How To Build A Website Using WordPress (2024)
A Step by Step WordPress Tutorial for Beginners

Hi, my name is Martie.

I’ve been using WordPress for over 10 years at this point.

And I decided to create this WordPress tutorial for complete beginners, to show you everything you’ll need to get started.

– You don’t need to have any previous web design experience.
– We won’t be using any complicated coding to build our website.
– And the whole process will take less than 60 minutes.

So, if you need a website for your online business.

Or, if you just want to build a website for fun.

Click play on the video, and we can start building it together, using WordPress.
