Are you ready to embark on your website-building journey but unsure of where to start?

Back when I was in high school, I delved into HTML (HyperText Markup Language) classes to learn the ins and outs of website creation. It was like learning a whole new language just to bring your vision to life on the web. Even simple tasks like adjusting font size, color, or centering elements required a solid understanding of code.

My first encounter with a user interface was FrontPage, developed by Microsoft. For web hosting, I initially relied on 1&1 Internet (now Ionos), which offered a convenient drag-and-drop web builder. However, as their prices increased, I sought alternatives and eventually settled on Weebly. But then, even Weebly's pricing soared, and I found myself going from paying less than $100 per year to nearly $1,000 per year for managing my dozen websites.

In my quest for a reliable hosting provider, I extensively researched various factors such as uptime, cPanel versus hPanel, website loading speed, security, WordPress compatibility, support, storage capacity, Inodes, weekly backups, website builders, and pricing. I won't bore you with all the intricate details, but after careful consideration, I narrowed down my choices to Bluehost, HostGator, Dreamhost, SiteGround, and Hostinger. Ultimately, I opted for Hostinger because they met all my requirements and offered one of the most affordable packages. It felt like the best bang for my buck. If you're a beginner and unfamiliar with WordPress, Hostinger provides a user-friendly website builder that simplifies the process significantly. They even offer free classes, which I personally enrolled in and found quite valuable. And if you need more personalized assistance, they also offer one-on-one sessions.
