Now, that you installed the theme, remember that you can customize your theme more later. We now want to get familiar with the back office and set things up!


Let's concentrate on configuring and optimizing SEO, Google Analytics and Webmaster tools:

1. First, create a new user name and do not use the default user/admin. This is important for security reasons to have your own unique user name.

2. Remove the default theme header and add the name of your website. Do the same with the tagline to delete the theme default, then, add a unique tagline of your own or leave blank.

3. Activate plug-ins:

  • Activate Anti-spam- I use the WebVitaly plug-in. You set it and forget it.
  • Activate Social Media buttons- I likethe Social Feather plug-in.

4. After activating All-in-one-Seo plug-in:

    • You will go to the top of your dashboard> All-In-One SEO> General Settings, scroll down to Home Page settings> fill out Home title, Home description, and Keywords.

      5. Moving on down the page to webmaster verification:

      • Submit your site to Google and Bing webmaster tools, along with sitemap.

      Hi Paula, thanks for a great basic and simple but complete checklist for creating a new website. Finally I got where to add subdomain as I kept looking for it but overlooked it at the end of the Site Domain. Thank you & have a great day :)
