Hello dear readers of my blog. Today I will show you how to buy a domain and hosting. You will learn: what needs to be done so that your portal can be seen by the audience, how to place the site on the server, where to look for them and which one to give preference to, as well as what to do next.

How your site will function depends on the choice of hosting. But let's take a closer look at everything.

Why do you need hosting

Hosting Is the repository that contains all your website data. Pictures, texts, etc. are placed there and delivered to the reader. This means that only thanks to hosting the site appears on the Internet and anyone can see the creation of your hands.

Some use programs that help to work with information, others write everything in a notepad and place files on a hosting.

Is it possible to do without hosting? No way.

What is a domain

Domain name Is the address where information about your site is posted.

By analogy, the publisher is the hosting partner, and the domain is the title of your book. Without the first, your story will not be published and will not reach readers, and without a title they will not know what to look for.

About paid and free services

There are free and paid partners that offer space on their own servers. Where is the best place to register a domain and hosting? Paid, of course. You yourself understand that in this way you become a real client who has all the rights and for whose attention they are fighting.

I already wrote an article on this topic and you can find it on my blog. A free hosting partner will not treat you with all the attention, he can take the site away, you cannot do anything and, of course, he will not give you a domain for the site just like that. You still have to pay for it.

Free hosting partners earn exclusively on advertising that they place on your resource in the amount they want. And believe me, it will be enough!

By not paying, you show the frivolity of your own intentions and do not look respectable in the eyes of your partner. In Russia, people do not particularly want to do something, and if they are not paid for it, then even more so. Unfortunately, this is a fact.

What is the best way to pay for a domain and hosting

One of the best hosting, in my opinion, is offered by TimeWeb ( www.timeweb.ru ). It is about him that we will talk today. You can find an article on which hosting is the best to create a website on this blog. Therefore, I will not repeat myself. Timeweb has a lot of advantages. Let's go straight to payment and connection.

How much does domain and hosting cost on timeweb? Well, the name for one site is given when you pay for the year for free, and the hosting ... it all depends on the scale at which you want to work.

To achieve your goal you need knowledge, skills and desire. That is, you must understand what you are working on, be able to work and improve your skills, and also really want to do something. Not a single criterion should be left out in order to achieve the set goal.

However, this is all theory. In practice, you will be periodically "released", especially at the initial stage, when the recoil is not so strong. You either do not want to do this, then you are lazy.

At the same time, it is important that the fuse returns at the moment when the portal is still “afloat”. Even though you can't bring yourself to do anything now, leave the opportunity to modify later. Just in case.

Over time, discipline will come along with desire.

So, for starters, you can register the simplest tariff for 108 rubles per month. You will have the opportunity to open 4 sites and 2 GB of free space. This is more than enough.

How to pay for hosting, instructions

So you go to the timeweb website in the "Hosting" section.

There is a button "Place a site" under your chosen tariff. Click on it.

This form will appear. Enter your name, email address, check the box next to "I agree with the terms of the offer." The button "Order hosting" will light up. Click on it.

Everything, you entered your Personal Area... You have 10 days of free trial period. You can use the services of this service absolutely free of charge and create your own sites free of charge for 1.5 weeks.

You will receive such a letter to your mail, which contains your username and password, as well as a link to access your personal account. All this must be saved so that later you do not have to worry about entering the hosting admin panel, but you still need it. I assure you.

You can pay for hosting and domain name immediately or within 10 days. As you wish. In any case, I'll tell you how to do it now. In the end, this is exactly what this article is about.

On the main page of your personal account, you will find the button "Pay for services". Click on it.

You will find the same page if you select the section "Finance and Payment" in the panel on the left. Many ways will appear before you.

Here you are also reminded once again that with an annual payment, the developers will give you the opportunity to create a website with a free domain.

Here you can also link your bank card to your account so that funds are debited automatically. Choose "pay".

Enter your card details, phone number and email address.

After that, you will be transferred to the payment site. You can choose another method. For example, webmoney.

Everything is exactly the same, in the "Finance and Payment" section, choose webmoney - pay.

Go to the already familiar standard form ().

After payment, in the upper right corner you can see how much money you have in your account, and on the main page you can see the time until the next payment, current balance and information about the tariff.

What to do next

Create a new directory (main folder) in the "Sites" section and bind the portal address to it.

Then choose in the "CMS Catalog" the program that will help you manage the site and connect it to make it easier to work.

In fact, you can rarely visit your personal account on the time web now. The site is edited mainly through the CMS, but it is on the hosting that you will have to connect statistics from search engines and confirm the ownership of the portal. Soon I will publish a video on working with hosting. You will learn about all this a little later.

