Course Overview
Learn how to build a professional WordPress website from scratch — no coding required. This hands-on course uses the latest WordPress (2026) features including block themes and the Gutenberg editor. You’ll start with domain and hosting basics, then install WordPress locally and on a live server. From there we move into the WordPress dashboard, content creation, and theme customization.
You will learn how to choose and install themes, design pages using the block editor, create menus, and manage blog posts and media. We cover essential plugins for SEO, contact forms, caching, backups, and security, and show you step-by-step how to set them up. The course includes a full live project: building a business website from zero — header, hero section, services, contact form, and footer — making sure the site looks great on mobile.
Performance and security are covered in practical terms: image optimization, caching setup, backups, and basic hardening to keep your site safe. There’s a full module on SEO basics using Rank Math (or Yoast) and submitting your site to Google Search Console. You’ll also learn how to migrate sites from local to live hosting and how to keep everything updated.
By the end of this course you’ll be comfortable creating and managing WordPress sites for yourself or clients. The course includes downloadable resources, demo site files, and a certificate upon completion. Whether you want to build a personal blog, a business site, or start offering WordPress setup services, this course gives you the practical skills to do it.
