  • You'll learn to get started with WordPress totally free. In this tutorial you'll learn to use InfinityFree to get free web hosting, then you will learn to install and setup WordPress.
    In part 2 of the video (Skip to part two here: @14:55) You'll learn how to add your own domain name to your InfinityFree hosting. This will allow you to use your own .com .net or anything you want. You can even try using a free domain from freenom.com too!
    Finally, this method allows you to use a free Cloudflare account to add SSL security to InfinityFree - this is a must to learn!
    Once you have your WordPress installed, there are lots of great things you can do to make an awesome website, check out the playlist for a complete beginner course here: • WordPress Blog Tutorial
    Free hosting is great for learning, but once you begin any serious project, you should look at getting some reliable and fast hosting, .e.g www.siteground.com/

    Hey man thanks a lot, i hit the like button. Just a question, when i open my domain i get this message:
    ''An Error Occurred
    . Services for this domain name have been disabled." with a fancy font and some vector art.
    When the site is not available yet it usually shows the advertisement as you said or something like ''this site cannot be reached". Is it normal?

    I changed my url from the free one to my custom one in wordpress before the simple SSL installed because I was getting errors so I thought it was because it was using the free domain and now I can't access wordpress because it says my custom domain isn't secure. Will this fix over time or will I need to do something to fix it? because I can't go through the SSL setup anymore. I don't think its because of the name servers because it updated and said complete on cloudflare. Any help is appreciated, thanks

      1. Point godaddy to infinityfree dns, 2. add the domain to Cloudflare, Cloudflare will automatically add infinity free dns 3. Change godaddy to Cloudflare name server - good luck, Alex

    • @IdeaSpot
      @IdeaSpot  4 роки тому +1

      ok,
      1) first step is set the freenom DNS setttings to point to the infinityfree servers.
      2) Wait until the website starts working with the freenom domain name (can take a wihle)
      3) Now go into cloudflare, and add the freenom domain name to your cloudflare account, cloudflare will give you new name servers to point to.
      4) Now you can go back to freenom and change the DNS to point to your cloudflare DNS. Just use the two that cloudflare gave you and leave the other three blank.
      Now, you should be able to use flexible SSL in cloudflare and get the padlock... hope it works

    • @IdeaSpot
      @IdeaSpot  4 роки тому

      Hi, just use the cloudflare 'flexible' option and then it should still work for free (You can actually use the method in this video in a similar way with godaddy) - you won't need to install a certificate on godaddy like that. This will give you the padlock icon, it's just not as secure as having a host certificate though.
      good luck
