The course is built in such a way that you will learn how to create sites on WP in different ways – without constructors at all, and with the help of Gutenberg, and with the most popular – Elementor.
Course outline
Installing WordPress
The WordPress installation process itself takes 5 minutes, but there are a lot of preparatory steps and pitfalls.
The basics of creating websites on WordPress
This module is designed for those who have never experienced WordPress, however it will be useful for everyone because in each lesson I share my personal opinion based on experience.
Creating a portfolio site
We won’t use demo data in this module, but we will learn how to work with it!
Creating lendings
Basics. How do I choose a theme and builder for a landing page?
How to work with Elementor
Elementor is by far the most popular website builder on WordPress and will likely be so for a long time to come. There are even design agencies that create websites on Elementor. It’s time for us to learn how to work with it too.
Creating a company website
Getting to know Gutenberg and customizing it
Gutenberg is a content editor and builder that is part of WordPress itself as of late. Compared to Elementor, it’s not as functional yet, but I believe it’s the future and we should definitely be able to work with it.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Basics of SEO on WordPress
In this lesson, I will try to touch as much as possible all aspects related to internal SEO-optimization of the site. Also consider plugins for WordPress, which greatly simplify the work with internal SEO.
Site Load Speed
The good news is that WordPress itself is very fast. Those people who claim otherwise and cite their slow sites as an example, they just don’t know anything like Jon Snow. Read more in this module.
Site Security
Another piece of good news is that WordPress is secure in and of itself. Anyone who claims otherwise probably doesn’t realize that because WordPress is public and open source, any vulnerability is immediately known to the world and fixed immediately. Nevertheless, a couple of security basics I’ll still give you.
Freelance
You may or may not believe it, but I have acquaintances who after this course began to make sites for clients on WordPress and this without knowledge of programming.
