Having a website is crucial—even for very small businesses. A website serves as your digital storefront, offering potential customers information about your products or services 24/7. Without a website, you risk losing business to competitors who are online. However, hiring a developer can be costly and time-consuming.
In this course you’ll learn how to create a professional-looking, functional website with minimal effort and expense. We’ll guide you through:
What will you learn?
- How to navigate around the WordPress interface
- Installing and customising a theme to control the look and feel of your site
- Using the WordPress block editor to add content to your site
- Building the navigation to direct people to the different sections of your site
- Installing plugins to add functionality to your site
Who will benefit?
This course is suitable for anyone who wants to learn more about how to use WordPress and would like to put together their own simple WordPress site. It is ideal for small businesses, sole traders, charities, hobbyists, freelancers, entrepreneurs and anyone looking to get a website up quickly and cost effectively.
How does the course work?
This is a self-paced video training course. We work through the process of building a simple, stylish one page website over a series of videos so you can follow along and build your own site. The course includes everything you need to get from a blank WordPress installation through to having a functional website up and running.
We’ve also included a selection of bonus videos showing you how to do some of the WordPress functions that we’re most commonly asked about.
When you buy this course we will give you a dummy website with WordPress already installed that you can use to build your site and to practice your WordPress skills, and the cost of hosting this site for a year is included in the course fees.
