Thank you soooooooo much for an awesome tutorial. You have no idea how helpful you have been...I finally feel like even though my head is underwater (for now) I am breathing just fine. I can FINALLY do this. All the best with your future endeavours.
Absolutely love your videos and your very clear cut way of explaining absolutely every little detail and going through the process slowly and step by step. So helpful for us luddites! I can't begin to tell you how much these have helped me. Thank you so much!
OMG, thank God I found this tutorial, I have seen other tutorials and they were very confusing, yours is soooo clear and very well explained. Thank you so much.
Gosh you are saving me soooo much time and as a teen starting out its hard especially without money but people like you make it easy wayyyy less stressful
@@StewartGauld hey, while trying to make the free wordpress blog, I noticed that I could not have the menu and title perfectly aligned in on single horizontal space like yours, any workaround for that.
Wow, I am a newbie in digital marketing and i really appreciate this. For a non-techy like me, this helped a lot. Thanks, be watching more of your videos.
Stewart, it's pesky me again. I go to the place ( 3:39 ) where you show the list of fees. On top I see where you show "start with a free site" There is no such option now ion the same page. By the way I already have a domain. Would that be why I don't have a free option?
thank you sir! however I coudn't locate the socials button when I clicked on the menus button. secondly, I couldn't add block on the bar where I need to embed my youtube videos
This is extremely helpful. However I am at the step where you go to appearance and click the option menu and that option isn't showing for me? Do you know why this may be happening?
So there doesn't seem to be any need for Divi or Elemental? With this theme, you can add block, buttons etc the some as those paid ones mentioned? You are a brilliant teacher. I really have confidence to start now.
Thanks for this tutorial. Very helpful. I want to move my blog posts from my free WP site to another but when I do, the images keep the original url. When I delete the old site the images will go with it. I don't see a way to get to the data base. Your thoughts?
This helped me some, but it seems like Wordpress has changed since you did this. Or is it the American version? I can't find all the links and things that you talk about. I can't get my simple blog set up. All I want is a blog and now I have a complicated website that is frustrating me. You helped some, but I'm wondering what I did wrong or why this is becoming so difficult.
Hey Stewart, another question for you. Is there a way to have the menu links (Home & Contact) go to a certain place on the same page? I hope that makes sense. Say I have an "about" button in the menu on the top and I want it to go to the about block on my home page. Is that possible?
Thank you so much for great tutorial. If use this wordpress free blog as my portfolio website as a free, without adding any custom domain or host, how long can i use this ? Is it gonna free forever like google blogger ?
Thanks, Stewart, for sharing such informative content. I would like to know where I can find themes that best suits my business niche like it may be affiliate marketing, graphic design, freelancing etc. Also please share how I can install any theme in Wordpress in free version
Great tutorial THANKS Stewart for sharing it, and how can we find it on the web through google search. I did hit launch website, I did follow all your steps. Is it something else I need to follow where we can see it on the web?
@@StewartGauld First I want to thank you again for your step by step tutorial it helped me to create a beautiful website. Now I just got to get it where people can see it when they search for it. Because my neighbor, family and friends saying that they cant find it. Can you help me with this second process? Or direct me to the next tutorial.
Hey Ruel, It can take time for your website to rank higher in search engines like Google. You can also engage in SEO related activities to bet your competition and be found easier on Google.
Hey Stewart, How are you? I hope you and your family are doing well. I was wondering with the free version of WordPress is it possible to have the "Testimonials" section populate itself or do I have to put them in manually? Or is that something I need a "Plugin" for? Thank you for your time and for making this video. Have a great day.
Ok I lied, I have one more question. On my contact page if someone messages me using the form where does it go to? I am using the free version as you made in this video. I tried using it and sent a message but I never got a notification anywhere. Again thank you for making this video and taking the time to help me and answer my questions. Have a great day.
Hi mate, You will be able to link your domain to this website. Or use your domain provider and create a WordPress website through their hosting. Where did you buy your domain from?
