WordPress.com vs WordPress.org PLUS how to setup a SELF HOSTED WordPress site #Best Education Page #Online Earning

in this video I'm gonna be explaining

the difference between a wordpress.com

website and a wordpress.org website I'm

also going to be showing you how you can

set up your very own self-hosted

wordpress.org website towards the end of

this video so let's get started

hello always hallux here from WP eagle I

hope you're all well now before I start

if you're not already subscribed then

simply click the red button below the

one that says subscribe on it and then

click the bell and you'll be notified

when I upload new videos it tends to be

every single week I'd absolutely love to

have you as a subscriber

so why not do it now but anyway a

question that I get all the time is

what's the difference between

wordpress.com and wordpress.org I also

see people signing up for the wrong one

all the time too they hear about you

know wordpress and wordpress websites

are really cool and a good thing to have

and they think hey i'd like myself for

wordpress website and they head over to

wordpress.com they sign up for one of

the plans maybe the free plan or the one

above that and they get this site set up

and then they find that they can't do

everything that they need to do because

generally people on the internet talking

about wordpress.org you know in

tutorials that kind of stuff and that is

different to wordpress.com so let me

just explain the differences right now

so let's start with wordpress.com

wordpress.com is run by the guys at

automatic who basically build wordpress

and make WordPress and what they've done

is they've made it simple they've taken

one person they've simplified it and

they've put it in a nice package so that

people can just you know sign up and get

a wordpress site without had to worry

too much about anything technical now

this is great if you want a really

simple WordPress website that's kind of

you know restricted in it in quite a few

ways it makes it really easy and if you

just want to you know have a blog and

add some content then wordpress.com

might be for you the problems arise when

you want to do a little bit more than

that maybe you want to add some plugins

or use your own theme then you can have

a few issues because the basic plans on

wordpress.com don't allow you to do that

now I see that recently they've added a

business plan I think they call it which

allows you to install plug-ins and

themes and things like that which is

great however the cost for that plan is

I think twenty dollars or twenty pounds

a month which is quite expensive when

you compare it to what you can do on a

self-hosted WordPress site using word

or so let's talk about wordpress.org now

this is the version of WordPress that

most of us are familiar with it's

available over at wordpress.org you can

download it and you can install it on

your own servers or computers or

whatever now I know that sounds

complicated

however it's not actually that

complicated because most hosting

companies that you take out hosting with

for example Hostgator they make it

really easy to install WordPress so you

don't actually have to worry about

downloading and uploading and installing

and all that kind of stuff you can

literally just click a button and have a

wordpress or website up and running in

no time at all benefits of using the

version of WordPress that comes from

wordpress.org is that it's the

full-blown version and you can easily

install plug-ins you can install themes

you can customize it to your heart's

content and you're not going to be

restricted in any way so generally if

you're looking to do pretty much

anything more than just a very very

simple blog then wordpress.org is gonna

be the version for you so what I'll do

now is I'm going to jump on the computer

and I'll show you exactly how you can

set up your very own self-hosted

wordpress.org website I'll take you

through setting up the hosting sorting

out a domain name and getting WordPress

installed so then you're ready to add

your content add your team add your

plugins whatever you're looking to do so

let's get on computer and do that right

now the first thing you're gonna need is

any domain name no domain name is a

dot-com doctor at UK dot net org dot

whatever you know there's a lot of

domain names available nowadays now

personally I like to keep all my domain

names in one place and that place is

GoDaddy it's coming up and using for a

long time they are great for domain

names we're not going to be using them

for our hosting our hosting is where the

website lives I'm going to be using a

different company for that but for

domain names GoDaddy is definitely the

one now if you've already got a domain

name registered maybe with a different

provider that's fine I'm gonna be

showing you how you can use that the

main name in a few moments and in fact

if you want to just skip this domain bit

then I'll put a time on the screen now

and you jump forward to that and we'll

be getting on with the hosting

anyway domain name come over to GoDaddy

I'll put a link in the description

please be aware that any links that I

may share with you they could be

affiliate links which will mean I'll get

a small Commission if you use them so

thank you very much

but keep in mind that I only recommend

services that I use myself and I think

you're good so yeah Go Daddy

you get this big box just simply type in

the domain name you want now I'm just

gonna get a kind of demo sort of

training name for this and light

actually setting up a real site so

something like where WP org demo then

I'm gonna click search and it's gonna

let me know if that domain is available

which it is yes my domain is available

to buy if whatever you were searching

for is not available you gonna have to

try either a different extension so dot

org net dot info or whatever or you know

try different variations on the words

that you entered so it's added it to my

cart if it hasn't done that for you then

click the Add to Cart button and it's

just 99 pence for the first year so not

a huge expense so continue to cart now

it's added some privacy which I would

recommend it is optional but I would

recommend it because it basically hides

your personal details you don't have

this your personal details will be

available on the internet which could

mean that you get spammed and all that

kind of stuff which is a bit annoying so

$4.99 a year you can eliminate that I

