Hello Everyone,
Welcome to my third part of the series tutorial of “How to learn Web Development”. Reading the article topic and title you might have already been understood that in this part I’m going to show and discuss about how to buy domain and hosting before developing a website.
First of all let me clear to all of you that domain and hosting is the core and inseparable part of a website. So before learning web development, you must learn about domain and hosting and how to buy domain and hosting. Let’s take a look what is a domain and hosting.
Domain: A domain name is an identification string that defines a realm of administrative autonomy, authority or control within the Internet. Domain names are formed by the rules and procedures of the Domain Name System (DNS). Any name registered in the DNS is a domain name. Domain names can also be thought of as a location where certain information or activities can be found.
Domain names are used in various networking contexts and application-specific naming and addressing purposes. In general, a domain name represents an Internet Protocol (IP) resource, such as a personal computer used to access the Internet, a server computer hosting a web site, or the web site itself or any other service communicated via the Internet. In 2014, the number of active domains reached 271 million. (Source: Wikipedia)
Hosting: A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to make their website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server owned or leased for use by clients, as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for other servers located in their data center, called colocation, also known as Housing in Latin America or France. (Source: Wikipedia)
So, these are a short definition about domain and hosting and I hope you’ve understood that it’s not possible to run a website or a program on the internet or intranet without domain and hosting. And it’s a point to be noted that you can not purchase a domain and hosting service forever. You are only allowed to get domain and hosting, specially the domain for a lease. But you can buy the copyright of a domain name as long as you want. Now let’s see how to buy domain and hosting instantly.
Different people has different opinion about buying domain and hosting. Someone suggests some over rated and popular domain and hosting service provider company like Godaddy, Hostgator, bluehost and somany others. I also prefer such kind of prominent company to buy domain and hosting. But for some support and service reason sometime I suggest others to buy domain and hosting from a well known and trusted local company who are providing their level support to the customers. In my case, I always suggest NR Hosting to buy domain and hosting because of their great customer support and boundless services. Let’s see how to buy domain and hosting from NR Hosting in five minutes.
Step-1: First type www.nrhosting.com on the address bar of your web browser to visit the official website of NR Hosting. And take a quick look over all the package and plan of their services and decide which package is suitable and reasonable for you. One thing I’ve forget to mention that NR Hosting provides Cloud Hosting Services which is very rare. You may have a question that what is the benefit of Cloud Hosting? Well, it’s more flexible and secured than normal shared hosting. I will describe more about the comparison between normal hosting and Cloud Hosting later, if I get enough chance.
Step-2: From the main navigation menu of the website click on the “Domain” page as like the image bellow. Then it will redirect you to the domain checker page.
Step-3: You will find a search box on just center area of the domain page. In this search box, simply type the domain name you are looking for. Then click on the search button.
If your domain is available for registration a congratulations message will be shown up in green color. There will be also pop-up some new options bellow the search box. Click on the “Add to Cart” button from the right corner of the new appeared options list.
If you want to buy hosting or any other services as well, just click on the “View Cart” options from the top header menu. Or if you want to buy just a domain, click on the “Go to checkout” button from the appeared option list bellow the domain search bar. In my case I’m going View Cart page to continue my shopping.
Step-4: On the cart page, you will see your order summary and find a options called “Continue Shopping”. Click on this option and it will redirect you to the product selection page.
From the product selection page select your preferred hosting package and plan by clicking on the “Cloud Hosting” option.
Step-5: Now select your package and click on the “Order Now” button from the bottom of package description.
Step-6: Then it will redirect you a specified product selection page that you have already selected.
Now select the product again one by one and click on the “Go to checkout” option to complete your shopping.
Select some free maintenance and management services from the service provider if you want.
Step-7: You will need to full fill some required field with all your personal information and login id password. if you are not registered member of the service provider website.
Just simply enter your information and select the payment method to confirm your order.
Once every step done completely you will receive a confirmation email from the service provider with your account login information. Congratulations you have successfully purchased your new domain and hosting.
Note that you will get a domain verification link to verify that you are the real owner of this domain within next few minutes. You must have to verify your ownership of the domain by visiting to the verification link. If you miss it, you can not be able to use your domain or the domain will not be active at all.
So, these are the easy steps to buy domain and hosting from anywhere anytime. I hope now you don’t have any question about how to buy domain and hosting. Follow my all tutorials to know more about web development and many other technical topics. Thank you for reading this article. Goodbye.

Hello Everyone,
And welcome to my another episode about how to learn web development. In this part, I’ll share some useful and must needed resources to learn web development. As web development is a creative work, you will not get 100% guideline to complete a project. You’ll just find some knowledge base and realization stage guide line from any course or any tutorial. So you have to apply your own creativity using these knowledge to be a good web developer and later good to great web developer. Event I’ll not show you 100%. In-fact it’s not possible to transfer any kind of knowledge from a person to another. It’s not like a therapy, you know. So, let’s see what kind of resources is important for you and where to find these.
Meaning of Short Form (Tag): From my point of view application development field like website, software and game are the only three field where most of the things are described in tags. You will find all the sentences and words as short as possible. So first of all you need to understand the meaning of all kind of tag and short word meaning. For an example you will find three short form of sentences and word in a domain/url (Uniform Resource Locator).
