Is Godaddy Good For Wordpress

  • I’m planing to build a new wordpress.org site myself with a new hosting company without a domain name as my main domain is hosted elsewhere. My aim is that after my new site is ready, I will replace my old site with my new one.

    I have been offered three ways by the new hosting company for this:
    – Using a Temporary URL.
    – Using a Subdomain.
    – Using the actual domain name and pointing it via your computer’s hosts file.

    Can anyone advise me which best way out of the above three should I select to design my site, so that I do not have to repent later on my decision?

Wordpress Website Hosting

Website

  • Anyone can get a free, very basic site at wordpress.com. If you want a professional website, one not at somesite.wordpress.com, you can also procure a domain name and then use the most used solution: wordpress.org or also use the commercial branch (review pricing).

    The third option (using your HOSTS file) is by far the best because it will allow you to build the new site without having to manually edit the database just prior to taking the site live.

    The downside is that you will not have access to your current site while the entry exists in your HOSTS file. If you can develop the new site on a system that doesn’t need access to the old site, then this is not a problem. Otherwise you will be editing the HOSTS file on a regular basis until your new site is complete.

    Hi,

    based on my experience as i develop wordpress sites on my own server before sending it over to clients (of course this is to make sure i get paid first before sending over source file).

    these 2 option can work:

    – Using a Temporary URL.
    – Using a Subdomain.

    doesn’t matter whichever you use.

    The option of search and replacing via sql script is what i did before but since there are a lot of backup, restore and migration plugins nowadays, that is a thing in the past, now you can just create a backup and send it to the target server and restore the site and all urls will automatically updated.

    I used backupbuddy which is a paid plugin that one client of mine bought as a gift to me. but of course you can try to find other free alternatives.

    Best,

    Van

    I always use the temporary IP based URL to build the website, then just change the URL with the searchandreplace script when ready to go live.
