Visit the BlueHost home page and select the “Sign Up Now” button to begin the process to open your new blog hosting account with BlueHost.

Step 2: Enter Your Domain Name

Enter your domain name in the appropriate field depending on whether you are opening a brand new hosting account for that domain name or transferring your hosting account for an existing domain name. Alternatively, if you don’t have a domain name yet, select the “Help me get my free domain” link to secure a domain name. If you have questions about domain names just ask me.

Step 3: Enter New Account Information

Enter the requested information in the new account sign up form. Make your login simple for now…since I’ll be working on your site I’ll need your simple login information (username and password) to access the site…don’t forget to write it down. I’ll make a more secure password as I develop the site. Once I’m finished building or working on your site I encourage you to change your login so only you have access to your account. If I ever need access in the future we can just go through this same process.

Step 4: Congratulations – Your New BlueHost Account is Active!

That’s all there is to it. Your new BlueHost account will be activated automatically, so you or I can begin working with your new account immediately.

Step 5: Transfer Existing Domains
If you want to transfer an existing domain to your new BlueHost account from another blog host, simply follow the instructions provided by BlueHost to change the DNS settings for your existing domain with your other blog host. Once your DNS settings are changed, your existing domain will be available to modify through your BlueHost account.
