Creating Your First WordPress Website


WordPress Themes & Site Building from scratch 101.WordPress Themes



Building your first website using WordPress and WordPress Themes:

Now that you have bought hosting from HostGator and have a place to host your website - You probably want to build the actual website. You might of figured out that I recommend WordPress, and the reason for that is that I have tried almost every other platform for building sites out there: Drupal, Joomla, Tumblr, Custom PHP FrameWorks, and CMS Systems... and came to the conclusion that WP is the most balanced software on the market.
It is EXPANDABLE which menas with a few clicks you can make your blog into a shop, and your shop into a portfolio, and your portfolio into a real estate website. so read on  as to what make is so special:

What is WordPress?

WP is known to be a Blog, but it is also a CMS (Content Managing System) it does what it says; it manages your website appearance and any content you put on it.  With a few clicks you can install it, and with a few more you will have a ready website.


Installing WordPress is EASY:

Simply login in to HostGator find the Quick Install Button:
Select WordPress, Type in the name of your Blog and your email and Boom! Done!
Your Very Own website with unlimited features is online! (important to note that WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are not the same, we are talking about .ORG right now) 


Finding a Style is FUN!

This is where the Fun Begins, Let's Get a Theme!!!
Imagine you can type in one word make one small payment and have a Absolutely up to date, most recent website in the World? Well its Possible, thanks to Theme Forest:
Theme Forest is by far the best market place to buy a theme from.

Most themes come with support, and HostGator can help you with installing your themes, even though it really is asy as 1,2,3 done.
