Anna Agostino

Anna Agostino did our Build a WordPress Website course. She is an entrepreneur and her mission is to “help you build a life you love and to live life on your terms”.

Anna Agostino comes from an entrepreneurial & marketing background.  She already had an eye for design and business. Anna wanted to create a beautiful website that expresses her ability to help other businesses and entrepreneurs.

What we covered in the training

• Installed and set up WordPress.
• Installed a premium WordPress theme called Divi.
• We give you DIVI for FREE with the course.
• Anna already had a vision of what design she wanted.

In the first session;

• We set up the home page, about, contact and blog.
• Anna sources her own images.
• We used reduceimages.com to reduce the file size of the images.
• Anna learnt how to use the Divi builder, which allows you to control the layout of each page.
• So you can customise each page to whatever you like.
• We had the site live after the second session.
• We added some “must have” plugins including;
  • Security – to keep the site safe from hackers.
  • Anti-spam – to ensure no bad comments.
• In session two, we fine-tuned the website.
• Added Social Media.
• Anna then learnt how to use the Yoast SEO plugin.
• The Yoast plugin gives you a guide on how to set up your site for Google.
• SEO  – search engine optimisation is an important part of building a website.
• We can help you do SEO in this course – SEO Training
• Anna also learnt how to keep the site up to date, i.e. plugins, the theme and WordPress.
• Which is very important to keep everything working properly.
• I’m very proud of Anna’s site, it looks amazing!!
