If you want to create a video blog to promote your existing videos, or if you’d like to start vlogging and build an audience, this is the course for you.

Don’t have a programming background? No worries, we’ll start from scratch. You’ll learn how to register a domain name, set up web hosting, and install WordPress (in other words, everything you need to get your site live on the internet). Then we’ll start customizing the site with WordPress. You’ll be able to quickly and easily add content and customize the design. All without writing code.
We’ll be using the Alizee WordPress theme, which is well designed, easy to use, and completely free. This theme is also very flexible, so it can be used for just about any type of blog or portfolio website.
We’ve cut out the fluff so that you can get your website online as quickly as possible and grow your audience. Now go get started!