@@nathanieldavis8761 Okay. I think you used Hostpapa. What you can do is create a website by watching this tutorial and then connect your domain to the Wordpress website when you have finished creating your website.
g day dear Steward - howdy Thank you for this video, Well it would be awesome if you would deliver a presentation that covers the WP 5.9 topics, like FSE, Block-Theming etc. This presentation meets the needs of many many wordpress-users: 5.9 is so awesome and outstanding new - and here the community needs some amazing, clear and concise educational videos. Keep up your channel - wordpress is the coolest cms beneath the sun ;)
@@StewartGauld good day dear Steward - many thanks for the quick reply - great to hear from you, This is just great: i look forward to your future videos. Some awesome videos Keep up your awesome channel - it is definitly a great channel..Hats off to you it really inspires me!! 😳♥♥♥
@@StewartGauld i see, thnx man! It's just odd that other youtubers who have the same content like yours said that i can monetize it even in free version!
Hi mate, Thanks for the feedback. These are the same thing. Initially, WordPress was designed for creating blogs however, you can create any type of website with WordPress.
Hi, Do you have any video about wordpress . org? Is it possible to have one website that can serve two audience? For example English and Arabic? English visitors will only see English written posts, and Arabic visitors will see the Arabic posts only. Note: It seems that Arabic version of WordPress doesn't contain Menus. Is it possible to use Google Sites to create a small business website? To me it seems to be easier to handle but they don't have an e-commerce platform? Do you have any video explaining how to create an e-commerce website? Is there any free website that you can start till the website generate some revenue? #Theme name is Hever
Is it possible to have one website that can serve two audience? For example English and Arabic? English visitors will only see English written posts, and Arabic visitors will see the Arabic posts only. - Yes there are plugins that allow you to translate language based on the audience. Is it possible to use Google Sites to create a small business website? To me it seems to be easier to handle but they don't have an e-commerce platform? - Yes you sure can! No you cannot sell on Google sites. Do you have any video explaining how to create an e-commerce website? Is there any free website that you can start till the website generate some revenue? Yes we typically recommend Ecwid or Wix and then integrating Ecwid. You can do this for free. Just check out our recent videos on this.

Just came across your channel 👏 As a beginner, your tutorials are very insightful.. Thank you
Happy to hear that! You are very welcome!
Stewart, it's pesky me again. I go to the place ( 3:39 ) where you show the list of fees. On top I see where you show "start with a free site" There is no such option now ion the same page. By the way I already have a domain. Would that be why I don't have a free option?
Hey mate,
Did you buy the domain through WordPress?
@@StewartGauld No, I bought it through my web hosting provider where I have several other domains.
thank you sir! however I coudn't locate the socials button when I clicked on the menus button. secondly, I couldn't add block on the bar where I need to embed my youtube videos
Hey! I'll look into this.
@@StewartGauld thank you so much
Amazing tutorial. 👍
Glad you think so!
Thanks for the video...When I m adding options in Menu , URL box is not showing...what to do?
Hey,
What do you mean URL box?
Thanks for the tutorial. Question, by the wordpress "visit site" button the only way you can access the free site you have created?
Welcome. No you can start your site and then select the free plan.
Really good WordPress video!
Cheers mate!
This is extremely helpful. However I am at the step where you go to appearance and click the option menu and that option isn't showing for me? Do you know why this may be happening?
Hey mate,
What do you see instead?
So there doesn't seem to be any need for Divi or Elemental? With this theme, you can add block, buttons etc the some as those paid ones mentioned?
You are a brilliant teacher. I really have confidence to start now.
Hey Lulu,
Depends on how much customisation freedom and features you want. All have their pros and cons.
@@StewartGauld Thanks. After more research, I'll try with Gutenburg.
Thanks for this tutorial. Very helpful. I want to move my blog posts from my free WP site to another but when I do, the images keep the original url. When I delete the old site the images will go with it. I don't see a way to get to the data base. Your thoughts?
Glad it was helpful Thomas,
Are you moving over to WordPress.com or .org?
this is powerful. .
Thanks!
THANKYOUS SOO MUCH BRO
Welcome dude!

The interface may be slightly different however, you should be able to follow along okay.
Appreciated
Welcome!
