  9. There were 500 registered attendees with 150 on the waiting listing. Livestream was available for those unable to attend. Being in the company of such a diverse group of people is impressive and fascinating to see the difference in ages of all those on this path. WordCamp satisfy the geek in me. The Business focus on Sunday was a nice surprise with a lot of insight into the insides of other businesses. The questions and awareness each went through to come out the other side. Fantastic!

How to Transfer Domain Name

Posted on September 14, 2012 by Web Designer #1

Web Design Tips: Do things in order

Transferring a domain name is not difficult when you follow the steps in order. Each part must be done before the next part to have it go smoothly.

1Freelance How to Transfer Domain Name

Currently transferring all domain names except host name (free for life) to a new server host for the name. The files will remain on the main host but the name and routing will be elsewhere. Why? It is cheaper. The first year I transfer, it is $10 for the next year including privacy. Renewing it will cost $15 unless they have a sale.

On my current host Bluehost it would cost me $10 to renew the name and another $10 for the privacy setting. Years ago I had WSMDomains for my domain names with my information on geocities a free site. When geocities went away, I moved to hosted websites. What I do like about Bluehost is you can have several domains under the contract of one host.

1. Check your contact on your site so when an email is sent it is sent to you and not the host. Change to your email

2. Is the privacy enabled? It will need to be Paused so the receiving host can read the information.

3. Pause Privacy

4. Unlock your domain name so it can be transferred to new host

3unlocked How to Transfer Domain Name5. Now your domain name should be unlocked and privacy paused

6. Go to WSMDomains and buy domain name service. If you have not opened an account, do that now. My cart shows I bought domain forwarding, domain manager, and privacy for $10.

4transfer2WSM How to Transfer Domain Name7. Now check your emails for a transfer request from WSMDomain AND another email for Transfer Confirmation Form READ these completely and follow them – You may have to wait for the emails.

You will have to click a link in the email to get the authorization page. You will need the EPP code from Bluehost in the next step.

8a. Go back to Bluehost and click the tab for Transfer EPP code to Authorize WSMDomain – Copy and past the code in the Web page that opened from link in email AND then notice in the process, you must approve the transfer. You may have to wait for the approval screen – Patience

8b. Go back to Bluehost – click the Transfer tab and Approve  the transfer

5TransferApproval How to Transfer Domain Name7ConfirmedTransfer How to Transfer Domain Name9. Go back to Bluehost check all the tabs. Name servers are still on Bluehost and those are the ones WSM Domains will use to direct your domain name back to your host. Bluehost no longer owns the domain name.

9Capture How to Transfer Domain Name

10 WSM Domains will show the Domain Name is in progress. Once everything completes you should get emails from both hosts.

Important: The most important part is patience and following the sequence of moving from one host to the other host.

  • Make sure the your email is there
  • Unlock
  • Pause Privacy
  • Start the transfer
  • The EPP code is the authorization code to transfer.
  • Wait for the email telling you the next steps and what to do next.
  • Everything transfers in minutes but the confirmation may take a little longer.
  • Your website will work without interruption

How to Install WordPress on hosted site

Posted on June 20, 2012 by Web Designer #1

Web Design Tips: Create a Blog Website Step by Step

We are going to install WordPress on Bluehost into our new Addon Domain Directory. Some people like having another sub-directory called blog but I have decided to treat this as a Website for credibility. Therefore I am leaving out the word Blog in the URL by not having a directory for Blog.

Step 1: Go to your Cpanel scroll down to WordPress – Click

7405451074 2eecfb5e01 o How to Install WordPress on hosted site

Step 2: Click Install

7405451042 c619a54c93 o How to Install WordPress on hosted site

Step 3: Fill in Preferences

Stable Version of WordPress, URL for your WordPress Site is your Domain name and should be in the drop down menu, Un-Check boxes, Read Terms

7405450858 ce9fab94aa o How to Install WordPress on hosted site

Step 4: Important Change username from Admin to unique name

Check boxes:

The admin name is default and the biggest way hackers get into new WordPress sites because they were not changed. Pick a useful name and unique strong password which you will be using to sign into your WordPress Website

Give your site a name

Leave the Automatically create a database checked

Step 5: Log into your website with URL/wp-admin/

Now you can set up your site. Pick your theme. Add Plugins. Add Users who can log in.

More on setup will be covered in another Posting.

Step 6: Change password for admin user if you forgot to change user name

7405450588 173f4c0040 o How to Install WordPress on hosted site

Step 7: Add another User and assign it admin authority

Use this user id when logging in, instead of admin. I do not believe the admin id can be deleted if you installed WordPress with that id. I tried. I uninstalled and reinstalled with a unique id to make sure it was safe. I thought on my other sites I was able to delete admin once I added New User with Admin authority.

When you put the user in, make sure to give them Admin authority and an email address where they will receive information on their id

Step 8: Bring up your site in your browser by entering your URL

Put your URL in the address field of the your Browser to see your new site.

The default theme comes up but you can see your site. Hooray! Woot Woot Exciting!
