How to Quickly Make a Website in 10 Minutes

Introduction

In this blog post, we will guide you step by step on how to quickly create your own website in just 10 minutes, without any programming or coding knowledge. By following these simple instructions, you will be able to build a website that looks professional and functions effectively. So, let's get started!

Step 1: Choose a Name for Your Website

The first step in creating your website is to pick a name for it. Your website's name or domain is an important aspect as it reflects your brand or purpose. For this example, we have chosen the name "quicktechy.com". To check the availability of your chosen name, simply click the link provided below the video. If the name is available, proceed to the next step.

Step 2: Get Hosting and Domain

Hosting and domain are the two essential components required for launching a website. Hosting provides the storage space for your website's files, while the domain is the web address that users will use to access your site. To get hosting and domain, scroll down on the page and click on the "get hosting" button. This will redirect you to a site called GoDaddy.com, where you can purchase your hosting.

Step 3: Install WordPress

WordPress is a popular content management system that simplifies the website building process. It allows you to create and customize your website without any coding skills. To install WordPress, scroll down on the page and click on "managed WordPress". Follow the prompts to select your domain and create a username and password for WordPress. Once everything is set up, you can access your WordPress dashboard by visiting your website address followed by "/login".

Step 4: Install a Theme

A theme gives your website its overall look and feel. For this tutorial, we recommend installing the "Astra" theme, as it is easy to use and highly customizable. To install the Astra theme, go to the "themes" section in your WordPress dashboard and click on "add new". Search for "Astra" and click on the "install" button. Activate the theme once it is installed.

Step 5: Install the Astra Sites Plugin

The Astra Sites plugin provides a range of pre-designed templates that you can use to kickstart your website design. Install the plugin by going to the "plugins" section in your WordPress dashboard and clicking on "add new". Search for the "Astra" plugin and install and activate it. Once activated, you can explore the library of designs by clicking on "see library".

Step 6: Customize Your Website

Now that you have installed WordPress, a theme, and the Astra Sites plugin, it's time to customize your website. You can easily edit any page by clicking on "Edit with Elementor" in your WordPress dashboard. Elementor is a drag and drop page builder that allows you to make changes to the content, layout, and design of your pages. Simply click on the element you want to edit and start making your desired changes.

Step 7: Edit the Header and Footer

The header and footer sections of your website contain important elements such as your logo, menu, and contact information. To edit these sections, go to the "customize" option in your WordPress dashboard. From there, you can easily change the logo, menu, and text by selecting the corresponding blue icons. Once you are satisfied with the changes, click "publish" to make them live on your site.

Step 8: Add New Pages

If you want to add additional pages to your website, it's a simple process. In your WordPress dashboard, click on "new" and then "page". Enter a title for your new page and click on "Edit with Elementor". You can either use the available elements to build your page from scratch or choose from a variety of pre-designed templates. Once you have added your content, click "save" and your new page will be created.
