This process makes it easier for beginners to start a website for free.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-blockquote uagb-block-92ba2cfd uagb-blockquote__skin-border uagb-blockquote__stack-img-none\"><blockquote class=\"uagb-blockquote\"><div class=\"uagb-blockquote__content\">&#8220;Choosing fast hosting solution is absolutely critical to the success of your business site, because if your WordPress website loads slowly you will suffer from high bounce rate and lower search engine rankings, lower conversion rates and lower profits&#8221;<\/div><footer><div class=\"uagb-blockquote__author-wrap uagb-blockquote__author-at-left\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Matthew-Woodward-searchlogistics-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"40\" height=\"40\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><cite class=\"uagb-blockquote__author\">Matthew Woodward<br>Director of Searchlogistics <\/cite><\/div><\/footer><\/blockquote><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-columns rounddiv gb-layout-columns-1 one-column\"><div class=\"gb-layout-column-wrap gb-block-layout-column-gap-2 gb-is-responsive-column\"><div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-column gb-block-layout-column\"><div class=\"gb-block-layout-column-inner\" style=\"padding:5%\"><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-larger-font-size\">What are the best web hosting providers?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Here is a list of cheapest to fastest web hosting providers<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table nicetable has-small-font-size\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Hosting<\/th><th>Why?<\/th><th>Price<\/th><th>Button<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hostinger-Logo.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/td><td>Cheapest<\/td><td>$2.99\/mo<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Save 78%<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/GoDaddy-logo-1024x210.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/td><td>Free domain<\/td><td>$6.99\/mo<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/godaddy.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Save 50%<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/cloudways-logo-1024x234.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/td><td>Fastest<\/td><td>$14.00\/mo<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cloudways.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Buy now<\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cloudways.com\/en\/pricing.php\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.cloudways.com\/en\/pricing.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cloudways<\/a> focus solely on providing the fastest hosting service and hence do no offer domain registration.

It has more than 40% market share due to its versatility, extensive customization options, and the robust plugin ecosystem it offers. <\/p>\n\n<p>Website builders are a user-friendly option for starting a website, especially if you are a beginner. The idea behind them is to eliminate the need for coding, which can be challenging for individuals managing their sites. As a result, most website builders offer a drag-and-drop interface that allows you to easily change every aspect of the site.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Tip: <\/strong>You can also transform WordPress into drag and-drop interface, which we will cover later.<\/p>\n\n<p>Overall both have their advantages and disadvantages, and the choice between them depends on your specific needs, preferences and budget.<\/p>\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s a comparison of WordPress and website builders, along with a pros and cons:<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table rounddiv has-small-font-size\"><table><thead><tr><th>Aspect<\/th><th>WordPress<\/th><th>Website Builders<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Ease of Use<\/td><td>Moderate to High<\/td><td>Easy<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Customization<\/td><td>Highly Customizable<\/td><td>Limited Customization<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Cost<\/td><td>Variable (Hosting + Themes\/Plugins)<\/td><td>Expensive monthly Subscription<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Content Control<\/td><td>Full Control<\/td><td>Limited Control<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>SEO-Friendly<\/td><td>Yes, with Plugins<\/td><td>Varies<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Scalability<\/td><td>Highly Scalable<\/td><td>Limited for Complex Websites<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Maintenance<\/td><td>Requires Manual Maintenance<\/td><td>Platform Handles Maintenance<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Support<\/td><td>Community + Plugins Support<\/td><td>Platform Customer Support<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Security<\/td><td>Vulnerable Without Proper Measures<\/td><td>Built-in Security Measures<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Learning Curve<\/td><td>Steeper Learning Curve<\/td><td>Minimal Learning Curve<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Template Options<\/td><td>Large Amount <\/td><td>Limited <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Performance<\/td><td>Very High<\/td><td>Low\/Medium Performance<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n<p>In summary, website builders, are beginner-friendly and handle many aspects of website management for you but offer limited customization and hence we do not recommend them.<\/p>\n\n<p>WordPress is a robust platform that offers greater flexibility and control but comes with a steeper learning curve and more responsibility for maintenance. But it requires different approach than we discuss here and hence we have separate article. Regardless here is the overview how to build a website with WordPress:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Choose a Domain and Hosting:<\/strong> Select a domain name that represents your business name, identity, and purpose.

By doing so, you will install WordPress on your server and make the site accessible on the internet.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Select a Theme:<\/strong> Choose a theme that aligns with your business goals and industry. These themes often have proper layouts and colors based on industry norms, helping you sell more of your services.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Customize and Add Content:<\/strong> You can change the theme layout and design by clicking &#8220;Appearance&#8221; in the dashboard.

