If you are totally new about domain, then let me tell you what is domain? Domain is basically address of your blog/website. For example www.howtogetrich.cf is the domain of my website. It is the domain only through which one can get on to your website.
In a very simple way, if your website is your house then domain is the address of that house.
Now here comes about hosting. What is hosting?

Web hosting companies provide every tools for the website to stand on the internet. Now you have to purchase a domain and hosting for your blog/website. There are many domain and webhosting providers available on the internet with different charges. Some of the good domain and hosting providers are Godaddy and Bluehost.

A good theme gives good look to your blog. So you should choose a theme carefully. If you are using wordpress self-hosted plateform then there are numbres of theme options available for you. Some of those themes are premium and some are free.
You Can easily find themes on the internet.
- Content
Content is the king. It is the content only which makes your blog goes viral. Your content must be very helpful and meaningfull for the readers.
Always write content for helping others not for earning money. Help others, money will itself hepl you. Always write content about which you are interested to write and also maintain 100% accuracy. Here accuracy means you should not make any grammer mistakes while writing your blog. You can use grammerly, a google chrome extension that checks your writing error in real time.
You should also post some images in content for good looking. Your content should be written in a simple way that one should easily understand easily.
- SEO ( Most Important Step)
SEO ( Search engine optimization) is way of optimising your blog/website in such a way that your blog/website ranks first on the google search engine. Thats why it is called search engine optimization. Better SEO only gives better ranking of your website. And better ranking of the search engines gives lots of traffic to your website.
If you have written many post on your blog and you have very few traffic that means your blog and post both need a better search engine optimization.
It is mainly of two types, first in on-page seo and second is off-page seo.
SEO is the main factor for huge traffic on your website.
