You don’t need to hire a web designer or know how to code to build a professional website. In this step-by-step Zoom session, I’ll show you exactly how to set up your own website using HostGator and WordPress - no tech background required. I’m not a website professional, but I’ve built and maintained dozens of sites over the years, including the Perfectly Paralegal and Paralegal Cruise websites. If I can do it, so can you - and I’ll walk you through it one click at a time.
We’ll cover:
Choosing the right hosting plan
Registering your free domain name (or using your existing name if you already paid for one)
Installing and setting up WordPress
Creating multiple pages (Home, About, Services, Contact, etc.)
Exploring free and paid WordPress themes to get the design you want
Using ChatGPT to help write your content, bios, and service descriptions
Customizing layout, colors, and navigation
Learning how to manage your site so you stay in control
Whether you're launching a freelance paralegal business, creating a career portfolio, or just want a simple online presence, this class will give you the tools and confidence to make it happen.
