Weekend plans? Learn WordPress and Build ... 😀

Hey streight, With schools shutting down due to COVID19 and remote working on the rise, I had our team update our popular beginner's guide on WPBeginner. How to learn WordPress for Free in a Week (or Less) While it says a week, I bet you can cover a lot of it just this weekend and start building something awesome. I know there's a lot of craziness and uncertainty around the whole world. But remember, in 1665 when Cambridge University closed for a year because of the Great Plague of London, a young scholar named Isaac Newton was sent home. While at home, he discovered Calculus and refined the ideas that later became his theory of gravity. In 1606, Shakespeare wrote Macbeth, King Lear, and Anthony and Cleopatra while quarantined at home. We may not be Newton or Shakespeare, but you can learn how to use WordPress to build your dream and / or improve your site, so you're stronger when all of the craziness pass away. The question is what are you going to build? To give you some ideas, I've created a list of helpful guides: - How to start a WordPress Blog - How to pick the best blogging niche - we shared 7 that are proven! - How to start an online store - How to make a website for your small business - How to start a podcast - How to make a membership site With WordPress, you can create so many revenue streams. Here are some more niche ideas: - How to create a job board with WordPress (and charge for job placement fee) - How to build an online auction site like eBay (and run online garage sales for your neighborhood) - How to create a questions and answers site (and charge for tutoring / advice) - How to create an Etsy-like store with WordPress (and sell your crafts without giving Etsy a middle-man cut) - How to create a marketplace like Amazon (and let others sell goods on your site while taking a cut of each transaction). - How to create a micro-job website like Fiverr (and help provide others with opportunities to sell virtual services while you make a side income) - How to create a Buzzfeed like website (and entertain users while earning advertising revenue). Some final thoughts Anyways, I know this weekend and the upcoming week will be long ... and I hope that these guides help you create something amazing that you'll be proud of in the next 6 months. I will be sharing more exclusive tips in our WPBeginner Engage Facebook group later this week, so make sure to join because I don't want you to miss out.