This is why we recommend essential paid plugins.<\/p>\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s a list of must-have free and paid plugins to start your site:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Rankmath SEO (Free)<\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wordfence.com\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.wordfence.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wordfence Security<\/a> (Free)<\/li>\n\n<li>WooCommerce (Free)<\/li>\n\n<li>Payment (Free):<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Local: Paytrail, Klarna<\/li>\n\n<li>International: Paypal, Stripe &amp; WooCommerce Payment (new)<\/li><\/ul><\/li>\n\n<li>Astra (Free or paid)<\/li>\n\n<li>Elementor Pro (Free or paid)<\/li>\n\n<li>WP Rocket (Paid) &#8211; for speed optimization<\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wpml.org\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/wpml.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WPML<\/a> (Paid) &#8211; for adding a second language<\/li><\/ol>\n\n<p>Without paid plugins, your site will have significant limitations in terms of features, designs, and layout, making site development slow and often impossible without coding skills. <\/p>\n\n<p>Alternatively, you can consider our affordable service, where we install your chosen theme and include our agency license for WP Rocket, Astra Pro, Elementor Pro, and WPML at no extra cost to you. Our service pays for itself and saves you plugin costs for years to come.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here are the steps to install WordPress plugins:<\/h4>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Log in to Your WordPress Dashboard:<\/strong> Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard using your username and password.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Access the Plugin Section:<\/strong> In the WordPress dashboard, find the &#8220;Plugins&#8221; option on the left-hand menu. Click on it to access the Plugins section.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Click on &#8220;Add New&#8221;:<\/strong> Within the Plugins section, click on the &#8220;Add New&#8221; button at the top of the page. This will take you to the plugin installation page.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Search for a Plugin:<\/strong> You can search for a plugin by entering its name or a relevant keyword in the search bar. WordPress will display a list of matching plugins.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Select a Plugin:<\/strong> Once you find a plugin you want to install, click the &#8220;Install Now&#8221; button next to it.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Browse the Plugin Repository:<\/strong> You can also browse and explore the WordPress Plugin Repository by clicking on &#8220;Featured,&#8221; &#8220;Popular,&#8221; &#8220;Recommended,&#8221; or &#8220;Favorites&#8221; to discover plugins.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Activate the Plugin:<\/strong> After the plugin is installed, the &#8220;Install Now&#8221; button will change to &#8220;Activate.&#8221; Click the &#8220;Activate&#8221; button to enable the plugin on your site.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n<p>To install plugins with website builders, typically you can access the builder&#8217;s plugin or app store. Search for the desired functionality or plugin name. Click to install and activate the plugin.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Installing Elementor Plugin<\/h3>\n\n<p>If you choose the Astra theme and are not very technical, we recommend installing the <a href=\"https:\/\/elementor.com\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/elementor.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Elementor<\/a> plugin alongside and purchasing the pro add-ons. It transforms your site into drag-and-drop interface, allowing you to change every part of the pages. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>You have two options here: <\/strong>You could use the free version with limitations or purchase Elementor Pro or opt for our service, where you receive the pro license for free.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Adding E-commerce Functionality<\/h3>\n\n<p>If you sell products online, you need to add e-commerce functionality to your site.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">With Page Builders<\/h4>\n\n<p>Such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shopify.com\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.shopify.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shopify<\/a>, you get everything you need for starting to sell products online, including an optimized checkout, cart, and product categories.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">With WordPress<\/h4>\n\n<p>You need <a href=\"https:\/\/woocommerce.com\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/woocommerce.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WooCommerce<\/a>.

