Is It Possible to Create a Website for Free?

Of course, everyone can build a website today free of charge, irrespective of the
available technical knowledge, coding experience, and website design
competence. This can be rather a difficult task for newbies; however, it’s
possible to manage it if you have the best intents and also proper tools that can
facilitate you to get one of the most out of the web design and development
process.

What you must understand is that building a website for free takes a while and
also initiative as well as you’ll need to complete all the actions of the project
development process on your own. DIY website development is not that
challenging task because you understand all the major stages and processes to
pick the best web development tools. You won’t be able to work with a designer
or web development agency to build your website for you. However, this is not
compulsory in the dominating amount of situations. You can go with one of
your favorite CMS (Content Management Systems) to build modern DIY
websites, and it is one of the easiest ways to build your websites without
coding.

To work with CMS, you must prepare to invest even more effort and time to
understand the web design procedure. Making use of Content Management
Systems at first indicates some coding knowledge as well as website design
knowledge. You won’t do without code editing to launch a professional site with
significant efficiency and a unique layout. But you can build a good website
without code editing if you have chosen a professional Theme. When picking
one of the most appropriate and reliable website development platforms, it
makes good sense to consider several facets. Such as your knowledge of
coding fundamentals, skills, website design experience, type of website you
intend to begin, short term and long-term goals.

What is Web Hosting?

In the simplest words, the land you rent for the publication of your website is
called web hosting. It is rented monthly, annually, or any billing term in line with
the sales policies of your hosting provider. It kept your website open 24 hours a
day on a computer with a high internet connection and hardware capacity. Your
visitors on the Internet, by typing your site’s IP address (or domain name) into
browsers such as Google Chrome, to connect to the section reserved for you
on the computer (hosting server) where your site is hosted. As can be
understood from this statement, more than one site on computers may provide
hosting services. But if you buy a VPS or dedicated server, this computer or
hosting server should be dedicated to your website(s).

What is a Domain Name?

Every site has an IP address that is the address of the hosting machine where
the actual files and data are stored. But IP addresses are long and numerical,
just like phone numbers. For example, the IP address of the Temok blog you are
currently reading is “178.162.151.48”. In other words, if you type “http://
178.162.151.48” in Google Chrome or a different browser, this is the address you
will come to. But this is a very tedious process. Because if you are a regular
visitor to twenty different sites (which is more), you have to memorize similar
numbers for each one. To get rid of the difficulty of this job, web developers
have developed a product called “domain” inspired by the phone book.

Domain; It is an easier-to-remember solution that defines the IP address of your

website, has hundreds of extensions such as .com, .net, .org, and can be
created from letters and/or numbers. IP address of your site with the
technology called Name Server; is defined to the domain you choose, and when
visitors type your site’s domain address into the browser, your site will be
opened directly, just as you can see in the example of
typinghttps://www.Temok.com/into the browser instead ofHTTP://
178.162.151.48.
What is Script/Theme?

Web Theme/script is the name of the Front-End, and Back-End coded website
template you have installed on your hosting server. The areas that a visitor sees,
applications running in the background, content on your site, many elements
that come to your mind are included in the script/theme.

Scripts/themes are also built just like real buildings. When using construction
materials such as sand, cement, and iron to construct an entire building,
“coding” is used to construct your virtual building.

Coding (i.e., writing code) is also divided into methods in itself. While some
websites are coded with PHP scripting language, some are coded with ASP
scripting language. While constructing structures from different materials such
as reinforced concrete, prefabricated, and wood in real life; In the virtual world,
structures are built with different coding languages.

At the same time, using the WordPress infrastructure, you can set up your
website without the need for code knowledge by using open-source designed
and coded great themes.

How to Create a Website Free of cost?

Now that we have determined the website’s requirements, we can start looking
for an answer to the question of “how to create a website.” But the first thing
we need to determine is; What will be the purpose of your website. Because the
site you want to set up; can be a personal blog where you will share your articles
from time to time, a corporate website that means your company’s office on
the internet, or an e-commerce site that you will use to present the products
you offer to the customers. You may even want to do all of these within a
website.

In this article, I will tell you how to create a website free of cost where you
can share your articles, promote your company and sell your products.

You can build your website free of cost using WordPress CMS, but you need a
domain name and a hosting plan to publish your website on the internet. You can
get FREE .COM domain with lowest priced Linux shared hosting plan. In short,
you will only pay for hosting from Temok, and in return, you will get a Free .com
and be able to build your website for free using WordPress. It is important that
choose shared hosting at the beginner level to reduce costs. Because a newly
opened website (if it is not a special project) will not attract many visitors and
will not take up a lot of space, cheap hosting packages will solve our business.
If your hosting package becomes insufficient to meet your site’s needs over
time, you can always upgrade to a higher package by paying the price difference.

I prefer Linux Shared hosting because, in this article, I will tell you about
WordPress, a CMS content management system that will meet all your needs,
and “How to create a WordPress website?” that we will answer the question.

