The ‘blogging for kids’ concept for my children is a hit with my family. So it was time for me to figure out how to create a simple blog-based website from scratch.
I started this article as I was learning how to set up a blog, to share it with you here. It seemed like an intimidating effort but it was SO EASY BECAUSE a GoDaddy.com representative stayed on the phone with me for 63 minutes and took me step-by-step through it.
Step 1 is picking a name. I went to whois.net and typed in the name I wanted. Luckily, it was available.
Step 2 is registering the name. I went to GoDaddy.com to register it. (That’s where I am now — while starting this blog.)
Step 3 is finding a coupon code to get the address at a discount. Before I buy (just about) anything online, I go to Google and type in the name of “the thing” and add the word “coupons,” as in, “godaddy coupons.” The top result saved me $3 on a $10 purchase.
