Notes from Chris

Episode 1318
Today let’s look at setting up a Wordpress website. This can be very simple, or like many simple things in life, can be made very complicated. Let’s try to stick with the simple.

The goal of this tutorial is to show you how to set up your first website in a short period of time and without spending a lot of money. Your site probably won’t be beautiful or amazing at first, but that’s okay—done is better than perfect, and you have to start somewhere.

The first year of Side Hustle School, I made a page about how to set up a website in 90 minutes. This turned into one of our most popular tutorials, so I wanted to revisit and update it here.

Listen to today's episode to learn more...

 

 

THIS WEEK’S ASSIGNMENT:

Set up your first website using Wordpress OR make two improvements to your existing website.

MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
  • Looking to purchase a domain name and setup hosting? Go to SideHustleSchool.com/website for this special offer for Side Hustle School listeners.
  • Once you've got your domain name and hosting, install a Wordpress theme. Remember, Wordpress.org is free - totally free! It’s different from Wordpress.com, which offers paid solutions.
 

 

Inspiration is good; inspiration combined with action is better. Now get back to work!

Yours in the revolution,
