As someone who has been into programming, web design, and blogging for a very long time, WordPress was definitely something I came across. There was one issue with it, I HAD NO IDEA HOW TO USE IT! There was so much to learn but I had no idea where to start or how to find resources that can teach me in a way that keeps me awake.

Introducing LinkedIn Learning's amazing intro course on WordPress by Morten Rand-Hendriksen. This course guided me through EVERYTHING (no exaggeration). I found all the little tips and tricks to creating an amazing WordPress site and how to keep my page exactly how I wanted it to be. The best part about this course is that it breaks down different aspects into different chapters, and slows it down and showcases the entire process. It was easy to follow, engaging and I feel confident in making a website on the program now

What I have learned:

- WordPress is one of the most used interfaces used to publish content

- WordPress can be used for multiple different scenarios

- The difference between a post vs page

- How to create and edit a WordPress Page

- Categories and tagging posts to create a wider audience