Most crucial aspects of a new website SEO is SEO-friendly URLs, permalinks and metadata.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Meta Data<\/h4>\n\n<p>In SEO, meta data plays a crucial role in helping search engines understand and rank your web pages or products. The two most important meta tags for SEO are the title tag and the meta description tag:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>The title tag<\/strong> is one of the most critical elements for SEO. It should be a concise, descriptive title that includes your primary keywords and accurately represents the page&#8217;s content. It can include your page&#8217;s main heading (H1) but can also be different.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>The meta description tag <\/strong>is a brief summary of your page&#8217;s content. It should be engaging, provide a compelling reason for users to click on your page in search results and quite short, up to 170 characters.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n<p>Fortunately, you don&#8217;t need to change HTML code because with RankMath you can change it easily. Follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Edit a Post or Page:<\/strong> Open the page you want to edit the meta title and description for.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Locate the Rank Math SEO Box:<\/strong> In the upper right corner of the post or page editor, you&#8217;ll find the Rank Math SEO box.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Edit the Meta Title and Description:<\/strong> Click on the &#8220;Edit Snippet&#8221; button, and then modify the title and description as needed.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Preview and Save:<\/strong> As you make changes, you can preview how your post or page will appear in search results. Once you&#8217;re satisfied, click the &#8220;Save&#8221; button to save your changes.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"926\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rankmaths-edit-meta-data-suc-as-title-permalinks-and-description-tab-926x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rankmaths-edit-meta-data-suc-as-title-permalinks-and-description-tab-926x1024.jpg 926w, https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rankmaths-edit-meta-data-suc-as-title-permalinks-and-description-tab-271x300.jpg 271w, https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rankmaths-edit-meta-data-suc-as-title-permalinks-and-description-tab-768x849.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rankmaths-edit-meta-data-suc-as-title-permalinks-and-description-tab-720x796.jpg 720w, https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rankmaths-edit-meta-data-suc-as-title-permalinks-and-description-tab.jpg 1348w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 926px) 100vw, 926px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>For products and categories, you can find similar settings by scrolling down to the section labeled &#8216;Rank Math SEO&#8217; below the editor.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEO-Friendly URLs<\/h4>\n\n<p>URLs are essential for making your site user and search engine-friendly. For instance, if you have an agency offering SEO, website development, and social media services.<\/p>\n\n<p>Here are examples of nice URLs for service pages:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>SEO Services:<\/strong> website.com\/seo<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Website Development:<\/strong> website.com\/development<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Social Media Marketing: <\/strong>website.com\/social-media<\/li><\/ul>\n\n<p>Similarly, if you add a blog teaching SEO to showcase your skills and knowledge, here are examples of nice URLs for blog posts:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Internal SEO: <\/strong>website.com\/learn\/seo\/internal<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>External SEO:<\/strong> website.com\/learn\/seo\/external<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Technical SEO:<\/strong> website.com\/learn\/seo\/technical<\/li><\/ul>\n\n<p>By using similar structures, you not only make your site user-friendly but also adhere to search engine guidelines for organized and coherent content.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Change permalink structure <\/h4>\n\n<p>Before publishing your site, you should modify the permalinks for your blog posts and products. <\/p>\n\n<p>The reason for this is that if you change permalinks later, your page&#8217;s URL will also change. And, it can take up to three months for search engines to crawl your old link, which may lead to duplicate content in the eyes of search engines.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Steps to Change Permalink Structure:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Navigate to Permalinks Settings:<\/strong> In the dashboard, go to &#8220;Settings&#8221; and select &#8220;Permalinks.&#8221;<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Choose a Custom Structure:<\/strong> In the Permalinks settings, you can choose between several common options or create a custom structure. To change the permalink structure for blog posts, select the &#8220;Custom Structure&#8221; option.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Define the Permalink Structure:<\/strong> Common variables include <code>%postname%<\/code> (for the post name), <code>%category%<\/code> (for the category) For example, using <code>\/blog\/%postname%\/<\/code> will include &#8220;blog&#8221; in the URL followed by the post name. Customize the structure to fit your preferences.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Save Changes:<\/strong> After defining your desired permalink structure, click the &#8220;Save Changes&#8221; button to update your settings. WordPress will automatically apply the new URL structure to your blog posts and categories.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"743\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/WordPress-dashbaord-permalinks-1024x743.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/WordPress-dashbaord-permalinks-1024x743.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/WordPress-dashbaord-permalinks-300x218.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/WordPress-dashbaord-permalinks-768x557.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/WordPress-dashbaord-permalinks-1536x1115.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/WordPress-dashbaord-permalinks-720x523.jpg 720w, https:\/\/wordpresskotisivutyritykselle.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/WordPress-dashbaord-permalinks.jpg 1805w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>Additional settings can be found within RankMath.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Change E-commerce product URL&#8217;s<\/h4>\n\n<p>To remove the &#8220;product-category&#8221; base from product category URLs with <a href=\"https:\/\/rankmath.com\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/rankmath.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">RankMath<\/a> but keep the category name (e.g., &#8220;food&#8221;), follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Access Rank Math Settings:<\/strong> In your WordPress dashboard, click on &#8220;Rank Math&#8221; in the left sidebar.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Edit the Permalink Settings:<\/strong> In the Rank Math settings, go to the &#8220;General Settings&#8221; section.
