GoDaddy offers a specific Wordpress hosting plan for a website and a basic hosting plan however, the basic plan offers an install of Wordpress as an option. They both cost the same amount. I don’t want to put myself in the situation where I can’t switch back from Wordpress if I don’t want to run a blog, but want to keep the hosting. Can someone explain the differences between the two plans?
What are the most effective Wordpress plugins to attract the most relevant traffic, the most relevant traffic and maximize website sales?
I am thinking maybe:
1. RSS feed plugins,
2. Cost Per Action (CPA) plugins or code snippets,
3. Affiliate plugins and/or links
Can you provide links to the tools that you think are the best, and let me know why you think they are the best?
Google loves blogs because new, unique and useful information can be added very quickly. Not only can the blog administrator add content but visitors to the blog can leave comments and ask questions. When people find answers to their problems, they will return to your blog in the future.
Wordpress is a very popular platform for blogging because it is a complete content management system which also allows you to add themes and plugins which will improve the functionality of your wordpress blog. You can setup your blog for free with wordpress or you can install wordpress on your own domain name.
I recommend installing wordpress on your own domain name because you have control of your blog. If you have your blog on the wordpress domain, your blog can be deleted without notice and then all of your hard work is gone forever. Installing wordpress on your domain name is very easy if your web hosting company offers install wordpress. Look for a web host that uses cPanel and has Fantastico. Click on the Fantastico icon and wordpress will be installed in minutes with a few clicks on your part.
Now that you have your blog setup, you need to add your wordpress adsense template theme. Not only do these templates have a header graphic for your particular niche but they are also setup with adsense ad blocks placed in high click areas. Good templates will also have the google search box and use the ad units to look like a navigation bar.
To install your wordpress adsense template theme follow these simple steps:
1. Open up the folder with all the wordpress files
2. Add your google id to the index.php and sidebar.php files
3. upload all files to wp-content/themes
4. login to your wordpress dashboard
5. Click on presentation tab
6. Click on your theme in available themes
7. Your wordpress adsense template is now your current theme
You now have a wordpress blog on your own domain in your selected niche.
Start adding your content about your niche and the google ads will change to relevant ads that pertain to your niche.
I have a website that has been up and running for some time now, and for numerous reasons I want to replace it with a Wordpress site.
So, how do I start building the Wordpress site – in a seperate folder from the “public_html” folder? Then when you are ready to move it into the public_html folder, do you have to correct whatever file-paths and link errors?
