Tutorial Hosting
Tutorial Introduction
Welcome to Scholar Hosting’s YouTube channel! My name is Buruslav, and today I am excited to introduce you to our comprehensive guide on building and launching websites using Joomla. Joomla is the world’s second most popular content management system, powering more than two and a half million websites and renowned for its ease of use and versatility. If you’re thinking of launching a new website, Joomla is definitely one of the content management systems you need to consider. However, if you’re completely inexperienced, you might be a bit apprehensive about the whole process of creating a website with it. Let’s take a look at our guide and see how it will help you out.
What You Need to Launch a Website
First of all, we have a few paragraphs on what you need in order to launch a website. Obvious, you need a hosting account under the main name. In this section, you will see what the different types of hosting are, how they compare to each other, and you’ll also get some advice on what your domain name needs to look like. We’ll explore the options available, such as shared hosting, dedicated hosting, and cloud hosting, to help you make an informed decision.
The Importance of Domain Name
When it comes to choosing a domain name, it’s essential to consider the relevance of the name to your website’s content. A good domain name should be memorable, easy to spell, and easy to pronounce. Additionally, it’s crucial to choose a top-level domain (TLD) that is relevant to your website’s purpose. For instance, if you’re creating a website for a business, you may want to choose a.com or.co domain, whereas a.edu or.org TLD may be more suitable for educational or non-profit organizations.
Setting Up Joomla
Now that you have your hosting account and domain name, it’s time to install Joomla. With most hosting accounts, you’ll get a one-click installer that can set up Joomla in a matter of seconds. Just in case, however, we have included screenshots and instructions on what you need to do in order to install it manually. The process may take a bit longer, but as you’ll see, there’s nothing too complicated or difficult about the steps.
Joomla Administration Panel
Once Joomla is installed, you need to get familiar with its administration panel. This is where you control what your Joomla website looks like and what sort of content it displays. In here, you’ll find all the tools and menus you’ll use to manage your website. We’ll take a closer look at the different sections of the administration panel and provide screenshots and instructions on how to perform tasks such as selecting a template, installing a new template, customizing existing templates, and managing extensions and modules.
Creating and Publishing Content
Finally, we’ll show you what you need to do in order to create and publish new articles and pages on your Joomla website. We’ll cover the basics of writing an article, including how to format your text, add images, and create links. You’ll also learn how to publish your articles, categorize them, and manage their meta tags.
Conclusion
Our guide is by no means comprehensive, but it can be a good starting point for those who are new to Joomla. We hope that by following our steps and instructions, you’ll be able to create a professional-looking website with ease.
