In this video, I go through the step by step process of making a website using WordPress (the most popular content management systems). This WordPress tutorial is perfect for beginners who want to create a business website, hobby site or even can be used to start your own freelancer business.

The biggest difference from this video and others, is that we go through how to choose colours, fonts, where to get all our images from, how to edit your assets, prototyping on Adobe XD and even how to rank your website on Google!
