How to setup a WordPress blog instantly (in less than 5 minutes)?

Setting up your WordPress blog is now just a click away. Yes, you read it right! With Serverfellows, you can bid farewell to time consuming procedures and start your blog with super simple steps. For bloggers who haven’t heard of Serverfellows, it is one of the best platforms offering web hosting services. Along with this, it also allows you to create a WordPress blog with just one click by signing up on their website. Let’s learn how.

Go to the Serverfellows website and click on “SHARED HOSTING”. If you prefer wordpress hosting, click on WordPress Hosting and follow the below steps

Select the payment plan that is suitable to you from the options displayed viz. basic, plus and pro.

Insert the desired domain name and click ‘CONTINUE’. You can select an alternative domain name from the options displayed to you in case your domain name is unavailable. It is preferable to use the .com extension as it is the most popular one. If you already have a domain, you may click on other available options

If you want privacy protection, you may select the ID protection option below the domain. It is highly recommended to include ‘Domain Privacy Protection’ in your package as it keeps your personal details hidden, thus protecting you from unruly marketers.

Add the hosting plan you want to purchase and proceed to checkout

Do not forget to enter the PROMOCODE – DW50OFF to avail 50% on all the hosting plans

Next is to fill in the account information in the required fields. Enter the relevant details and go to the next section.

Next is to enter the billing information. This is needed to make the payment for the web hosting service depending on the type of plan selected.

These plans are not expensive and are worth the investment considering the value of services provided. Choose a suitable payment option and enter the required details.

Once you have successfully registered your details, you will need to create a password. Ideally, your password should be a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers and special characters. Make it stronger by entering at least 8 characters. Just click on the ‘Create your Password’ link to get directed to the password generator.
