How to Make a Blog or Website
If you are serious about making money online, the first thing you need to learn is how to
make a website - if you don't learn to do this, you'll never be able to make any significant
amount of money online, ever.
Today I'm going to show you how to make a website (or blog) on its own domain, without
coding, using WordPress (it's a surprisingly simple process). These are professional websites
with any look that you want (and can incorporate anything that you want, including social
media buttons, "buy now" buttons, mailing list forms, Google maps, etc.).
Note
: When I say we will be creating a website using WordPress, I don't mean creating one
through the WordPress website. Websites created through there are severely limited in what
you can do with them and offer very little flexibility overall. The method I teach enables you
to create truly professional websites by installing the WordPress software and you won't be
limited in any way.
Not only is WordPress very easy to use, it is 100% free and makes your website completely
customizable. Over 15% of websites online have been created with WordPress; if you can
use Microsoft Word, you can make a website using WordPress (my LIONS CLUB website
(
http://makemoneyfromhomelionsclub.com
) was made using WordPress...and I don't even
know any code!).
Set aside one hour and make your first website TODAY!
The point of today's exercise is simply for you to get your feet wet and to get a website on-
line that you can play and experiment with. Don't worry too much about what this first web-
site is going to be about; just get
something online
. After you complete this first project and
feel comfortable with the process of putting together a professional looking website,
then
you can start developing your passive income website portfolio.
If you don't know what to make your first website about, a fun first project could be building
a website for your new side business: freelancing websites for others. After all, once you're
done with the first four lessons, you'll be qualified to build fairly basic, but professional
looking websites. Then you can start charging people $500 per website to make yourself
some extra money! When I first learned how to make a website with WordPress, I used to
post my services on Craigslist daily, and I would get at least two to three gigs per month. You
can simply make your website YourName.com or YourNameWebsiteCreationServices.com.
