Create A Custom Responsive WordPress Website For A Client

Course details

Charge your clients much more money by creating a WordPress website exactly to their requirements.

Create a custom responsive WordPress website for a client using the Genesis theme framework on the WordPress platform.

WordPress provides you with a fairly well-optimised web system. However, combining WordPress with the premium Genesis theme ($59.95) ensures an entirely future-proof, perfectly optimized and responsive web design with the latest CSS3 and HTML5 with Schema.org mark-up. Genesis is used by ProBlogger.net, Copyblogger.com, and a host of other famous websites.

Here is the site we will learn how to design and create: NuraHNash.com the course shows you everything from the basics to fairly advanced HTML and CSS tweaking of the child theme.

After you have finished this course you will have learned how to:

  Set up a WordPress website on a host's server (both the manual and "one-click" methods)

  Create a custom "Under Construction" page to display during online development

  Set up the logo and top navigation menu with drop-downs

  Set up a blog on it's own separate page

  Set up social media profile link widgets and understand widgets in general

  Add content and images to the website's pages and the blog posts

  Create and style up new sidebar widgets

  Two ways of adding and editing an image slider with overlaid text

  Use CSS media queries to ensure the site displays correctly on all browsers and all possible devices (phones, iPods, iPads, tablets, laptops, etc.) completely understand responsive design

  Create a contact page with a contact form

  Create an email subscription list and sidebar form with incentive to join the most important tactic of internet marketing

  Display a "favicon" for your site for the browsers's address bars (as well as for iPod Touch, iPads and iPhones)

  Display a higher resolution logo for retina screens

  Plus much more!

I would advise anyone taking this course to have the Genesis theme framework although it isn't 100% necessary.

This course is ideal for anyone wishing to create a website for themselves or other businesses for which you could charge $3000+. I have gone into everything in great detail so there's no need to worry if you have very little knowledge of WordPress, HTML, CSS and/or PHP.

The course would be particularly useful for people who wish to run their own web design business as you would be able to charge four-figure fees for creating a bespoke website like this.
