Thread: Order of setup

Order of setup

This may be a very simple question, but I am completely new to setting up a website, so I hope someone can help me with this question.

I have been looking at setting up a Classipress site, and I am very impressed with what it seems to offer. I have been looking into which server, and have decided to go with Bluehost. My question is, what order do I need to do everything in?

Do I purchase ClassiPress, then buy a domain name, then pay for the server? Or do I need to do it in a different order?

I just want to make sure I do it in the right order so that it is the easier and safest way for me to set up withough screwing it up.

Thanks for your time.

Dosen´t matter what you do! Just be sure that is linux server (PHP) and not windows.

Be sure that is not slow servers test later and if feels slow change to another host...

i looked at bluhost and realy i don`t like this that you get free domain! hmm... what is the catch, read everything carefully...Can you move domain name if you want to do that, can you transfer domain name? How much does transfer cost? etc etc...

Steps, easy as pie

1. Click here (hostgator) and select your package
2. Pay for your package via Paypal (Cheapest is $4.95US a month!)
3. Select your domain name (Its free when you sign up!) eg. http://www.myadsite.com
4. You will be given a url for the control panel for your site (cpanel)
5. Login to your cpanel and click install wordpress (using fantastico icon)
6. Install Classipress theme
7. Viola!