Now you know how to run a website on hosting and I can take my leave with a clear conscience. Good luck to all. Hope it was helpful to you.

Good luck in your endeavors.

Hello dear readers of the blog site. This blog post has a detailed one. After or while reading this publication, I advise you to familiarize yourself with that article in order to get a complete picture. I also advise you to familiarize yourself with my publications on the topic of what and means.

Today we have a question on our agenda - what is domain or domain name(in fact, these are synonyms). Well, it's actually simple here. This is the name for the site, which is assigned to him instead of the hard-to-remember IP address of the server on which this site is hosted (see). Enter this name in the address bar of your browser and the site opens.

But it is in the details that the difficulties arise. What they are, how it all works, what domain zones are, how to understand which level domain and which of them can be registered, where it can be done and which zone to choose. There are many questions and I will try to answer everything in this "small note".

What is a domain?

As I mentioned above, domain is the name for the site..162.192.0. And besides, imagine the situation. You have placed the site on the hosting server (see above for what it is) and received an IP address. But moving to a different hosting IP will change, which will cause disaster. But in the case of domain names, this will not happen. Why?

The fact is that there are thousands of DNS servers (domain name systems) on the Internet, which will state that the site's domain is available at the IP address 108.162.192.0. If I move to another hosting, I will go to the domain name registrar panel (where I bought it), change something and all DNS servers on the Internet will indicate that the site needs to be searched for at a different IP address. Convenient, right?

Convenient, but probably not yet clear. The main thing to understand is the name for the site is a very important thing and it is for life (as a rule, although you can, if you wish, transfer the site to another domain, it is not easy). As you name the boat, so it will float. True, not only the name is important, but also the level of the domain, as well as the zone to which it belongs. Again, not clear? Well, let's go in order.

How a domain name works

Let's start with the basics. The domain record (site name) must include all levels of nesting of the domain (all the zones it belongs to) so that it is unique and there is no confusion.

There are two main domain name recording rules:

  1. The zones that this domain belongs to are listed from right to left.
  2. Dots are used as separators.

It may look like this, for example:

Net.blog.site

Get the domain fourth level net, which is part of the third-level domain zone "blog", which is part of the second-level zone "ktonanovenkogo" belonging to the first-level zone.ru. Nonsense, right? (my spouse, checking errors in the article, will be happy to confirm this).

What domain levels distinguish

  1. Root domain(level zero) is considered to be an empty entry, denoted simply by a period (.). In theory, the full domain name record should always end with a period, but in most cases it is omitted (as if in mind) and instead of the record: site.

    They use the already well-established relative notation of domains (without a dot at the end):

  2. This is followed by the first level - this is usually regional(national) domains (.ru, .su, .ua, .us, .de, .fr, etc.) or thematic(.com, .edu, .org, .net, etc.). But there are also first-level domain names that include national alphabets(for example, .рф).
  3. Second level- these are the same domains that we are with you buy(we register with special registrars). Prices for them differ not only depending on belonging to one or another first-level domain (for example, buy xxxxxxx.ru cheaper, as a rule, than xxxxxxx.com), but also depending on the registrar (or its reseller - retailer).
  4. Third, fourth, etc. - they no longer need to be bought (as a rule) and can be created independently (without registering anywhere) on the basis of the purchased second-level domain. For example, I can create such a name for a new site - forum..forum ..

Let's explain it all again For example:

  1. ... (dot) - zero (root) level domain
  2. ru - the first level, also called top-level domain or zone
  3. site - second level domain name
  4. blog.site - third level domain
  5. net.blog.site - fourth level

Top (first) level domains

Except for the zero level (root - root domain), because this is emptiness, then the so-called zones or top level domains(it is with them that the name of any site begins, although it seems that it ends with them - but not the essence). They cannot be bought to an ordinary person, but it is from these zones that we will choose when buying a second-level domain (name for our website).

So what are they:

  1. Domains of the first (top) level, assigned to countries, which are usually called by the abbreviation Cctld, which stands for country code top-level domain among helluva smart people. Russia has as many as two of them:
    1. su - a rudiment left over from Soviet Union and now representing the resource space in Russian
    2. ru - originally assigned to Russia
  2. Domains with national alphabets, which are usually denoted by the abbreviation Idn (internationalized domain name). In Russia, it is a zone. In fact, their names are still written in English characters (re-coding takes place), but this is, as it were, hidden from view. However, if you enter the address in the browser: http: //ktonnovaenkogo.rf/

    and after going to this site, copy its address from the address bar, you will get absolutely indigestible nonsense:

    Http: //xn--80aedhwdrbcedeb8b2k.xn--p1ai/ So it turns out that it looks unpleasant. And it is in this form that it will have to be added to different services (such as), and not in the form of a new one.rf. This must be taken into account. And other problems are possible, although at first they are not obvious.

