Introduction
Two months ago, I mistakenly stumbled into a seminar where a Toyin Omotoso a
big Nigerian internet marketer was teaching “Where the money is and how to get
it”
That was the first time I heard the phrase “make money online” and I immediately
realized that this is an opportunity that could change my life forever.
"How on earth does someone 'make money online'" I wondered, as I am certain
many people too are wondering even now.
Well now, not only do I make money online, I taught other people how to make
money online too.
I created this course to help you make money online using web design and also
how to get paying clients.
First of all if you want to truly really "make money online" there are 3 things you
must get right from the word so you don't waste your time, money, energy and
effort.
Now let’s get started
What is a Blog?
A blog is a type of website where the content is presented in reverse chronologi -
cal order (newer content appear first). Blog content is often referred to as entries
or “blog posts”.
Blogs are typically run by an individual or a small group of people to present infor-
mation in a conversational style.
However, now there are tons of corporate blogs that produce a lot of informa-
tional and thought leadership style content.
A blog is a type of website that focuses mainly on written content, also known as
blog posts. In popular culture we most often hear about news blogs or celebrity
blog sites, but as you’ll see in this guide, you can start a successful blog on just
about any topic imaginable.
Bloggers often write from a personal perspective that allows them to connect di-
rectly with their readers.
In addition, most blogs also have a “comments” section where readers can corre-
spond with the blogger. Interacting with your readers in the comments section
helps to further the connection between the blogger and the reader.
This direct connection to the reader is one of the main benefits of starting a blog.
This connection allows you to interact and share ideas with other like-minded
people. It also allows you to build trust with your readers. Having the trust and
loyalty of your readers also opens up the door to making money from your blog,
which is something I will discuss later in this group
Domain name
Sub domain name
Hosting
Blog post
What is a domain name?
A domain name is your website name. A domain name is the address where Inter-
net users can access your website.
A domain name is used for finding and identifying computers on the Internet.
Computers use IP addresses, which are a series of number. However, it is difficult
for humans to remember strings of numbers.
Because of this, domain names were developed and used to identify entities on
the Internet rather than using IP addresses.
A domain name can be any combination of letters and numbers, and it can be
used in combination of the various domain name extensions, such as .com, .net
and more.
The domain name must be registered before you can use it. Every domain name is
unique. No two websites can have the same domain name. If someone types in
www.yourdomain.com, it will go to your website and no one else's.
The price of a domain name typically runs between $15-25 per year. With Web-
site.com, a professional domain name is included for free with all premium site
builder plans.
What is a subdomain name
A subdomain is an additional part to your main domain name. Subdomains are
created to organize and navigate to different sections of your website.
You can create multiple subdomains or child domains on your main domain.
For example: nikefashionstore.blogspot.com
What is Web hosting?
Web hosting is the place where all the files of your website live. It is like the home
of your website where it actually lives.
A good way to think about this is if the domain name was the address of your
house, then web hosting is the actual house that address points to. All websites
on the internet, need web hosting.
When someone enters your domain name in a browser, the domain name is
translated into the IP address of your web hosting company’s computer. This
computer contains your website’s files, and it sends those files back to the users’
browsers.
Web hosting companies specialize in storing and serving websites. They offer dif-
ferent types of hosting plans to their customers.
How Domain Names and Web Hosting are related?
Domain names and web hosting are two different services. However, they work
together to make websites possible.
Basically a domain name system is like a massive address book that is constantly
updated. Behind each domain name, there is an address of the web hosting ser-
vice storing the website’s files.
Without domain names, it will not be possible for people to find your website and
without web hosting you cannot build a website.
What are Blog posts?
These are basically contents you upload on your site to connect with your audi-
ence.
Example of blog posts
Articles
Music
Videos etc.

lier.
You are practicing without buying a domain or hosting plan. So it's all going to be

This is for you if you don't have money to buy a hosting plan for now.
The difference between this free plan and the paid plan is that in the free plan,
you are given a subdomain kind of website for example.
"Thenameofyourwebsite.unaux.com"
So to practice for free, you will use a site called 'profreehost.com'

How to get your first web design job;
This is what I normally tell my students, first you need to build up your portfolio as
web designer. It’s hard for anyone to give you jobs without seeing your past web
design jobs. So in order to overcome this obstacle, I will teach you a simple trick.
Meet your friends and family. Especially those who are into business already,
meet them and set out or present a proposal to them, tell them you will help
them build a website for their business for free. All they have to do is pay for the
domain and hosting.
Understand that you are doing this because you are building your portfolio so that
you can have something to show to them that this are you pass works. But if you
have the money and you have a business then you can use this knowledge and
create a website for yourself. I hope you get my whole point here.
