Website Operating Platform Having never purchased a domain name, a webhosting plan, Gloria turned to the internet for help and advice. After reading numerous recommendations and positive reviews, she decided to go with PowerUpHosting , a webhosting company based in LA, California. "The entire process was pretty simple and straightforward, anything I didn't understand I would just ask the customer support." - Gloria Buying a domain name proved to be more challenging. It was more difficult and complex in comparison to purchasing a webhosting plan. With so many different domain name companies, basically serving the same purpose. Gloria was unsure of which to pick. At first, she considered purchasing a domain name that was catchy and easy to remember, but quickly gave up on that idea due to the fact that the majority of them were already taken or unavailable. In the end, she asked a close friend who was familiar with setting up websites to help her out. He helped her pick a suitable domain that they were both happy with, in the end they settled with Coryi. They choose the name http://coryi.org because it was short, easy to remember and somewhat catchy. It was also the name given to the Florida panther, perfect for a animal lover. The last step was configuring the domain settings and website. Gloria's good friend helped her out and taught her how to "point" her domain name to her website and also recommended her to setup WordPress. WordPress is a type of CMS software that allows you to build a blog and customize your website to your likings. She is still learning all the features of WordPress, but is dedicated to improving. Gloria's friend also showed her various cool tricks such as how to install plugins, themes, widgets, etc. These are all optional accessories used to improve the design and feel of the website. Currently, her website is based around bean bag chairs. As she has decided to create a website that will help others in choosing the perfect bean bag. End
