A quick Google search can yield hundreds of tutorials about driving a car, but if you really want to learn, you’ll eventually need to get behind the wheel. Similarly, you can read lots about website creation, but actually doing it is where the rubber meets the road.
This is exactly what our Create Your Site course is all about — doing. It’s about taking the necessary steps and action on your site to bring it all together.
Our Getting Started course is a great starting point for the planning component. It covers the birds-eye-view of creating an entire site, it provides explanations of how some of the key aspects of the software works, and gives you a solid blueprint for how to plan your content.
Our Quick Launch course focuses on the designing component of your site. Since many website creators aren’t designers this leg of the journey can feel a bit daunting. How do you decide whether to use columns? Should a heading go above or below an image? How do you make an attractive call-to-action? This course shows you the easy way forward with the power of using patterns.
This Create Your Site course offers deeper explanations to complement both the Getting Started and Quick Launch courses, while also focusing on editing and customizing your site to bring it all together!
It’s a comprehensive yet accessible guide that works well as a starting point or as a follow-up to the Getting Started or Quick Launch courses. It covers the essentials of site organization, creating additional pages and menus, utilizing patterns, and equips you with the skills for practical content customization. The course guides you through technical steps, but leaves room for you to tailor the specifics to your unique content needs. It’s perfect for those who have a clear content vision and seek practical, technical guidance to bring their website to life, whether starting from scratch or working with an existing site.