  3. Upper common domains, usually with Gtld, which means generic top-level domain, are registered (sold) regardless of the country where the webmaster lives. The most commonly used ones:
    1. .com - for commercial projects
    2. .org - for non-profit sites of various organizations
    3. .net - for projects related to the Internet
    4. .edu - for educational institutions and projects
    5. .biz - commercial organizations only
    6. .info - for all information projects
    7. .name - for My Sites
    8. .gov - for US government agencies

How and where you can register (buy) a domain in top-level zones

Second-level domain names, as a rule, cannot be obtained just like that (and it is better not to try, because the name for the site is too important to risk registering it from someone who is not clear). They cost money. Moreover payment is made per year, and then the domain lease needs to be renewed.

Once again I will draw your attention - buy second level domain names, and everything that is above - you can create yourself on their basis. This is usually done in the panel of your hoster in the subdomains section - these are domains of the third and higher level, such as blog..blog.site.

There are not so many such companies (vivid examples are RegRu and WebNames), but they may have a whole network of resellers (partners) who will be engaged in the selection and sale of domains on their behalf. If the current reseller does not satisfy you with something or you are having strains with him, then by contacting the registrar, you can choose another reseller or go directly under the wing of the registrar.

At all with no restrictions You can buy domains in the public zones ..com, .net, .org, .info, .biz, and .name. In the .edu, .gov and.mil zones, such an opportunity is provided only for institutions, as well as educational and military institutions of the states. There are also a number of specialized first-level domains, for example, .travel, .jobs, .aero, .asia.

Second-level domain names in these public zones can be bought from any registrar(not only national), which, in fact, is used by some resources, which may have conflicts with copyright holders. The same torrents were forced to move to the public zone org, because in the national domain zone ru its resource was blocked.

Second Level Domains - Checking for Occupancy and Whois

About half a billion domain names have already been registered on the Internet in various zones, so choosing a good (short, simple, sonorous) name in the required zone is now very not an easy task(just as hard). A third of the registered names are not used at all, because they were bought for resale (successful domains can be expensive on the secondary market - sometimes many millions of dollars).

Checking a domain name for availability

Therefore, the first thing to do when choosing a suitable domain for a website is. This can be done with different registrars (the result will be the same, because they use a common database).

Therefore, when viewing domain information in the so-called whois records, you can find there your personal data, which you had to indicate during registration. In my opinion, it is better to hide this information, because there are enough dashing people on the Internet (although, if you need problems out of the blue ...).

Domain name history and purchase of vacated domains

The history of domain ownership can be traced in the so-called. There you can clearly see what kind of sites have ever been placed on this domain name, what they were and whether their history will not affect the initial attitude of search engines to your site.

Below are the currently vacated domains(for a detailed view, click on the price):

Good luck to you! See you soon on the pages of the blog site

First of all, let's remember what we covered in previous articles. Maybe you missed something!

List of verified registrars

There are many different registrar companies on the Internet where you can register a domain. I recommend taking domains only from verified official registrars.

Here's a list:

  • REG.RU (I recommend) is the number 1 registrar in Russia. I only buy from him.
  • 2domains.ru is the official partner of Reg.ru.
  • RU-center is the largest professional registrar.
  • Beget.ru is a good hosting and domain name registrar.

There are projects that can lure you with various promotions and discounts, offering to purchase a domain very cheaply or even free of charge as a gift to some service.

If you want to chase a freebie, then carefully read the terms of such promotions, so as not to be left empty-handed later. Be sure to look at the terms of purchase, to whom the address is registered, and what will be the cost of renewal.

Domain names are usually bought for a year. In a year they will need to be renewed and the amount of renewal can be several times higher.

I only use one registrar, so I made instructions using his example. Others may have a different buying process, but the principle is the same. I think you can easily figure it out, if anything, write in the comments, we will write down a separate instruction.

Step-by-step instruction

STEP 1. Registration on the REG.RU service

Go to the website https://www.reg.ru/ and go through a simple registration of your personal account, from which you will manage the purchased domains.

You just need to enter your e-mail address, which will receive data to access your account.

Find a letter in the mail with a username and password and log in to the site.

To register a domain in the national zone.ru .рф, etc., it will be necessary to indicate real passport data. When registering international zones, this is optional.

