Log on to your HostGator control panel, also known as cPanel. If you're unsure of how to access your cPanel, click the link found in the email you received once you purchased your HostGator hosting plan or by typing 'cpanel' at the end of your domain name, as an example, 'http://www.mywebsite.com/cpanel.' Don't include the quotes or punctuation. This takes you right to the Hostgator control panel after you input your username and password.
Scroll to the bottom of the cPanel page.
Look at 'IP Address' under the blue 'Account Information' bar. Here you will find your service plan, the IP address, the server name and your name servers.

How to Start Your Own Fantasy WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 26,
In Feburary 2016 26,
Build your website using pen and paper. Think about what pages you will want your fantasy website to have, including a message board, if you like. Draw a rectangle for the home page (where visitors first arrive) and draw subsequent rectangles to represent the other pages, such as 'about us' or 'contact us' or 'links.'
Design your primary navigation method. Will your visitors get from the home page to the other pages just by clicking on text links, or will you use images? Figure out the two basic states for these images: what they look like when they're just sitting there (the off state) and what they look like when someone puts their mouse cursor over them (the over state). Does it change?
Draw out on pen and paper how each page will look. What text do you plan to have on each page, and where will it be? Left aligned? Centered? Will you use headers and images? What about the background?
Get your Space on the Web
Select a domain for your website. That's the www.WhateverYouWant.com or .net or .org or whatever. You can pick your name, but it must be unique among every other domain name in existence. Purchasing it from a place like GoDaddy.com or NetworkSolutions.com should cost around $10 per year.
Having purchased your domain name, it's like you've bought land but have no house to put your stuff (your website) in. You now need to buy a hosting package--the house to put on your land. There are literally hundreds of places that offer hosting packages on the web, such as Jiffynet.net, hostmonster.com, bluehost.com, or even GoDaddy, if that's where you got your domain. Again, prices will vary but it is possible to get a great package deal from some hosting providers for as little as $6 per month.
An alternative to doing Steps 1 and 2 separately is buying your domain name and hosting account together at the same place and perhaps receiving a package deal.
If you buy your hosting package separate from your domain name, you will need to log in where you bought your domain name and change the nameservers to your hosting company's nameservers. Your hosting company will send you information on how to accomplish this.
Wait for propagation to take place. When you buy a new domain and hosting, it can take up to 48 hours for the World Wide Web to realize that you are now there and have your space. That means that for a while, you may type in www.YourNewDomain.com and get nothing. Or perhaps you get nothing, but you call your friend and he can see it fine. Give it a couple of days, during which time you can involve yourself in the next steps.
Build and Upload Your Web Pages
You've got your design. You've got your space. You can start building using either your vast HTML knowledge to hand-code the page from scratch or a WYSIWYG editor like Adobe DreamWeaver or a free editor like CoffeeCup http://www.coffeecup.com/free-editor/.
Use your program to arrange your first page (and only your first page) just the way you like it. If you want to include images, you can download them from free image sites on the Internet or use programs like PhotoShop to create your own. Save those image files in your site folder and import them where they belong.
If you want to have a discussion board attached to your site, you can either buy one or use one of the many free ones available on the Internet, such as Pro Boards http://www.proboards.com/. Set up the page on your domain by following the instructions on the site from which you get it.
Test your site by uploading your main page to see how it looks on the screen. Make sure your fantasy elements are aligned just the way you like them. Test the link to the navigation board and make sure it is working properly.
Once your home page meets your approval, create the other pages for your site to fill it out. When you are done, advertise your site far and wide using social media like Facebook and Google to tell the world you have arrived.

How to Publish a Website OnlineIn Feburary 2016 02,
In Feburary 2016 02,
Purchase a domain name. Before you can even begin thinking about a publishing a website, you're going to want to have a domain name. Coming up with a good domain name can be a challenge as many of the best names are already taken. The key to selecting a good domain name is to be creative and try to find something catchy and easy to remember while still representing your website. You can search for available domain names on websites such as GoDaddy and Network Solutions, among many others. Domain names can be purchased for varying amounts of time ranging from one year to life.
Purchase a hosting plan. Once you've picked out your domain name, you'll need to decide what type of hosting plan you need. Your hosting will include how much web space your site will have, how much data transfer your site will be capable of providing, how many visitors can be on the site at one time, and how many e-mail addresses your site will have, among many other features.
Create your website. If you are new to website creation, many hosting companies offer programs that will assist you. These programs will basically let you enter everything in plain text and convert it all to HTML. This is often referred to as 'What you see is what you get.' These programs will also let you easily drop in photos and other documents. If you don't need assistance, you can use any of the various editing programs that are on the market.
Publish your site. Now that your website is created, you can publish your site simply by uploading what you have created directly into the root file of your web-hosting space. Your host will have complete instructions on how to publish to the root file.
