This course teaches you all the basics of building, running and marketing websites using WordPress, the world’s leading website solution. In one day, you will build your own stunning website, which we will host free for one year. The course runs from 9.30am to 4pm and is limited to 10 places.

About the course

We cover everything from WordPress installation and set up to all the most useful features and tools WordPress offers. You get a brand new site to work on through the day, which you will practice on and make your own. You will apply an attractive design, make the site search engine friendly and add all the features and functionality you need to further develop and run the site yourself.

• WordPress is incredibly easy to pick up and you will be free to go at your own pace throughout the day.  All training materials will be provided after the course, so there need be no fear of “falling behind”.