tend to go for this on on all the

domains that I own you don't need

anything I don't need is managed

WordPress or this email address thing we

can do all that with our hosting which

we're setting up in a moment or to just

continue these options okay I'm now in

the checkout now I'm already sign up

with GoDaddy and logged in so if you're

not then there may be a bit now that you

need to fill in it ought to register and

that's all fine I'm gonna go through

this checkout now and make the payment

so I've registered the domain I finished

to check out all that kind of stuff and

now on I was at WP demo com I see the

GoDaddy screen which means it's all

registered and all working and and ready

to go it didn't take as long as I

thought and it took about 20 minutes

some like that for it to come live

so just be patient and when you get this

screen that means you're ready to go so

the next thing we need to do is just set

up our hosting and install WordPress

which won't take too long

but let's do that now okay so I'm over

at hostgator.com you'll find a link in

the description or just simply head over

to hostgator.com as I said earlier any

links that you find in the description

they may be affiliate links I will and a

commission if you use them but I do only

recommend products or services that I

use myself and I think are good like

Hostgator so what we need is some

website hosting the reason why I go for

Hostgator is because they are extremely

good value for money some of the lowest

prices you'll find online for hosting

but even though they are very cheap the

service they provide is good you get

nice fast hosting you get good support

and you get all the features that you

need

they also guarantee uptime of over 99%

so your websites unlikely to go down so

let's click on web hosting you'll see

that there is WordPress hosting too but

we don't actually need that the web

hosting is fine we can do WordPress

stuff with that and it's cheaper so when

we come through to the web hosting page

we can then choose the package now if

you just going to set up the one web

site with a single domain then the

hatchling is fine it starts at 275 a

month which if you compare that to

wordpress.com which we were talking

about earlier if you go for their

business plan that's 20 20 pounds a

month so that could be like $25 a month

something like that so this is way

cheaper if you're thinking of setting up

more than one website and you want to

have you know unlimited drains then the

baby or the business plan might be

better for you with the business plan

you get a free SSL and stuff too but

generally the hatchling is gonna be fine

and of course you can upgrade your plan

at any time if you need to so click sign

up now

and we now have the order form now we're

not gonna be registering a domain with

Hostgator because as I mentioned I think

it's better to use a domain registrar to

keep all your domains in one place

so I recommended GoDaddy as you saw

earlier so if you have got the main name

go back to GoDaddy and register one

there if you've already got a domain

name with someone else

that's five two I'm going to show you

how to adjust that in a few moments so

what we need is the I already own this

domain tabs are giving that click and

then just simply type in the domain name

that you want to use probably the one

you just registered with GoDaddy all the

one that you've already got over with

your domain registrar so WP dot org demo

com was the main name I just registered

over at GoDaddy then what its gonna do

is just add it there and it's also gonna

recommend some other names if I want

them which I don't so I'm not gonna tick

any of those boxes just leave that top

one as it is and scroll down and now we

get to choose our hosting plan and the

package type has already been selected

that's what we just did a moment ago but

if you want to change it you can

next is the billing cycle and hosting is

much better value if you go for a longer

period so the one month is 1095 a month

though I do have a discount batch which

I'm going to share with you in a few

moments which will get you a better

price than that however the price is

basically virtually half or at least

there's thirty three point five two

percent off and kind of half nearly if

you go for 12 months 24 months is even

better the thirty-six months is even

better than that so I would recommend

going for one of these in terms of

billing cycle go for twelve months and

then you get a much better price so I'm

gonna select the twelve months you then

need to enter a username so just type in

something that you're gonna remember

that you're gonna use to log in to

Hostgator enter a security pin you're

gonna need that when you contact the

customer support if you need to contact

customer support I'm not going to fill

in the whole form right now that's a bit

boring but I'll take you through it the

next thing is your billing info so usual

stuff email name address all that kind

of information on the right-hand side

you can enter your credit card or you

can pay with paypal let's scroll down

again section four is additional

services and you don't need any of this

so just aren't tick all that stuff if

it's ticked

Section five very important is the

coupon code I said I've got a voucher

that I can give you our coupon code I

can give you so let's type that in now

it is Eagle free zero and this should

give you a better at discount therm

whatever has been offered already so at

the moment I've got this kind of 36 and

before I validate the code I validate

the code I've now got a discount of 42

so a much better discount if you do go

for that one month plan you'll get your

first month for just a penny

using this code it is an affiliate

coupon so I will get paid the Commission

if you use it but it gives you a great

discount and it's a great way of saying

thank you to me for making these videos

but of course it's entirely up to you

whether you use it or not

so yeah the code is eagle free zero and

then click validate and then we're about

done just gonna tick the terms or

conditions whatever terms are service

and the case I should pull up seen all

that stuff and then click checkout now

so I will get my hosting all set up I'll

just fill in this checkout with all my

payment details all that kind of stuff

then all we need to do is repoint

our domains so that it's pointing at

this new hosting and then we'll install

WordPress so let's do that now so I

