I'm creating this thread to post step by step instructions on how to create a WN website.... where to host it, how to build it, etc.

Today, with technology where it's at it's as easy as creating a wordpress account and hosting your site.

Some WN sites out there already

Webblogs:
www.theoccidentalobserver.net
www.davidduke.com
www.topconservativenews.com

Video sites:
www.trutube.tv
www.Tube14.org

Forums:
VNN and Stormfront are the major ones

Please offer up instructions, and hopefully, create some of your own.

As a person who has explored the idea of putting up a website for years, becoming repeatedly side-tracked by the many available systems and components of website construction, I'll offer this elementary suggestion: start with the "what" rather than the "how." Remembering that everything can be modified as you go along, identify your theme(s) and main ideas, organize as much of it as you're able to, visualize the look and navigation; then choose what tools will best get it accomplished.

I've accumulated many URLs over time, but I'll just post this starter (http://www.stratecomm.com/faqs/components/), which I came upon a few minutes ago.

In my own journey, I'm asking myself, "do I need a grid, and if so, which one?"

With a couple hours work and you can have a site up and running.

The only hard part is thinking up a good name for your domain/organization

I think a HTML/CSS tutorial would be more useful. If you know code you can make better layouts.

Has anyone here ever used squarespace to make a website? Just curious because I'm hearing good things about it.

I'm in the process of creating my own sites. So, I'm using my posts here to brainstorm ideas and then throw them out. Hopefully by sharing them I can inspire others to do the same.

Ways to monetize your website to pay for costs

Donations:

Add a paypal donate button. Click and pleadge. Bitcoin donation button - Bitcoin especially because it's toally annonoymous. Reference: http://www.realzionistnews.com/

Merchandising
CafePress.com: Put WN slogans or your blog's logo on shirts, bags, coasters and other items.

Self-Published Books: If your readers like your content, they may want to have something they can own offline or even share with friends. Create a book with self-publishing services like Lulu, and you'll earn profits even without a huge book deal.

Printfection.com: Design and sell custom products with Printfection.com.

Hard-Copy Content: Create a CD-ROM "book" with cleanly organized content that can be accessed offline. You can take things a step further and sell subscriptions for future updates to the system.

GoodStorm: Like CafePress.com and Printfection.com, GoodStorm is a nice way to create and sell your own merchandising products.

Adding your own store and shopping cart:

Paid Content
E-books, WN pamphlets, members only section, podcasts, videos

Important to add:

RSS, email alerts/newsletters are essential. Social media links - facebook share articles, Googe+, twitter, etc.

I think a HTML/CSS tutorial would be more useful. If you know code you can make better layouts.

Why even bother when there's thousands of website templates and hundreds of pre-made Wordpress layouts out there?

I want to make this so easy that someone with no coding skills can have a site up and running in a few hours.

Hopefully more people here follow the lead!

Right now I'm just registering domain names and then redirecting them to my Tumbr page.

URL forwarding

How to set up URL forwarding in namecheap - YouTube

When I have the sites built the url will redirect to them. It takes 5 minutes to register a domain then add a redirect. This is surely something everyone here can do!

Question about registering an anonymous domain: Is godaddy.com the best for maintaining privacy?
