With this in mind, we’re going to discuss WordPress for beginners 2023 style, granting you a plethora of information related to the field for you to dive into. Seeing as WordPress makes up a large bulk of the websites online, it’s exceptionally beneficial to dive into the matter and get started on your site sooner rather than later. Let’s take a look at how you can learn WordPress!

What is WordPress?

For those that don’t know, WordPress is an open-source content management system, meaning it’s entirely free for people to use. Although WordPress is the most popular content management system, it isn’t the only way people can make a website. There are other popular options such as coding like the old-fashioned way, website builders, and countless others.

WordPress.com VS WordPress.org

Before diving into the details of WordPress, it’s vital to know the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org. Although the two have a similar appearance, WordPress.org is used to download the open-source software, whereas WordPress.com is WordPress’s site and web hosting option. WordPress.com is very simple to use, but it’s nowhere near as versatile as WordPress.org.

Picking a Web Host

As great as it is to utilize WordPress for your site, the tedious part of the process involves a web host. For those that don’t know, a web host essentially grants access to your site on the world wide web. WordPress.com’s advantage is you don’t a web host since the site does the hosting for you.

However, as noted, this option isn’t as versatile, making it extremely limited with what you can do. Actually, getting a web host and installing WordPress grants you the ability to do whatever you want with your site. Even if you plan to have a simple site it’s much better to go with a web host. As for what web host to select, consider checking out GoDaddy, Siteground, Bluehost, and Hostgator.

How Much Does WordPress Cost?

The cost of WordPress largely depends on how much you’re willing to invest in your site. For instance, you can get a web host for less than $5 a month, pick a free domain, and have a free theme for your site. That’s essentially as bare minimum as you can go, but expect to spend a bit more than that if your site starts gaining a lot of traffic.

Picking a Domain and Installing WordPress

Once you have a web hosting package selected, the web host tends to prompt you to a domain page. The domain is what people will type into the browser to actually get to your site, making it an essential makeup of a website. Try to think of a simple and effective domain that fits your site’s niche.

Also, try to have a few in mind since it’s ubiquitous for a person’s first choice to not be available for purchase. If you can do that, you should be set for moving forward in the matter. Most web hosts make it very easy to install WordPress, so try to follow the instructions along with each prompt.

Choosing a WordPress Theme

Once WordPress is installed onto your site, log into your site by typing /wp-admin on the end of the domain. From there I'll show you how to familiarize yourself with the WordPress dashboard and its appearance. Take as much time as you need and begin to look for a WordPress theme for your website. Any how to use WordPress tutorial will stress the importance of picking a suitable theme.

WordPress offers themes directly under the appearance and theme area of your dashboard. Still, you can also install a WordPress theme from a theme marketplace. Themeforest is a trendy theme marketplace, but there are a lot of options to consider. Once installed, all you have to do is edit your site to your liking.
