1
00:00:00,150 --> 00:00:04,630
OK, so let's talk about the importance of having a website and a blog.

2
00:00:04,650 --> 00:00:09,270
So here's the thing with having a website, what is going to do for you?

3
00:00:09,270 --> 00:00:13,410
It's going to add extra credibility to your personal brand.

4
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:19,710
Just think about when a potential employer looks you up on Google, when they look you up to see, you

5
00:00:19,710 --> 00:00:26,130
know, what kind of activity you have online, if they're able to find either your website for yourself

6
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:29,370
or maybe for a brand for your business or whatever that may be.

7
00:00:29,370 --> 00:00:29,700
Right.

8
00:00:30,180 --> 00:00:34,760
Then that's going to play a huge factor in you being able to differentiate yourself.

9
00:00:35,160 --> 00:00:41,490
And even if you just have a simple website there where you're just posting, you know, blog topics,

10
00:00:41,790 --> 00:00:47,970
blog content, or maybe some, you know, different news articles that you have, you know, maybe shared

11
00:00:47,970 --> 00:00:50,520
from different platforms, whatever that may be.

12
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:50,900
Right.

13
00:00:51,090 --> 00:00:53,640
Having a website is better than having no website.

14
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,460
And all you really need is about twenty dollars.

15
00:00:56,940 --> 00:01:01,080
So you have ten dollars for a domain, five dollars a month for hosting.

16
00:01:01,350 --> 00:01:02,820
WordPress is for free.

17
00:01:03,210 --> 00:01:09,560
And the SSL certificate is about I think it's free for one year and then it's about ten dollars a year.

18
00:01:09,570 --> 00:01:11,820
So very inexpensive.

19
00:01:11,820 --> 00:01:14,160
WordPress has a bunch of free templates.

20
00:01:14,190 --> 00:01:19,470
You can easily set it up within a couple hours and you have a website that's ready to start blogging

21
00:01:20,130 --> 00:01:25,230
and then you can also purchase a website template theme from the individual market.

22
00:01:25,230 --> 00:01:31,110
And I'll show you here some examples that you can actually look through and find for the cyber security

23
00:01:31,110 --> 00:01:36,570
space, if that's what you want to focus on primarily, or if you want to just have like a simple blog

24
00:01:36,570 --> 00:01:40,400
about yourself for personal branding, you can do that as well.

25
00:01:41,070 --> 00:01:43,170
And so then you can go to fibre.

26
00:01:43,170 --> 00:01:49,020
Let's say you buy a website template theme off the individual market for twenty five dollars, thirty

27
00:01:49,020 --> 00:01:50,490
dollars or whatever that may be.

28
00:01:50,940 --> 00:01:56,940
You can go to five and then pay them ten to twenty dollars to have a template installed as a demo.

29
00:01:57,300 --> 00:02:00,990
And we'll walk through some of those vendors here in a moment as well.

30
00:02:01,450 --> 00:02:06,900
And one of the biggest things that a blog allows you to do is it allows you to write content, write

31
00:02:06,900 --> 00:02:12,630
your different thoughts, opinions on the cybersecurity topics, write ethical hacking topics, and

32
00:02:12,630 --> 00:02:15,120
it also shows your credibility and expertise.

33
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:15,810
So your visitor.

34
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:21,900
So just imagine you go in for a job interview and, you know, you submit your application and they

35
00:02:21,900 --> 00:02:24,300
have, you know, four to five different applicants.

36
00:02:24,300 --> 00:02:29,520
But then you're the only one that has a website, a blog, and the employer looks you up on Google and

37
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,540
finds you find your social media profiles are active in everything.

38
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:39,480
Think about how much that's going to play a factor in you being able to get that job right, get that

39
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,440
position because you've set yourself apart from the competition.

40
00:02:43,740 --> 00:02:49,860
I'm going to show you some of the options there, what you want to get as far as the domain, the hosting

41
00:02:50,070 --> 00:02:51,810
and then the SSL.

42
00:02:51,810 --> 00:02:54,900
And then we're also going to walk through the individual market.

43
00:02:54,900 --> 00:03:00,300
I'm going to show you some themes and then I'm going to show you on Fiverr an example.

44
00:03:00,300 --> 00:03:04,650
There is for some different gigs that you can get for ten dollars.

45
00:03:04,650 --> 00:03:08,370
Twenty dollars for them to install these templates as the demo.

46
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,280
OK, so let's head on over to my computer now.

47
00:03:11,460 --> 00:03:14,570
OK, so let's look at the name Cheap Dotcom here.

48
00:03:15,060 --> 00:03:20,750
This is what I recommend for if you're starting a website, very inexpensive to have great support.

49
00:03:21,060 --> 00:03:24,450
So let's go ahead and look at a domain here.

50
00:03:24,450 --> 00:03:31,560
So let's say you wanted to look for my cyber dot com, just nice and simple there.

