You have to edit .bash_profile and adding the following lines:

if [ -f ~/.aliases ]; then
    . ~/.aliases
fi

Then all you have to do is create a .aliases file in your user directory ~ and add your aliases there.

$ touch ~/.aliases

After that remember refresh the bash shell environment:

$ source .bash_profile

Contents of my ~/.bash_aliases file:

# - [ LS ] -

    alias ll='ls -la'

# - [ Git ] -

    alias gl="git log --color --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --abbrev-commit"
