How to Build a WordPress Website – The Easy Way!
In this video, we’re going to be covering how to build a professional WordPress website, step by step.
I’ve personally been using WordPress for about 10 years now, and I decided to make this WordPress tutorial for beginners, to show you everything you’ll need to know in order to build a professional website you can be proud of!
• You don’t need to have any previous design skills.
• We won’t be using any coding.
• And it’s only going to take us about 60 minutes to complete!
So, if you need a website for your business, or maybe you just want to build a website for fun, this is how you do it. I’m going to walk you through the entire process, step by step, and in a way that anyone should be able to understand.
Even if you’ve only ever used your computer for sending emails and watching random cat videos, you should still have no problems building this website.
Plus, this website is going to be built using WordPress, which is the same platform trusted by big names like The New York Times, CNN, Forbes, eBay, Sony and Mashable, just to name a few!