STEP 2. Choosing a free domain name

After setting up your account, proceed to search for a free domain, if you have not found it in advance.

At the very top of the site, enter your domain name or the word you want to use in the name, and click "Pick up".

The service will immediately show whether it is busy or not, and will also offer options in other zones and various variations.

All addresses with a button next to them "Choose", are free and can be bought. Find a suitable one and click on this button.

A window with a button appears below "Register".

STEP 3. Booking and payment

Let's move on to the registration process. A window opens with information about the domain and an offer additional services... I do not recommend choosing anything extra.

The only thing you might need is an SSL certificate. I will tell you what it is in a separate article. It will also be available for free a little later.

Skip all offers and click "Proceed".

Now you need to fill in the information about the domain name administrator. If the questionnaire was filled out during registration, then simply select a profile and the data from the questionnaire will appear.

In the next step, you need to register the DNS servers. If you have not bought a hosting space yet, then select “Use registrar servers - FREE”. Then I'll show you where to change them in order to link the site's domain to the hosting.

Click continue and proceed to payment. The domain is added to the trash. You will have 5 days to top up your balance and pay for the service.

Choose a payment method and pay. After payment, you will need to wait for a while until the domain is activated. A notification will be sent to the mail.

Domain purchased, what to do next?

Now you need to purchase hosting and link your domain to it. Is where your website data will be stored.

For young sites with low traffic, I can recommend Beget.ru. I have several sites running on it. There were no problems for 3 years and the cost of 100 - 150 rubles per month is quite inexpensive. I will also analyze in detail how to use it on the blog.

After you buy a hosting space, you need to find its DNS addresses in order to specify them in the domain settings.

They look like this.

After you have found them, and you have received a notification in the mail that the domain is registered, go to your personal account REG.RU. Further "My domains".

Choose your domain from the list. Click on it and get into its control. Find the link in the right column "DNS servers".

Come in and register the DNS of your hosting.

That's it, now you need to wait a little, usually from several minutes to a couple of hours (maximum up to 48 hours), until the information is updated and the domain starts functioning.

I really hope that my instructions helped you and everything worked out. If you have any questions about buying a domain name and the process of registering it, then ask them in the comments below. We will definitely help you figure it out and solve the problem.

That's it for today. I wish you success!

I forgot! If you want to create your own blog or information site and learn how to make money on it from 30,000 rubles, then I invite you to our course in the Knowledge Base. On it, in the lessons you will go through all the necessary steps to the result.

How to create your website for a beginner consider one detailed example... In this article, we will wiggle not only the convolutions, but also our fingers.

After reviewing the first two articles, we found out with the help of what it is possible create your website, or rather, what would be required for this, we managed for the site, decided on a theme for our site, and found out. It's time to act.

If you have chosen another hosting, do not forget to find out if there is a "MySQL database" service there. Otherwise, the steps for buying a domain are about the same as described below.

First, create a folder on your own and, for example, name it “My Site”, I named my folder “Make Money on the Internet”, and already in it I created a folder “How to create a website”. We save the downloaded WordPress archive in the "How to create a website" folder, in short, into the folder that you created (hereinafter "the folder") and unpack it there. For convenience in further work, create a new mailbox specifically only for your future site.

Before describing further actions, I want to warn you right away, when registering for services that will be needed when creating a site, use real and truthful personal data (no nicknames and fictitious addresses).

If you decide create your website really and honestly, in this case anonymity will not work. Serious and high-quality services may require you to provide scans (copies) of documents, guaranteeing confidentiality, do not be alarmed - this is a standard security procedure, the information provided will be available only to the administrator of the service (when we go to buy a car or go to the bank, we take our passport, and with serious services on the network).

Next, first you need to register with WebMoney - this electronic money system, in my opinion, is the most convenient and reliable. In any case, you will have to pay with it a lot of payments and receive your Internet earnings in the same system, to an electronic wallet. Here's how to do it. If you already have it, then continue on.

Choosing and connecting quality hosting

I advise you hosting "Domishko", it is convenient, reliable and of high quality, the WordPress engine will work well on it, this site of mine, where you are now, is parked on it, and it is also on the WordPress engine. If you have decided on a hosting and choose a "house", then follow this link (click on it): Hosting Domishko.

Do not see a catch in this (you need to do useful to people if you want to get mutual) the essence is simple, like everything in this world, having received useful information You follow my link, the host gets a regular customer who knows what he wants and pays a small percentage of his income to me for attracting a customer (this does not affect you), but you get a discount, since I was able to convince the hosting administration that on my site there is really worthwhile information and some more nuances (a trade secret not related to you). In the end, everyone is happy.