51
00:03:32,580 --> 00:03:39,750
OK, so this is not available, but let's say if we wanted to do like X, Y, Z, I would recommend

52
00:03:39,750 --> 00:03:42,950
AdCom for whatever reason is is not available.

53
00:03:43,470 --> 00:03:44,520
But we wanted to buy this.

54
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,710
We would add to CART, we would go ahead and proceed.

55
00:03:46,980 --> 00:03:50,790
And then nice and simple write very simple.

56
00:03:50,940 --> 00:03:55,890
And then for hosting, we want to go to shared hosting the domain should not cost it any more than ten

57
00:03:55,890 --> 00:03:56,300
dollars.

58
00:03:56,310 --> 00:04:00,320
OK, for the actual hosting here you can go yearly or you can go monthly.

59
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:02,460
So let's go to monthly here.

60
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:08,730
And the one I have is the four eighty eight months or five dollars pretty much a month.

61
00:04:08,730 --> 00:04:09,050
Right.

62
00:04:09,300 --> 00:04:15,090
You can use this right here and get started and they'll give you an entire back and see panel where

63
00:04:15,090 --> 00:04:22,920
you can install WordPress, install the SSL certificate as well, because I believe the domains come

64
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:31,260
with one free year of automatic SSL, OK, and so it's very easy and simple to walk through and install.

65
00:04:31,500 --> 00:04:38,160
They can even install WordPress for you and install the website for you if you are having some trouble.

66
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:42,450
All you had to do is contact their support and their support is fantastic.

67
00:04:42,450 --> 00:04:43,370
I highly recommend.

68
00:04:43,830 --> 00:04:46,230
So those are the things you're going to need.

69
00:04:46,230 --> 00:04:47,790
You're going to need a domain.

70
00:04:48,300 --> 00:04:49,680
You're going to need some hosting.

71
00:04:49,890 --> 00:04:56,190
And I would also recommend that you sign up for G suite as well if you want to have like at your company

72
00:04:56,190 --> 00:04:57,120
name, Dotcom.

73
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:57,440
Right.

74
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:02,070
So let's say you were to buy my cybersecurity biz dotcom.

75
00:05:02,310 --> 00:05:06,060
You want to have an email address that's associated with that, right?

76
00:05:06,060 --> 00:05:09,210
Go to G-suit here and go right here.

77
00:05:09,210 --> 00:05:13,020
I think it's like five dollars a month and it allows you to have email.

78
00:05:13,050 --> 00:05:13,830
Let's go over here.

79
00:05:13,830 --> 00:05:14,370
Pricing.

80
00:05:14,670 --> 00:05:15,870
So six dollars a month.

81
00:05:15,870 --> 00:05:16,650
This is all you need.

82
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,540
And it's Gmail for your business.

83
00:05:18,540 --> 00:05:19,680
You get a calendar.

84
00:05:20,280 --> 00:05:21,570
Thirty gigs of space.

85
00:05:21,570 --> 00:05:26,880
So very inexpensive and you can easily get the set up within an hour or so.

86
00:05:27,510 --> 00:05:34,380
And then they also would be able to help you out name cheap if you needed to set up the the back and

87
00:05:34,380 --> 00:05:38,610
name servers for this, DNS records for this as well.

88
00:05:38,610 --> 00:05:41,700
So name cheap will definitely help you out.

89
00:05:41,700 --> 00:05:42,720
Highly recommend them.

90
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:47,790
And if you're going to get that domain and the website, I highly recommend you get to G Suite.

91
00:05:47,830 --> 00:05:51,240
So now let's go over here to the embattle market.

92
00:05:51,570 --> 00:05:56,820
This is where you want to find different website themes and templates.

93
00:05:56,820 --> 00:06:03,210
OK, so let's go here to I believe it's the right here theme first.

94
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,540
And let's say you want to look for a cybersecurity theme.

95
00:06:06,540 --> 00:06:08,760
OK, so let's go like that right there.

96
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:15,620
And we can find some here already that are pretty much done and we can set up for ourselves.

97
00:06:15,620 --> 00:06:18,710
So let's see here, this one right there.

98
00:06:21,410 --> 00:06:24,230
Here at the very top and this check these out.

99
00:06:26,020 --> 00:06:28,690
So we have this one right here, we're going to have a live preview.

100
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:36,590
And so they already have this entire website, essentially the theme laid out, so all we would need

101
00:06:36,590 --> 00:06:39,920
to do is come in here and change out this information with our own.

102
00:06:40,250 --> 00:06:43,490
And so these guys have different versions of this template here.

103
00:06:43,980 --> 00:06:48,860
So if you want is something like this something like this right here or maybe like this right here,

104
00:06:49,190 --> 00:06:51,800
it's just a different layout structure, right.

105
00:06:52,750 --> 00:06:57,080
And so something like this, I mean, these are fantastic looking websites, right?

