WordPress is a powerful Content Management System (CMS) that allows you to create and manage websites without needing to write code.

Whether you're starting a blog, business website, or an online store, WordPress provides the tools and flexibility you need.

1. Creating Your WordPress Website

• Sign Up for WordPress Hosting: If you do not already have a web hosting account, you can visit our WordPress hosting product page to browse available plans and select the one that best suits your needs.

• Choosing a Theme: Your WordPress theme defines how your site looks and functions. Pick one that aligns with your site's purpose and enhances user experience through its design, layout, and customization options.

• Understanding the Dashboard: Familiarize yourself with the WordPress dashboard, where you'll manage your site's content, appearance, and settings.
  

2. Basic Site Configuration

• Setting Up Permalinks: Configure your site's permalinks (URL structure) under Settings > Permalinks.

• Customizing Settings: Explore and adjust general settings, reading settings (front page
  displays), and discussion settings according to your preferences.
  

3. Creating Content

• Adding Pages and Posts: Understand the difference between pages (static content) and posts (dynamic content like blog entries). 
  

• Pages are typically used for static content that remains relevant over time, such as an About Us page, Contact page, or Services page. Pages are often included in your site's main navigation menu for easy access.
  

• Posts are commonly used for news updates, articles, or any content where the order of publication matters. They are organized by categories and tags, making it easier for users to find related content.
  

• Inserting Media: Learn how to add images, videos, and other media to your posts and
  pages.

4. Extending Functionality with Plugins

• Installing Plugins: Discover and install plugins to add features such as contact forms,
  SEO tools, e-commerce functionality, and more. Here is a simple guide on how to add a plugin on your WordPress site.

5. Managing Your Website

• Updating WordPress: Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to ensure
  security and functionality.
  

• Backing Up Your Site: Implement a backup strategy to protect your website's data. Here, you can effortlessly back up your site with just a few clicks using JetBackup 5. For more information, refer to our guide on using JetBackup 5 for backing up or restoring your site/files.
