WordPress is the site that gives people the chance to build their own websites easily and provides them with several options and customization tools that allows them to change lots of things related to the style and design of these websites.
Creating a page on your own WordPress site is one of the important things to learn and through this video tutorial, we are going to provide you with the steps that you will need to follow. There are three different steps to go through in the process of creating a page: first of all you create the page itself then you edit the page you have created, and finally you publish this page out to the readers.
Those who are new to WordPress might first need to know and understand the difference between a page and a post. The post is always about a blog content, for regular updates, for new news and feed articles, and the main idea behind the post is to define the content within, so if you are writing about an article or a newsletter, that's where you would see your post. On the other side, a page is a static one of type content such as your 'contact us' page or your 'home' page. Some people might use different other types of pages in order to advertise for their different content and that's when they might end up having about three to four static pages.
Now, how can you create your own page? Creating your own page on WordPress site is not a hard thing but there are a couple of steps which you might need to go through in order to do it correctly. It usually depends on the theme of the website because some themes might provide a custom built template and different pages.
First of all, go to the 'Page' button on the toolbar on the side of the page and it will open the list of pages which you already have. In order to create a new page, you will simply go and click on 'New Page' which is found right next to the 'Pages' title that is written on the top of the page. When you click on the button of creating a new page, you will be directed to the place where you will be asked to write a title for the page and then there is the place for the content. When it comes to the content of this page, we usually recommend using a page builder or some form of extra plugin in order to create your page ( • WordPress Plugins Tutorial; How to In... .
You could build the page according to your own personal needs and style and you could upload a specific image along the way while you are building this page - you will find this option of uploading a photo on the right side of the page. You could choose to change anything about the page when it comes to the text, such as the font, the alignment of the text, the color, etc. and this is one of the different things that prove how WordPress is helping you in creating the website the you need.
Along the way, you could choose to preview what you have already done by simply clicking on the 'preview' button that is found on the top right corner of the page. This will show you how your page will look like when published and displayed by the website viewers and visitors, so you could know if there is something that you need to change or edit or else leave everything the same as it is.
When you create a specific page in your WordPress site, you will find that a link has been also created and this is usually placed right under the page title. You could also manage to edit this link which is automatically provided to you in order to bring out something that is easy for the visitors to reach.
That's the basic way of building and creating a page on WordPress, but if you installed and activated a specific plugin, you will get a page builder that will make the whole thing easier for creating this page.
