You have heard that lots of other people have websites and you want one of your own. Whether it is for a hobby or a business, I'll teach you to build WordPress websites.

This multi-part course shows how to build sites using WordPress.

• Anyone can do it!
• Discover how easy it is and have your own site in minutes!

OK, it won't have much content until you create some and it will look dull until you add an exciting theme, but that's what this course will show, using step-by-step guides.

This course is for:

• Anyone unfamiliar with WordPress
• Someone who has never built a website
• Anyone with a WordPress website who is struggling to understand it

Once you have mastered the basic tasks in the course, you will be able to apply that knowledge to build simple websites.

A follow-on course takes you further and shows how to build Pro sites.

 

What does the course contain?

This course teaches the basics of building a website using a free wordpress.com website.

Why? WordPress.com and self hosted WordPress are fundamentally the same.

A free wordpress.com site enables you to learn the basics of site building and it makes a good learning environment. When you have mastered the basics, continue with the next course that shows how to create pro sites with self-hosted WordPress.

Do I need a website?

No. This course shows how to set up a free wordpress.com website. Use it to follow the course and learn how WordPress works. Create a test site where you can try out ideas and experiment with WordPress.

This is the first step of a journey, not the destination. Start here and learn the basics.
