Module 9 – Building the Website

Time to work

Finally, you might need to practice building your own website. If you are interested, I can offer you an empty WordPress installation for testing your knowledge. You just have to ask. But be aware that the only way to learn WordPress is to take the time to practice. And it takes time!

You will find in the following videos, the production of the pages. I will use different methods and introduce you to some tools to help you build the content of your pages.

The idea is to make the transition from theory to practice. But just remember, the advisor will still be there to complete the website with you. Here is the final design of WOW.

Maintenance

Your website is completed. But now, to keep WordPress working healthy, there is some site maintenance you must do frequently.

When installing WordPress, you can choose that the maintenance tasks will be done automatically; that’s what I do. In most cases site updates and plugins do not cause problems. But it would be important to check your website regularly to make sure everything is working perfectly.