How to Create a Website with WordPress?

WordPress; It is a type of free script that is constantly developed by hundreds

of thousands (perhaps millions) of programmers.WordPress runs only on Linux
hosting packages with full performance.

In the hosting control panels (for example, CPanel) offered by a good hosting
company such as Temok, WordPress is installed with one click using the
Softaculous app. You can login to the cPanel with your username and password
and set up your site in a minute or two with one or two clicks (without any
coding knowledge).

To explain in stages;

1. The domain name is decided, and the domain is registered.

2. The hosting company is decided, and the domain is directed to the Name
Server address specified by the company. If the domain and hosting are
purchased from the same company, this process is done automatically.

3. With the hosting panel information received from the Temok via email, the
panel is entered, and WordPress is installed with one click.

WordPress Theme and Plugin Installations

In the light of the above information, you learned how to set up a basic website.
On this occasion, we can say, “Welcome to the world of webmasters.” But as
you can imagine, the site setup does not end there. We still have a long way to
go.

To be more understandable from the beginning of our article, “How create a

website free of cost?” to the question, I tried to answer by analogy to real
buildings. To continue our effort, we will continue to explain WordPress themes
and WordPress plugins in this way.

Theme; It is the interior and exterior of a website. Just as the parts of a

whole building that are visible to visitors are called “facades,” the parts of
websites seen by visitors are called “themes” or “interfaces.”
WordPress developers have designed more than one hundred thousand paid and
free themes for this script. You can get information about free WordPress
themes and get these themes by checking our other articles.

Of course, an entire building has various add-ons. For example, air conditioning
systems, security systems, communication systems are among the add-ons of
a building. We can call it a building add-on for a boiler, air conditioner, security
camera, and even a doorbell. We want to say that your website also needs
various plugins for users and you to benefit.

For example, the contact forms your visitors fill out to reach you are an add-on.
In general, this feature is activated by installing a plugin named “contact form 7”.
On the other hand, WordPress plugins for different purposes such as security,
site speed, SEO.

You can install a WordPress theme and WordPress plugins on your site with a
few clicks, often without technical knowledge. However; Some professional
WordPress themes and plugins may require coding knowledge. However, since
there are many WordPress developers both in the country and abroad; It will be
cheaper than other scripts to have the theme or plugin you need installed or
even code it specifically for your needs.

How to Set Up an E-commerce Website with WordPress?

WordPress; It also allows you to set up an e-commerce site with its plugin
named “WooCommerce.” Honestly, it’s not enough at the moment to showcase
and sell hundreds of products. However, if the number of products you sell on
the website you set up is not too much, WooCommerce alone is enough for
you.
Again, there are thousands of “WooCommerce themes” on the market. Apart
from this, almost all organizations that provide payment system services offer
free plugins to collect from your WordPress site. Most of the add-ons that will
allow you to integrate banks’ virtual pos to your site are free or sold at very low
prices.

Other CMS Systems

There are CMS systems in the market where you can set up a personal blog and
corporate websites such as Joomla, Drupal, and others that do the same with
WordPress; There are also CMS systems specialized in e-commerce, such as
OpenCart, Magento, PrestaShop. Moreover, almost all of these CMS systems
can be done with a few clicks, like installing WordPress.

Launching A Web Site With No Experience Has Now Become A Reality

Website Development Costs

It is almost impossible to determine a standard price for these costs. Because

the only factor determining the website’s cost is your expectation, you can have
a simple website in minutes by using free themes and plugins in today’s
conditions. However, it is possible to publish a website by spending millions of
dollars.

If you have just entered the web industry and want to make more or less money
in this industry for the rest of your life, to say hello to the web world, I
recommend you start with the lowest costs. In this manner;

1. Domain Name
2. Web Hosting

3. CMS of your choice

It will be enough for you. But if you enter the web with an e-commerce site; Your
costs will increase slightly. Because even if you use a CMS system; Depending
on the type of product or service you are trying to sell, you will need additional
requirements. For example, the cargo module.

What Should You Consider When Choosing a Hosting Company?

Here is the most exciting point. Especially those who are at the beginning of
their professional life in the digital world start the match 5-0 because they
choose the wrong hosting provider. To start the match with a score of at least
0-0, you should ask your hosting company the following questions.

1. Check feedback and review on different websites.

2. Does it offer 24/7 technical support? (Websites are systems that should be
open 24 hours a day. For this reason, in case of any problem, they should be
accessible 24/7 with a ticket or similar system.)

3. Do you have serious references? (The web hosting company is just like your
barber or accountant. They should not be changed frequently. You should
question this situation as you will not have problems or will experience less in
hosting companies with serious references)

Now that you have finished the article, you have advanced knowledge about
setting up a basic website. By continuing to review the blog, you can have a
better command of the professional internet world. Good luck.
