 BUILDING A WEBSITE 


                                                               wix

 Building a website is not an easy task.There are a few ways to build a website , you can either use wix.com or you can also build a website with html coding. In the case of wix ,you can use templates which are already built in it and all you have to do is just select the best and attractive template. 

                                               


                                                                               HTML             

The next way is to write html coding, but to make the website more attractive you have to use java script and css. Opacity, transparency are few html codes which helps in making the background more attractive. The main point to be noted is "html websites cant be made attractive without the usage of css". At first i wanted to make a website only with html and i dont want to use any other coding and i failed in it.Then at one stage i realised that css plays a main role in building a html website. So if have any idea of building a website in html and if you are a                                                             beginner you have to use css coding too.        

                                            HOSTING THE WEBSITE

PURCHASING DOMAIN


Now you have created your website and now you have to host your website so that everyone can use it.It is not a big deal ,all you have to do is to "purchase a domain name and a host". Dont worry it can be done for free too. Domin name is the name (the address) through which a person can view your website. freenom.com is a website where i got a domain name. It is not sure that you will get the exact domain name you wanted. You can check the availability for the name you wished for but to purchase the domain you have to create an account in freenom. You have to pay to get a .com site but you will get other free options like .ml .tk .cf .ga  etc.You have to provide your name address and other details to purchase the domain , but this not the end.


GETTING HOST

Purchasing a domain is not the end , you have to get a host to upload and store your html data. 000Webhost is a website where you can login and use the host for free.All you have to do is to create an account and upload your data into the file manager. The main page of your website should be stored as index.html , 000webhost will automatically detect this page as the front page. You will be provided with a default domain name when you create an account in 000webhost , this domain name will be in the form of youraccountname.000webhostapp.com.You can view your webpage from this default url. 000webhost displays a banner at the bottom of your page which can be removed only after paying , but  that dosent look bad or disturbing to the viewers.


CONNECTION

Purchasing a domain or creating a host account is not enough , the main part is connecting the domain and the webhost. To do that you have to click view details in your webpage name in 000webhost and you can find two nameservers in the details screen. copy these name servers and paste it in freenom domain .To do that select services - my domain -(select your domain) click manage domain - management tools - nameservers - (change to custom nameservers) - paste the nameservers from 000webhost and click save changes.Since it is a free domain, changes will  saved slowly and there are chances that the freenom will display error when you save the nameserver , but this is all because of the slow process of freenom servers. After saving in freenom you have to go to 000webhost account and park your domain there. To park your domain you have to click set webaddress - use my own domain -enter the domain you purchased in freenom and click park domain - after the domain is parked succesfully you have to select the parked domain and click link domain.This links the freenom domain and the webhost , now you will be able to access your webpage with your custom domain name.
