How to Start a Blog from Scratch! (5 SUPER Easy Steps)

Today I am going to show you how to start a blog from scratch. And you won’t believe how easy it is to do.

So, let’s start your blogging journey!

We will need 4 things:

  • domain – Domain is the name of the blog which you type in the browser address bar. “www.HostingPill.com”  is the domain of this site.
  • hosting – Hosting is the “home” of your blog where it will “stay”. It is usually a server at a web hosting company.
  • WordPress – WordPress is the “software” that will power your new blog.
  • Design & Themes – To make your blog attractive design-wise you will need to install WordPress themes.

Koyi game da nau'ikan yanar gizo zaku iya ƙirƙirar tare da WordPress kuma ku san yadda zaku iya protect the blog da zarar ya tashi.

Akwai hanyoyi guda biyu da zaku iya siyan yanki da kuma tallatawa:

  1. Kuna siyan yanki da kuma tallatawa daga mai masaukin yanar gizo guda
  2. Ko kuma ku sayi duka biyu daban

If you ask me, I would recommend going for Option 2 (buying separately) for two reasons:

  1. Kuna samun mafi kyawun ma'amala lokacin da kuke siyan yanki da kuma tallata daban.
  2. Kuna rage haɗarin ta hanyar siyan ta daga kamfanoni daban.

ina bada shawara Namecheap don samun yankinku da Bluehost don tallata yanar gizo.

In this step by step guide, I’m going to buy a domain, set up web hosting, install WordPress, configure WordPress and then talk about how you can make money blogging.

shigar Plugins

Mecece plugin?

Plugins – as the name suggests are tools that add functionality to your WordPress blog.  The best thing which I like about WordPress is – these plugins.

Plugins can turn your site from a simple blog to a fully-featured e-commerce store, a user forum, a video streaming site, a member’s only site, and much more. Of course, you can combine most of these plugins together to add huge functionality to your blog.

Misali, idan kana amfani da shafinka na WordPress don sayar da samfuran kan layi yana iya zama da amfani don ƙara dandalin tallafi.

Duk lokacin da kake son ƙara aiki zuwa shafin yanar gizon WordPress, duba zuwa plugins kafin kallon ƙirƙirar wani abu da kanka / biyan mai haɓakawa don yi maka.

Abubuwan mafi kyawun albarkatu guda biyu akan yanar gizo don Wuta WordPress sune:

1. WordPress.org – Tons of free plugins! But beware – some of the plugins are demo versions of the paid ones. Still, it’s a good place to find what you are looking for.

Karshe

2. CodeCanyon – Home to some of the best plugins on the internet. Although they are paid, they offer really good value for money. I usually get my plugins from here.

codecenyon

Kuma akwai 'yan fa'idodi na tafiya don biyan tukunyar kuɗi daga CodeCanyon:

Mataki 4. From the Plugins -> Plugins page activate your plugin, depending on the plugin you are using you may then be prompted to fill in some additional settings.

Here are some of my favorite Plugins:

Wuta Kyauta:

  • Contact form 7 (Free)– This is a simple free email contact form for your blog. It’s easy to set up, always works, and doesn’t take up much space!
  • Askimet (Kyauta) - Idan har kuna la'akari da barin maganganu a kan shafin yanar gizon ku na WordPress kuna buƙatar maƙallan spam na spam ɗin Askimet. Wannan plugin ɗin yana jujjuya yawan maganganun spam da zaku samu.
  • Yoast SEO (Kyauta) – Download this plugin before you download any. It’s a MUST HAVE plugin for SEO.

An Bude Wuta:

  • Mawallafin Kayayyakin kallo (Biya) – It’s THE BEST Page Builder for WordPress. Just drag and drop and you can create stunning page layouts in minutes. Love it!
  • Ninja – If you ever want to have the ability for the user to signup for your email newsletter from your blog, this is the plugin to have. Few clicks and you get a beautiful popup done.
  • BackupGuard (Paid) – It’s too easy to accidentally break your WordPress blog when installing a 3rd Party Plugin or theme, make sure you always da goyan baya. And this plugin does just that. It’s a lifesaver!

Yadda ake Samun Kudi daga Blog

Now that you have your WordPress blog nicely set up, with some content, a slick WordPress taken, and some great functionality added by Plugins it’s time to monetize your blog! There are two core methods to for making money from your blog, and everything boils down to these

Haɗin kai:

Affiliate marketing is where you promote other company’s products directly and earn a commission from any sales made.

For example, say you have a football blog, you could add affiliate links to football boots in your posts and make a commission off any boots sold, typically this would be 5 – 15%.

Akwai ɗaruruwan dabarun tallan tallace-tallace masu haɗin gwiwa a can, yakamata kuyi bincike game da wannan dangane da kuɗin ku, zakuyi mamakin yadda kamfanoni da yawa suke da tsarin. Amazon offers one of the most popular ones, it’s easy too!

Add special affiliate links to ANY product on the Amazon and make a commission of 4 – 10%. Amazon may not be the best paying site (this will vary wildly depending on the niche of your blog), but they do offer a HUGE range of products.

Adverts

Adverts are simple, got spare space on your blog, place an advert, often you will find these placed in the sidebar and within the content of any articles. Adverts can generate anything from $0.05 to $5 per click depending on the niche of your blog.

Google AdSense is the de facto online advertising company, simply fill in a 2-page signup form and you can start serving adverts to all your visitors. You don’t have to talk directly to companies to sell your advertising space.

Google’s advertising pay-outs differ massively from niche to niche, a highly competitive niche like credit cards, insurance, loans, etc.. will pay higher than less competitive ones.

Wannan shi ne saboda yanayin masu tallata tallace-tallace don sanya tallan tallan su, a cikin wannan ƙari ɗin 'sanannen' shafin ku shine za ku iya tsayawa don samun kuɗi.

Typically, you might expect something like a 0.5 – 3% click-through rate, i.e. the number of your visitors who actually click on the adverts.

Kyakkyawan haɗuwa na dabarun biyu ana bada shawara galibi.

Next Matakai

Now that your WordPress blog has been set up and you’ve monetized it’s time to start expanding and really pushing your blog.

Here are my top tips going forward:

  • Tsara abubuwan yau da kullun, you won’t always be in the mood to write content, use the built-in post scheduler so you can write multiple posts when you feel like it while still allowing regular content to flow. Articles every few days are better than 5 on the same day. Here is another Maganin sarrafa kansa na WordPress.
  • Koyi komai game da SEO (search engine optimization) that you can, this is a huge topic, you will never fully learn it, but the more you know the more successful blog will be.
  • Ci gaba da kyau, your blog will unlikely blossom overnight, it takes months of hard work, but in the end dedication and good content pays off.

Good luck and start blogging!
