Hello there,

Right now for a totally ‘noob’ question.

I’ve finished building my website using the wordpress dashboard and Syahir’s great theme & I want to get it its own domain and have it go live so others can access it.

Is this a hard process? Is there any tutorials for doing this (ones that somebody who isn’t a programmer could understand if possible)?

And Just 1 more question. Is it possible to still edit the website once it’s gone up?

Thanks in advance.

Erm..it depends on how experienced you are, really. Publishing a website live can be trivial if you’ve done it before, but if this is your first time, it can probably be a bit confusing.

There’s a series of steps that you need to take to publish a website. Generally, this is what you have to do:

1. Subscribe to a web server account and register a domain name

2. Upload all the WordPress files to the server

3. Transfer the WordPress database from your local server to the web server

And yes, it is still possible to edit the website once it’s up.
