Building and using a personal blog on Alibaba Cloud is mainly divided into the following steps:
1. Purchase Alibaba Cloud ECS host
2, purchase a domain name
3, apply for filing
4, install site building tool
5, build a WordPress blog website
6, domain name resolution
I save You can install the site building tool ( cloud helper ) first, and the cloud helper comes with a one-click source code deployment function, which can deploy various programs with one click. The operation is extremely simple. Now I will take the example of quickly building a WordPress blog website as an example.
Note: WordPress is a free and open source blog software and content management system based on PHP and MySQL. WordPress has a plug-in architecture and a template system. It is currently the most popular blog system on the Internet, and even many well-known website official websites are built using WordPress.
1. Log in to the cloud helper management panel to enter the site management page, click on the source code deployment, where we can quickly deploy many CMS including WordPress, forums, blogs, etc. with one click
2. If the PHP version required by the one-click deployment system does not match, you can switch to the environment management to install the corresponding PHP version
3. Enter your own site name and bound domain name on the deployment site page, click Next; the database and FTP pages can directly enter the next step
4. Wait patiently for a while, the WordPress source code will be deployed, record the database name, account, password
5. Enter the domain name just now in the browser to access. At this time, you can see the configuration interface of WordPress background
6. Copy and paste the database information created in step 4 and then click Submit to enter the final configuration interface and click to install
7. At this point, enter the site configuration interface, enter the site title, user name, password, email, and then click to install WordPress
8. After a few seconds, WordPress has been installed. Click the login button to enter the WordPress background to set the page
9. Finally enter the domain name to visit, you can normally visit to see the home page of the website
Manually upload your own source code to build a website
Since the programs supported by the one-click deployment function are limited in the end, we will talk about how to manually upload your own source code to build a website.
1. Log in to the cloud helper, open the site management, click "Create a new site", enter the site name and domain name in the pop-up site information page
2. Click the browse directory after the newly created site to enter the corresponding directory
3. Check and delete all files in the directory
4. Then click the upload button to upload the source code file
5. If your domain name has been resolved, you can directly access the website domain name after uploading the source code.