agree to checkout place my order all

that kind of stuff put my credit card in

and I've just received this email from

Hostgator hopefully you've received the

same sort of thing too and this contains

all the information I need in order to

access my new hosting account so once

you've got this email keep it safe you

probably gonna need it going forward so

the next step before is the WordPress

there's one more little thing we need to

do and that is just repoint domain name

at our new hosting so I'm gonna head

over to GoDaddy to do that you'll need

to head over to whoever you've got your

domain name with godaddy that's fine you

need to follow me if it was someone else

then the principal is basically saying

you're gonna want to log in to your

domain provider find the devayne that

you want to use and then update the name

servers and there should be some option

around that you know in the DNS section

or the name service section so let's go

over to GoDaddy and do that now

I'm gonna go in I'm already logged in

I'm gonna go to manage domains I'm gonna

find the domain I need I can just search

for it so it's WP oh there it is a

little demo calm the one I just

registered and then gonna click on these

three little dots and go to manage DNS

as I said it should be pretty similar

with whoever you're using looking for

those DNS settings here we've got some

records we don't need em what we do need

is the name servers which we can find

here and I'm just going to change these

to the Hostgator name servers so does

that I click change going to select

custom and then we got two boxes to put

them in if we go back to that email the

name servers are in there so we can just

copy into our clipboard and then paste

in like that and the second one is right

there let's copy that paste it in click

Save okay that's all done now that's

gonna take a little while to update

could take 20 minutes could take an hour

could take even longer so I'm just gonna

wait for that to update you know that

it's working when you visit your domain

name in your browser and you see a

Hostgator page that means it's all

working so yeah I'm just gonna give it a

few moments for it to do that and then

then the very last step is to log in and

it still WordPress so that only took

about a minute

it didn't tell you some of their thought

and now when I go over to WP org demo

comm which is the domain name I just

registered as you know I see this

Hostgator page so that means we're up

and running we're pointing to the

Hostgator hosting all we got to do now

is install WordPress so let's do that

I'm gonna go back to that email that I

got with all my account info and what we

need to do is go to the control panel

this link here I'll give that a click

then I need to enter my username and

password which again are in the email so

let's paste in that username which is

the one I entered when I signed up for

the hosting and then go

and set the password copy that paste it

in and then click login browsers asking

me if want to save I can do we don't

need this banner okay so this is our

Hostgator control panel you can do all

sorts of things in here like setup your

email and you know basically just manage

everything to do with your site all we

need to get WordPress up running is this

link here which just build a new

WordPress site it's gonna give that

click then we've got a very simple

wizard set up kind of thing that we need

to go through it's very straightforward

first thing we're going to do is choose

a domain name it's the only one there's

quite easy

leave the directory blank and then just

click Next you then need to give your

website a name it says blog title but

obviously WordPress is way more than a

blog it's a fully functioning website so

I'm just gonna call this my WP dot org

demo you need to create an admin user so

this is the username that you're gonna

be using to log into WordPress which is

different to logging into your Hostgator

control panel your WordPress login is

what you use to add all your content and

set up your site and all that kind of

stuff so I'm just gonna go my name don't

ve go first name WP last name eagle then

I need to enter a email address so eagle

at WP eagle com it's fine you then want

to make sure this is ticked the

automatically create a new database and

then you also want to tick the terms of

service agreement and then click

installer it will take just a few

moments to install WordPress for you

installation is complete so this

information here is what we're gonna use

to log in to our WordPress website so

it's very important that you make a note

of this password I'm just going to copy

it into my clipboard I also show you how

you can quickly change that once you

logged into something a little bit more

memorable so let's click login now this

is our WordPress login screen so if at

any point you need to access this to

really log into WordPress simply go to

your domain name slash

WP - admin so the username was when I

just entered which WP Eagle on the

password is what I've got my clipboard

so I'm just gonna place that in click

login and here we go within WordPress

you can save that into your browser if

you like he's a wordpress dashboard

ready to go ready to add our content and

set it up and all that kind of stuff and

by the way be sure to check out the rest

of the videos have got on my channel

they're all around WordPress and how to

do stuff so pretty fun those quite

useful but before we just take a look at

the front of the site I'm gonna just

change my password to do that I can come

up here and go to edit my profile scroll

down click generate password ok then

type in 1 and I'm hopefully gonna

remember it's gonna click hide so you

guys can't see it it thinks it's weak so

I'm gonna have to click confirm YouTube

weak password and then click update

profile so that's my password change to

something that I can actually remember

so to finish off let's have a quick look

at the site showing this if this comes

up it's probably just to browse a cache

thing just refresh here we go it's a

WordPress website running the default

theme all up and running on our own

hosting it's the wordpress.org version

so it means we can do whatever we like

with it and and that's it for this video

so that brings at the end of this video

I hope that's clarified any confusion

wordpress.org and you've been able to

follow that little tutorial and get

yourself a nice WordPress website up and