106
00:06:57,100 --> 00:06:59,310
They're pretty much done for you.

107
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,170
You just got to change out your information like this one here.

108
00:07:04,380 --> 00:07:11,070
Cyber security and complete I.T. solutions get started and then these pull up here, deployment and

109
00:07:11,070 --> 00:07:13,400
migration management.

110
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:14,590
OK, great.

111
00:07:14,970 --> 00:07:16,750
And then this one here looks great.

112
00:07:16,770 --> 00:07:22,110
I like this drawing here, this little vector you see here, all the services.

113
00:07:22,110 --> 00:07:23,910
And this is more for like a company.

114
00:07:24,630 --> 00:07:31,380
But let's say if you even wanted to do, like, your own personal company for yourself, maybe you had,

115
00:07:31,380 --> 00:07:36,180
like John Smith, Cybersecurity Consulting or John Schmidt Consulting.

116
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:37,530
You can do that as well.

117
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:38,300
Right.

118
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:44,760
So that's just something to keep an eye on and to look at as far as the availability of these types

119
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:53,100
of websites for your own brand or if you want to do something even just simple, like a blog, you can

120
00:07:53,100 --> 00:07:53,820
do that as well.

121
00:07:54,390 --> 00:07:57,920
So these are more just for like maybe to be kind of businesses.

122
00:07:58,680 --> 00:07:59,810
So this is more here.

123
00:07:59,820 --> 00:08:04,140
Let's see if we have one like for like a individual person.

124
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:11,690
Your I.T. security, yeah, so a lot of these are for like businesses and let's even see this one right

125
00:08:11,690 --> 00:08:12,070
here.

126
00:08:13,090 --> 00:08:18,730
Depending the route that you take, if you want to go on the personal branding or the you want to start

127
00:08:18,730 --> 00:08:20,160
an actual company, right.

128
00:08:20,290 --> 00:08:21,460
That's going to be different.

129
00:08:23,260 --> 00:08:24,370
OK, so.

130
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,370
So if you want to like a simple blog or even go back over here.

131
00:08:35,580 --> 00:08:42,690
And go to WordPress, and so if you want to just like a simple blog, you know, you can do that as

132
00:08:42,690 --> 00:08:43,050
well.

133
00:08:43,710 --> 00:08:45,900
Let me see if we can break this down even further,

134
00:08:49,260 --> 00:08:55,380
maybe like a business blog or maybe even if you wanted to look at, like a consultant here.

135
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,890
Let's look at this one right here, a guru blog.

136
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:00,470
There we go.

137
00:09:02,620 --> 00:09:07,020
OK, so this is a simple little blog here, OK?

138
00:09:07,870 --> 00:09:14,230
And then let's even go back over here and let's go to the corporate.

139
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:21,430
Yeah, I mean, so you would need to go in here, spend some time looking for, you know, a simple

140
00:09:21,430 --> 00:09:28,780
blog, or if you want to have, like more of a business kind of website, you can go in here and find

141
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:34,570
a very simple type of blog, website, and then you will go over here to fiber.

142
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:41,020
And just like with these, you look at people over here, you buy this for seventeen dollars.

143
00:09:41,020 --> 00:09:41,310
Right.

144
00:09:41,620 --> 00:09:45,390
And then what's going to come with it is the install file.

145
00:09:45,510 --> 00:09:48,310
OK, and everything's going to be fully responsive here.

146
00:09:48,670 --> 00:09:55,180
And what you want to do is take the files that you get from here and go to fiber and have one of these

147
00:09:55,180 --> 00:09:58,420
guys here install it as a demo for you.

148
00:09:58,630 --> 00:10:00,730
And it's like 10, 20 dollars if that.

149
00:10:01,060 --> 00:10:03,760
Let's look at we want top rated Sillars.

150
00:10:06,150 --> 00:10:12,870
OK, I will install your Magento theme, I will install WordPress theme as your demo theme and this

151
00:10:12,870 --> 00:10:13,740
one right here.

152
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,790
Let's see our customized.

153
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:23,190
We don't want any customizations, we just want the we want to have it be like a demo, right.

154
00:10:24,130 --> 00:10:30,330
So these ones right here, this one right here, will install the WordPress theme like a demo, right?

155
00:10:30,820 --> 00:10:33,330
And then we can just change out the information on our own.

156
00:10:34,030 --> 00:10:35,350
Twenty five dollars.

157
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:36,990
Let's go here.

158
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,000
Ten dollars WordPress installation.

159
00:10:40,150 --> 00:10:44,740
So this guy here will install the WordPress database creation theme installation.

160
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:51,550
Or you can just get a simple theme installation from, you know, to get it like the demo, right,

161
00:10:51,790 --> 00:10:52,540
for ten dollars.

162
00:10:52,540 --> 00:10:58,260
So that's going to be the options here that you have for setting up a website.

163
