How To Setup Your Niche PLR Blog
Here’s a complete set of step by step videos that shows you exactly how to setup your niche PLR Blog. This is the next best thing to me coming to your house and showing you how to do it myself!<–more–>
1. REGISTER A DOMAIN NAME
Ok, I don’t think I need to do a video for this, do I? Just go to your favorite registrar and register a domain name related to your niche. (I suggest you use namecheap.com because one of the videos in this series shows you how to change DNS at namecheap)
2. GET HOSTING
Again, I’m pretty sure you can handle this one without a video. If you don’t have hosting already, I recommend HOSTGATOR (Yes, that IS my affiliate link but you don’t have to use it, you can just go to hostgator.com). I suggest you get the “baby” account because you will be able to host unlimited domains for only $7.99 a month. Can’t get a much better deal than that!
3. CHANGING THE DNS ON YOUR DOMAIN
Once you have your hosting and domain name, you need to point the domain to your server. Your hosting company should have sent you an email with your NAME SERVERS listed in it (if you don’t have that, then just contact support and they can tell you what these are). If you have purchases the domain and the hosting at the same place, then they probably have already done this for you.
You need to go into your account where you registered the domain and change the Domain Name Server setup. The video below shows you how to do that at Namecheap.

NOTE: Some of the newer blogs have a larger photo gallery, so you will need to use a different gallery width and gallery height. For the Pet Insurance Blog, you will want to use a width of 920 and height of 300.
