How To Make A PREMIUM Small Business Website | WordPress & Divi Theme [Video]

Today I walk you through how to create a PREMIUM website for your small business with the powerful and user-friendly Divi theme.WordPress powers over 1/3 of the internet, making it the most popular website building platforms on the planet. However, WordPress can be quite complex and difficult to navigate especially for beginners. This is where the Divi theme comes in. The Divi theme offers a visual builder experience, meaning complete beginners can learn how to design and build their own website on the front-end of the website. Rather than trying to navigate the intimidating back-end. WordPress plus the Divi theme gives individuals with limited experience in design and website building the opportunity to choose from over 1000 professionally made website layouts. This gives beginners a place to start rather than trying to build a website from scratch.Hostpapa: Get started with your Hostpapa web hosting here:https://tracking.opienetwork.com/aff_c?offer_id=437&aff_id=13909&source=stewartgauldDivi Theme: Get started with the Divi Theme here: https://www.elegantthemes.com/affiliates/idevaffiliate.php?id=51569Canva (free design tool for beginners): Create website content (Logos, Images, Videos etc) with Canva here: https://canva.7eqqol.net/0qDG3*(The above links are affiliate links, which means we will get a commission if you upgrade to a paid plan through these links, this helps support our channel and we thank you in advance!)