Great tutorial and easy to follow. Thank you. 👍
Glad it was helpful Amanda!
Hey Stewart, another question for you. Is there a way to have the menu links (Home & Contact) go to a certain place on the same page? I hope that makes sense. Say I have an "about" button in the menu on the top and I want it to go to the about block on my home page. Is that possible?
Hey Ronnie,
Yes you can do this. This is called an anchor. You might need to search this online to find out how to do this.
Thank you so much for great tutorial. If use this wordpress free blog as my portfolio website as a free, without adding any custom domain or host, how long can i use this ? Is it gonna free forever like google blogger ?
Glad it was helpful! Yes free for ever! However, like i've mentioned this does come with limitations.
@@StewartGauld Thank you so much ❤️
Thanks, Stewart, for sharing such informative content. I would like to know where I can find themes that best suits my business niche like it may be affiliate marketing, graphic design, freelancing etc. Also please share how I can install any theme in Wordpress in free version
Thanks for the feedback. I will look into this!
Thanks for the tutorial! Unfortunately I see that the free website option is gone (at least for me) :(
Hey mate! You can still access the free plan!
Thank you for this! But my new site did not give me a template like yours, rather it displayed the "Hello world text"
Welcome! You can change all the text elements or choose another theme/template.
Great tutorial❤.But i have a question, how can i update or add new things to my website after publishing it?
Thanks! You can always edit your website when it is like.
@@StewartGauld thanks a lot
It's a very useful video and nice and clear presentation.
Glad it was helpful!
Where can I get other themes other than those on WordPress
You can buy them like Divi and others
Great tutorial THANKS Stewart for sharing it, and how can we find it on the web through google search. I did hit launch website, I did follow all your steps. Is it something else I need to follow where we can see it on the web?
Hi mate,
Ranking and optimising your website on Google search is another process in itself. We have tutorials on this.
@@StewartGauld First I want to thank you again for your step by step tutorial it helped me to create a beautiful website. Now I just got to get it where people can see it when they search for it. Because my neighbor, family and friends saying that they cant find it. Can you help me with this second process? Or direct me to the next tutorial.
I cannot find the site via google search. I can only find it if I copy and paste the URL, why is that? I did the google search console.
Hey Ruel,
It can take time for your website to rank higher in search engines like Google. You can also engage in SEO related activities to bet your competition and be found easier on Google.
This was very good! Quick question - Is it possible to import blog posts from Blogger on to this free website version?
I do not think you can. However, I will look into this.
Hey Stewart, How are you? I hope you and your family are doing well. I was wondering with the free version of WordPress is it possible to have the "Testimonials" section populate itself or do I have to put them in manually? Or is that something I need a "Plugin" for? Thank you for your time and for making this video. Have a great day.
Hey Ronnie,
I'm great thanks!
You will have to create these manually.
Take care!
Hello, I do not have "menus" on my site :((( It just isn't showed
Are you sure? You cannot find in the backend?
Why is it that the theme is not applied together with its header. How to solve
What do you mean?
Ok I lied, I have one more question. On my contact page if someone messages me using the form where does it go to? I am using the free version as you made in this video. I tried using it and sent a message but I never got a notification anywhere. Again thank you for making this video and taking the time to help me and answer my questions. Have a great day.
Hey Ronnie,
You can find these in your Google Form or the Spreadsheet you create.
I watched your video on how to set up domain. It was dope. Now do I use that email or the one I used to set up the domain
Hi mate,
You will be able to link your domain to this website. Or use your domain provider and create a WordPress website through their hosting. Where did you buy your domain from?
@@StewartGauld where ever you said buy it from. Matter of fact it was free. I think you used google. I pretty much just followed everything you did.
@@nathanieldavis8761 Okay. I think you used Hostpapa. What you can do is create a website by watching this tutorial and then connect your domain to the Wordpress website when you have finished creating your website.
I heard it doesn't rank and I can't monetize it
You can rank. But can not monetize.

Hey James,
Do you mean the social media icons?

How to put the socials up there?
You can add images and link these to your socials.
Can you monetize your blog in a free version wordpress or you need to pay?
No you cannot with the free version.
