Structure of Your WordPress Website

We are now going to set up the structure of your website. Do this we are going to create "Pages." These are not to be confused with "Posts"

So to set up this framework of pages, we are doing to go to our WordPress dashboard, and under the "Pages" section, we are going to click "Add New"

This will open up the area where you create new pages. Where I've written "ADD YOUR TITLE HERE" is where you put your page name. Here you need to write "Home." Your sites homepage will be the first one we'll create. Don't worry about content yet, for now we are just building the structure of your site. You can edit the content of the pages at anytime.

Once you've entered your page title, hit publish.

Now repeat these steps so you have these pages:

• Privacy Policy
• Home
• Blog
• About Me
• Contact Me

Your pages section on your dashboard should now look something like this!

These are the core pages for your site. Every website you create should contain all these pages. What you call them is up to you, for example I've gone with "About That Dude" rather than the traditional "About Me" or "About Us" title.

Next we'll go into how to set up your homepage and blog...
