How to Publish a Website OnlineIn Feburary 2016 19,
In Feburary 2016 19,
Purchase a domain name. Before you can even begin thinking about a publishing a website, you're going to want to have a domain name. Coming up with a good domain name can be a challenge as many of the best names are already taken. The key to selecting a good domain name is to be creative and try to find something catchy and easy to remember while still representing your website. You can search for available domain names on websites such as GoDaddy and Network Solutions, among many others. Domain names can be purchased for varying amounts of time ranging from one year to life.
Purchase a hosting plan. Once you've picked out your domain name, you'll need to decide what type of hosting plan you need. Your hosting will include how much web space your site will have, how much data transfer your site will be capable of providing, how many visitors can be on the site at one time, and how many e-mail addresses your site will have, among many other features.
Create your website. If you are new to website creation, many hosting companies offer programs that will assist you. These programs will basically let you enter everything in plain text and convert it all to HTML. This is often referred to as 'What you see is what you get.' These programs will also let you easily drop in photos and other documents. If you don't need assistance, you can use any of the various editing programs that are on the market.
Publish your site. Now that your website is created, you can publish your site simply by uploading what you have created directly into the root file of your web-hosting space. Your host will have complete instructions on how to publish to the root file.

How to Transfer a Domain to GodaddyIn Feburary 2016 17,
In Feburary 2016 17,
Before you can actually transfer your domain to GoDaddy, first you need to prepare it. Visit the Whois database (link in Resources) and verify that the email address associated with your domain is correct. This is the email address GoDaddy uses to communicate with you during the transfer process. If the email address is listed as private on the Whois database, contact your current registrar to cancel the private registration. The email address must be publicly viewable on Whois before you can proceed. [ref 1]
Unlocking the Domain and Obtaining the Authorization Code
Once you’ve verified that the email address is correct and public, contact the current registrar to ask them to unlock your domain. The domain must be unlocked by the current registrar before it can be transferred to GoDaddy. You also need to obtain an authorization code from the current registrar. Depending on your registrar, this code may also referred to as a transfer key or an EPP code.
Transferring the Domain to GoDaddy
After you’ve unlocked the domain and obtained the transfer authorization code, visit the GoDaddy website and purchase the domain name transfer (link in Resources). Log in to the GoDaddy Account Manager after the purchase is complete and click “Launch” next to the Domains heading. Select “Transfers,” click “Authorize transfer” and then click “Add now.” Enter the transaction ID and security code in the provided fields and then click “Add.” The transaction ID and security code were sent to your email by GoDaddy when you purchased the domain transfer. Next, select the “Basic” tab and enter the authorization code you obtained from the current registrar of the domain. Click “I authorize the transfer,” choose “Finish” and then click “OK.”
Restrictions and Checking the Progress of Your Transfer
Some domain names require a few additional steps before they can be transferred. UK domains, for example, require that you contact the current registrar and request an IPS tag change. If you’re attempting to transfer a foreign top-level domain, consult your current registrar to determine whether additional arrangements need to be made with them before the transfer can go through.Once you complete the transfer request, monitor the status of the transfer through the GoDaddy Account Manager. Log in to your account and select “Domain Management” on the Domains menu. Select “Transfers” to view the status of your transfer.

How to Create a Multipage WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 16,
In Feburary 2016 16,
Decide what pages your website should actually have. Starting out with a plan will save plenty of time later. For example, a basic website might consist of three pages: a homepage, an 'About' page, and a photo gallery.
Open a text editor such as Notepad (in Windows) or TextEdit (on a Mac) and create a new file for each page you plan on including. When saving each file, make sure to save them with a '.html' extension, and name your homepage 'index.' So using the above example, you would create three pages: 'index.html,' 'about.html,' and 'gallery.html.'
Think of a domain name ('example.com') to name your site. Come up with something easy to remember, as brief as possible, and spelled correctly.
Sign up for a web hosting plan. Since this is a very basic site, you won't need to pay for anything fancy, and in fact you can get a hosting plan for free from sites such as FreeHostia (see Resources). When signing up, you'll be able to register your domain name, which should cost about $10 for a year.
Log into the hosting control panel that your web host provided you after you signed up. Inside, there should be a 'File Manager' section. Open it, and look for a folder either named 'public_html' or named after your domain. Upload all your HTML files inside it.
Open a new browser window and type in your domain name in the address bar. The page that's automatically displayed will be 'index.html,' and you can reach your other pages by going to example.com/about.html, example.com/gallery.html, and so on.Of course, unless you've added something to each page, they're blank. To actually fill your pages with content, you'll need to write some HTML code, which is the basic language of the web and very easy to learn (see Resources for free HTML tutorials).