And so, let's go.

2. Choose a tariff and click "Domishko", since 1000 MB is just right to start, it's enough to put up photos and insert small video clips (if you need more space in the future, you can always switch to a higher tariff).

It's time to choose a domain name for the future site

Let's take a closer look:

For example: for a domain name zarabotat.site there are three sub-parts called levels and separated by dots:

ru- 1st level domain name;

website- 2nd level domain name (second level domain in the ru zone); zarabotat.site- 3rd level domain name (third level domain in the site zone).

It's easy to check a domain name for its uniqueness, ask a question in a search engine, if a search engine finds a site with a similar name, then come up with a new one, if you don't find something forward, continue on.

3. Choose "I want Domishko to register a new domain for me." Choose the zone ru, because in this zone the site indexing is faster and visitors will appear faster, but you can choose another zone of the 1st level, but the price of the rest will be more expensive.

4. At this stage you see if the selected domain is free, if not, then come up with another domain name. If free, then "Click to continue":

5. Further, in the additional settings, select the monthly payment term, it is quite convenient. Desired accommodation Russia (laws in different countries different and therefore it will be better that your created site is hosted under the jurisdiction of Russia) and "Updating the basket":

6. Here we will do without a screenshot (photo). At this stage, you need to register the details for your domain name, this is a mandatory procedure, and the required fields are marked with asterisks. Let me remind you again, enter your real data. Click "Update cart".

7. We register my special code, issued for my clients by agreement with the hosting "Domishko", discount code:

it will be valid if you switched to hosting from my website and my link (you can copy the code directly from here and paste where the promo code is written, copy without quotes), and click "Apply":

8. Make sure that the code is valid, check the payment details and click on "continue":

9. Fill in all the necessary (mandatory) fields below, select WebMoney RUR (if you have dollars on your wallet, you can select USD), accept the terms of the agreement and click "Complete order":


10.Check the data and click "Pay". Take a close look to the discount code Earnmoney worked and you got a discount.

Next, we make a payment through the WebMoney Transfer system. At the same time, you must have the WebMoney Keeper program enabled and the required amount must be on your account.... It is advisable to carry out payment work through the Internet Explorer browser. We press "pay":

Do not be alarmed by the price, it is indicated in rubles:

11. After payment you will receive a confirmation on your email specified during registration in paragraph 9.

12. A little later, you will receive an email from DOMISHKO with the heading "Please read and save this message." The data for the FTR connection will be indicated there, this message will need to be saved for the next stage.

Create a notebook in the folder, name it for example "site data" and save the data in it, such as server (port), Account, password.

I can congratulate you, the hosting for the future site has been prepared, it remains to work on the creation of the site itself, the most important thing is the "house", the place is purchased, paid for. Let's go ahead and see.

Instructions

If you decide to create a website, it will need a domain name - that is, the address where users can go to it. In the event that you do not want to register a domain, use one of the free services to create a website. To do this, type in the search engine "create", you will get a lot of necessary links.

If you want complete independence, register your own domain. It is very simple to do this, the registration procedure takes a few minutes and will cost you within 100 rubles for the zone.ru and about 400 for the zone.com. To find sites of registrars, type in the search engine "domain registration", select the desired service and follow all instructions.

When registering a domain, remember the data for entering your personal account, you will still need them. After completing the registration procedure, start creating site pages. Use for this program Dreamweaver, it allows you to quickly create quite professional sites. You can use ready-made free templates, there are a lot of them on the net.

Download the template, open it in Dreamweaver, and modify it as needed. Use this template to create all site pages. Use the Denwer program in order to test the site's functionality. The program allows you to view the site in the form in which it will be posted on the Internet. At this stage, you will be able to find and correct any mistakes that you made.

Site pages are created, now you need hosting - the place where you will put your site. Type "hosting" in the search engine and choose the option that suits you. There are many offers, so it is quite possible to find quality services for about 30-40 rubles per month. Choose exactly what you need. Don't overpay for opportunities you don't use.

You have a domain name, site pages and hosting. Now you need to tie it all together. Go to the control panel of your hosting account, find the public_html folder. It is in this folder that you need to upload all the pages of your site. This can be done either through a browser or via FTP.

You have downloaded the pages of the site, but it does not open by domain name. This is as it should be, since you have not yet "linked" the domain name to the hosting. Find out in the hoster's support service or in the FAQ section the names of its DNS servers, usually there are two of them. After that, log into your account on the domain registrar's website and write down the names of the DNS servers in the appropriate fields. Save your changes. It remains to wait a little, within 24 hours your resource will begin to open by domain name.