See, I have already used a short form called “URL”. Anyway, in a domain you will find three short tags.
HTTP/HTTPS: Hyper Text Transfer Protocol/Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secured
WWW: World Wide Web
.COM: (Extension): Commerce/Company/Community/Computer (There are some difference of opinion for this name.)
So, hope you understand, how important it to know the full meaning of a short sentence or what does a word stand for.
Now there may have a question in your mind, “Where will I find the list containing such kind of tags meaning?”
It’s quite easy to find these kind of stuffs. You just need to use your searching skill on search engines like Google. just type some keywords or a sentence on the google search bar and hit on the search button. Then you will find thousands of reference relating your keywords. For an example, if you want to know the meaning of “www”, just type “What is the meaning of www” or “Full meaning of www” on your google search bar and hit on the search button. you will find a lot of answers about “www” google. Just consider the top rated site’s article as the best information and visit there. That’s it.
Note that Wikipedia is the best website to find any kind of information and everybody consider it as the most reliable encyclopedia. So always try to follow the Wikipedia reference.
Programming Languages/Codes: In my Introduction tutorial, I’ve mentioned that to learn web development you must learn programming/coding. Don’t you know really where to learn programming/coding? Alright, It’s not a problem. Programming/coding is a opensource subject to learn. So, don’t worry about it. Almost every programmer/coder prefers w3schools.com to learn and practice programming languages. You will find almost all the needed programming languages that you will need to know in w3schools.com. So, click on this link to visit w3schools.com and bookmark this link on your browser so, that you will able to find the link later. Beside w3schools.com there so many website in the internet to learn programming languages as well. So if you search for those sites on google you will find over thousands.
YouTube:YouTube is really a great platform to learn anything. I always appreciate YouTube to learn anything and suggest others to search for there required information on YouTube. I thing YouTube is a time saving and practical class room. So always try to search for any information on YouTube.
Content Marketplaces: As you are asking that how to learn web development, you must need to know about some virtual product (Template, Banner, Plugins etc.) marketplace, which is very useful and essential for every web developer. There are so many content marketplace in the internet but I always prefer, Envato Market. Here you can buy and sell any kind of web applications, designs, documents easily. themeforest and codecanyon are the sites of Envato Market which was specially established for web development purposes. They have some another concern like videohive, audiojungle, graphicriver, photodune and 3docean. Beside envato market, there are so many marketplace website for content as well like TemplateMonster, Creative Market and so on. I’ll try to write a separate article only about the content marketplace later.
So these are some valuable source for a beginner who want to know how to learn web development. If you are interested to learn web development, visit all of these sites I’ve mentioned above and learn the things that you need to improve your skill. From my next post I’ll start to show you how to develop a complete website using CMS. I’ll first use WordPress and after complete the full series of WordPress Website development I’ll switch to the following CMS Opencart, Magento, Prestashop, Joomla, Drupal and more other open source CMS.

As per my commitment, I’m now writing about how to learn web development. This is an introduction article. In this post I’ll share about what the basic and primary thing is needed to learn web development. I’m working as an web developer in various type of industrial and corporate field for couple of years. So, I’ll share all of the information, tips, tricks and techniques according to my own experience. So, let’s start.
Let me first tell about what is web development and how it works.
Definition: If I tell the internationally granted definition of Web Development, it will be like “Web development is a broad term for the work involved in developing a web site for the Internet (World Wide Web) or an intranet (a private network). Web development can range from developing the simplest static single page of plain text to the most complex web-based internet applications, electronic businesses, and social network services. A more comprehensive list of tasks to which web development commonly refers, may include web engineering, web design, web content development, client liaison, client-side/server-side scripting, web server and network security configuration, and e-commerce development.” (Source: Wikipedia)
Note that at the beginning of the definition it has already been said that Web Development is a broad term, so it can not be described in some sentences or pages about what web development actually is. Even in my case, it will need about a ten thousands words article to describe about web development. After that it will not be properly written. So this time we will not go for it elaborately.
Basic Requirements: To learn web development, first of all you have to meet some basic requirements.
English (Reading, Writing, Listening, Speaking)
Good Searching Sense on Search Engines (Google, Yahoo, AOL etc.)
This is some primary criteria that you must meet. After that there are huge thing that you should have to learn and know as well.
You may have a common question that every beginner often asks me. Is a programmer/coder a web developer?
My answer is “No”. Not all the programmer/coder are web developer but every web developer is a programmer/coder. Programming Languages are used in various purposes like web development, software development, game development. After learning programming languages different programmers involved their-selves in different field. So, is it clear? I hope so.
You may have an another question in your mind. Are Web Designing and Web Development same thing?
Again my answer is “No” Web Designing and Web Development are not the same thing. Web Design is the outer structures, color combinations and style of a website which can be design by anyone who have a designing idea. It can be designed using Photoshop, illustrator and any other graphic designing tools. In one word I will tell web design is the “Static Template” of a website.
On the other hand, web development is the system development process of a website from back-end to front-end using programming languages. Using the languages depend on which type of web application system and design you want to develop.
So these are some basic introduction about web development for today. I’ll start sharing the main tutorials about how to learn web development from next post secuelly. So stay connected with me and follow my every article if you really want to learn Web Development and take it as your profession. Thank you so much for reading this article spending your valuable time. Take care.
