name you can just enter it in the search field to continue
with the domain you already have registered somewhere else.
Once you type in a domain name that you want for free you'll be on a page saying if it
is available or not.
Under the domain section, you'll see add domain privacy + protection being selected.
This is an extra add-on that is completely optional.
I highly recommend going with the domain privacy as this will protect your personal information
from the public and can protect you from getting lots of spam and telemarketers reaching out
to you via email and phone to sell you their services.
When a domain name is registered it is required regardless of the company you go with that
your personal information be included in the public whois database.
By choosing domain privacy + protection instead of your information showing it'll show iPage's
information protecting you.
Over to the right under the your cart section you will now see the free domain name showing
and the domain privacy + protection if you decide to choose this.
Click the continue to add-ons button.
We will now be on the iPage add-ons page where you can select any add-ons you'd like to go
with.
All of these add-ons are completely optional and you can even add these at a later time
in the iPage dashboard.
You'll get a cheaper price for them now if you get them when you initially buy your iPage
web hosting.
So just something to keep in mind.
The first add-on is website backup and restore.
This can be a good add-on to have as it'll back up your site daily so that if you mess
something up by accident or your site gets hacked or anything takes place you can simply
restore your site with a click of a button from the previous backup or a backup of your
choosing.
You'll notice this add-on is added to the cart by default.
You can Click the x button if you don't want to include this add-on.
The next add-on is Sitelock.
Sitelock protects your site from malicious attacks and hackers and from getting malware
on your site.
You'll receive daily malware scans, blacklist monitoring which ensures your site doesn't
get blacklisted by the search engines if your site does have a virus, it'll block automated
bot attacks, and includes automatic malware removal.
If you are going to be using WordPress to build your website there are a lot of free
security plugins that work just fine for protecting your site.
So just something to keep in mind.
Sitelock can be good as it'll protect your site and if something does happen where it
gets hacked you won't be left trying to fix and find the malware.
You'll notice this add-on is added by default.
You can click the x button and remove this add-on if you don't want it.
The next add-on is Google Workspace.
With this add-on, you'll get access to an email address ending in the domain name that
you went with.
Along with that, you'll also get access to their storage, calendars, video meetings,
and more business solutions.
Google Workspace runs as low as $6 a month.
Your iPage hosting account will come with a free email address ending in your domain
name so unless you really want the Google Workspace features I don't recommend this
add-on.
Next, click the continue to billing button over on the right.
You'll now be on the billing and payment information page.
You want to enter your billing information.
And then enter your payment information.
You can also make a payment via Paypal if you'd prefer.
Click the buy now button.
You have now successfully purchased iPage web hosting.
iPage will now email you your receipt along with login details so you can log in to the
iPage dashboard and you can continue creating your site.
That is my iPage web hosting tutorial on how to buy hosting from iPage.
