"I need a website, but I don't know how to build one."
"I need a website, but I don't know how to build one." Sound familiar? This is why over 10 years ago I taught myself how to build my own website. Guess, what? I’ve never taken a single class and I’m definitely not Rainman.
I just invested my time and energy into learning WordPress. It is an extremely user-friendly content management system that 27% of all websites on the internet have chosen as their platform.
Unless you want to shell out tons of money on web designers, then you will need to embrace the DIY approach. Never in a million years did I think that I possessed the mindset to build my own website or teach people how to build theirs as well.
I’ve never had any formal training and gained coding skills along the way. I’ve come a long way baby and I’m not about to let all this knowledge go to waste! I cannot stress enough that this is not just another website building course. Not only will you learn how to build your own website, but you’re also going to gain the following skills:
How to create website content that will resonate with your audience
Establish processes that will reduce the time it takes to engage with your audience
How to create and promote your mailing list.
Learn how to effectively track your progress
Private Facebook group
Make sure to capitalize on this opportunity to bypass all the frustrations and learning pains I experienced. You’re lucky because you’re going to be able to learn how to skip the ugly website phase and go straight to creating an attractive one.
If this sounds like your jam, then sign up for the course!
***PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS COURSE IS NOT BEING UPDATED ANYMORE (MAINLY DUE TO THE THRIVE ARCHITECT PLUGIN SECTION-I CAN'T KEEP UP WITH HOW OFTEN THRIVE KEEPS CHANGING THIS PLUGIN). HOWEVER, MUCH OF THE COURSE CONTENT (75%) IS STILL RELEVANT AND WILL ENABLE YOU TO CREATE A WORDPRESS WEBSITE. THIS IS WHY THE COURSE HAS BEEN DISCOUNTED. ***

FAQ
-
Why is this course so cheap?
I'm no longer updating this Scourse. The reason I am doing this is because I don’t have the time to keep up with all the cosmetic change the Thrive Architect plugin makes-LOL The sections that discuss WordPress are the same, but there are instances where the Thrive Architect plugin menu is on the right side instead of the left, they (Thrive Architect) moved a button higher on the page instead of lower, little changes like this. I’m a perfectionist and refuse to deal with this anymore, so I’m no longer going to update this course. If little things like cosmetic changes won't intefere with hurting your understanding, then you should consider purchasing this course for the steep discount (especially, if you like my MailChimp and Mailerlite tutorials).
-
Should I purchase a domain name? Who should host my website?
Yes, you will need to purchase your domain name and hosting plan (I highly suggest Siteground). If you want to keep your domain name separate from your hosting, then check out NameCheap for domain names.
-
Do I have to purchase the Thrive Architect plugin?
You don't have to, but there are many sections related to the Thrive Architect plugin. However, this plugin will enable you to have the ability to create a variety of landing pages as well.
-
Should I purchase a premium theme?
In case you’re not familiar with the terminology a premium theme is a WordPress Theme that you have to pay for. Premium Themes are better to use because they enable you more flexibility to customize your content, you have customer support and they are less vulnerable to being hacked because they keep up with all of the WordPress updates. This is why I highly recommend purchasing either Thrive Themes or StudioPress.
-
Should I buy this course without purchasing a premium theme?
Please keep in mind that even if you choose not to purchase a Premium theme, you will still benefit from this course. The only theme that I recommend you use is the WordPress Twenty Eighteen theme. This is the only theme created and maintained by WordPress. The steps that we discuss during the premium theme sections are additional menu options that allow you further customization options based on whatever theme you choose to purchase.
