Are you ready to breathe some new life into your old website?
This step-by-step, clear, and easy to follow course will show you how to take your current or old website and give it a complete wordpress website makeover, regardless of which tools, platform, or theme you plan to use to build it.
We will discuss effective strategies for planning your new website to ensure it works seamlessly to promote you, your work, and your brand, even when you’re occupied elsewhere. Additionally, I will guide you through the transition to a new WordPress theme, focusing on the versatile and visually appealing e-commerce WordPress theme, Divi by Elegant Themes.
I created this course while I myself was redesigning my own online artist’s portfolio. You’ll see my old website go through a complete transformation as I show you the exact process I used to plan, create, and launch my new and improved website as an actual case study.
Let me help you set up a new website that can do the online heavy lifting for you by showing you how to include features that:
- Present your recent projects, designs, or products more effectively
- Highlight your services in a compelling manner
- Increase sales of your products
- Expand your mailing list with new subscribers
- Boost social media shares and traffic for your blog posts and content
- Gain more followers for your linked social media profiles
- Utilize the Divi 3.0 Visual Builder for real-time page editing
- (NEW) Enhance your website’s performance, leading to increased clicks, engagement, followers, subscribers, and sales around the clock, even when you’re busy with other tasks.
These powerful, bite-sized lessons come directly from my comprehensive Web Snax: Super Simple Recipes for Easy Website Design course which is a full web design foundations class that not only gets into the very basics of using WordPress, but also how to plan and organize websites, create online graphics and animations, HTML and CSS, adding Javascript, and making beautiful websites from scratch in a variety of ways using an intuitive right-brained method that requires little to no coding ability.
