We know exactly where you are right now. You've seen people make real money blogging and wondered if it's actually possible. You've probably Googled "how to start a blog" and ended up more confused than before, too many tools, too many steps, too many people telling you different things.
This page is different. We're not going to give you 47 steps or tell you to buy $500 worth of tools. We're going to show you the exact system we use, stripped to the minimum, honest about what works and what doesn't.
Once you sign up, you'll land in the Hostinger dashboard. Here's what to do next, step by step:
Click "Add Website" from the main dashboard. You'll see a few options: Hostinger Horizons, Hostinger Website Builder, WordPress, Custom PHP/HTML Website and Node.js Web App. We'll walk you through the two easiest options below, starting with Horizons because it's honestly impressive for beginners.
Option B: WordPress — If you want more long-term control and access to the full WordPress plugin ecosystem, go this route. In your Hostinger dashboard, click "WordPress", and it installs automatically in about 2 minutes. Log in at yourdomain.com/wp-admin.
Either way, your site is now live. The difference is just in how you manage it day-to-day
Now, the part I love most about Hostinger is the blog section. Whether you use Horizons or WordPress, there's a dedicated blog area built in. In Horizons, it's under your site pages as a "Blog" section, where you can create, schedule, and publish posts directly from there without touching any code. Each post has its own SEO settings, featured image slot, and category system. It works exactly the way you'd expect a blog to work, and it takes about 5 minutes to write and publish your first post once you're set up.
