Build your own Website

Build a WordPress Website Course

Are you looking for a WordPress development course to help you build a website for your business? In this course we can help you build a professional WordPress website!

You will receive some awesome resources including;

  • One of the most popular WordPress themes on the market – DIVI from Elegant Themes.
  • Divi is worth over $130 AUD, which includes over 250 free templates.
  • An up to date WordPress guide – worth over $100 AUD.
  • Free online videos from Elegant themes.
  • Resources to help you build your website.

This WordPress development course is suitable for anyone who wants to build a WordPress website for a business or startup. It’s also great if you have an old website that’s in desperate need of a redesign.

It’s the perfect solution for startups & small business.

  • Giving you full control over your website & ongoing costs.
  • We teach a lot of small businesses who have had a website built by someone else and can’t edit the site.
  • So we rebuild the site in a WordPress theme that allows them to edit the site themselves.
  • Saving valuable time and money.

This WordPress course has 2 options.

$990 – for 5+ pages, basic site.
$1400.00 – for 10 + pages and a more complex site with advanced features.

Clients come to us to build their own website for a few reasons.

1. To get the results you want

One of the most common reasons, is that clients have had a website built before and never got the results they wanted. Paying out a lot of money and not getting what you want is devastating for any small business.

2. Budget

Most businesses when starting out just don’t have a huge budget to pay a web designer. At least with a course there are no hidden expenses.

3. Don’t want to outsource

Outsourcing a website can be a very daunting process and often doesn’t end well. Especially if you know nothing about web design. Doing a course allows transparency, as you are present throughout the entire training and have your say in what gets done.

3. Learn to manage and edit

  • Many clients want to learn all about WordPress and how to edit their site ongoing.
  • Not only to save money but to save the delays in waiting for a developer to help them.
  • We hear this time and time again, that developers often take weeks before they even respond to a client’s request for support.
  • And then pay a small fortune for something simple that they could have done themselves, if they knew how.

This WordPress development course not only gives you the ability to build your own WordPress site but gives business owners control over their website.
