How to use WordPress as a Website Builder

how to use wordpress as a website builder

WordPress is the most popular website publishing tool on the planet. It is also one of the simplest.

Millions of people use WordPress to create their websites and this includes many top brands. From small businesses to large corporations, WordPress is their first choice.

But please note that there is a difference between wordpress.com (the paid version) and wordpress.org (the open source free version).

WordPress.org is the platform that most of the internet is built upon, not wordpress.com.

Around half of the websites on the entire internet are built on it.

Most of the web developers in the world know how to use wordpress, so having it as the platform for your business website means that costs for labour on your website are kept low, and you can even just do all of the work yourself.

WordPress also has one of the most active and helpful communities in the world and because of its masive popularity, pretty much everything is built to integrate with wordpress.

Whilst you can build your entire site for free, you will still need to pay your ‘internet lease’ (so to speak) to the big boy internet in the form of what’s called ‘hosting’. 

Hosting is explained in more detail in our free website builder course inside our members area along with other associated website-related costs.

Do I need a Page Builder for WordPress?

You will hear many people talk about page builders in wordpress.

WordPress has its own version of a page builder called ‘gutenberg’. It keeps getting better and better and introducing more drag and drop and beginner-friendly no-code functionality.

You can absolutely design a website without a third party page builder in wordpress, using only gutenberg.

The reason a lot of people use third-party paid page builders, the most well-known (due to the YouTube marketers) being elementor, beaver and divi to name a few, is because they allow faster, more design focused website building without the need to code.

They also offer extensive tutorials and support in one place because you are paying for them. They are ideal for new website owners with no coding skills who are in a hurry to get their website live and for whom cutting edge design is important.

The problem is that most wordpress website page builders upsell you for additional fucntionality like wordpress.com does. (but not wordpress.org).

In terms of value for money and speed of building a site, the best third-party page builder is not actually really very well known. It only has around 20,000 users at time of last checking but it’s an up-and-comer and a real market disruptor which is what we like here at Anthony Tedd.com.

It has far more functionality than all the other wordpress page builders and the support is far superior. It has lots of conversion focussed functionalty that you pay a fortune for elsewhere or simply can’t get (which is the stuff that pulls in customers for your business which is what really counts).

It’s also the easiest to use and has full video training for every single aspect of the software. You really can’t go wrong with it.
