    Looking up a how to use WordPress for beginners 2023 guide can be an overwhelming experience for most. After all, WordPress has a slew of features and options that can be confusing to use at first.
    Thankfully the popularity of WordPress has it, so there is an abundance of tutorials detailing how to use the software.
    With this in mind, if you’re interested in diving into WordPress, you’re in the right place. Down below will discuss some of the key features of WordPress that you’ll need to know to get started.
    Once you have the foundation apprehended, you can then make your first steps to make a site of your own. How exciting! Let’s take a look!
    WordPress.com VS WordPress.org
    Before diving into a WordPress website guide, it’s best to know the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org. WordPress.com is where you can go to create a website right through WordPress without a web host.
    The more popular and superior option, WordPress.org, is where you’d go to download and install WordPress onto your site.
    Although this guide is helpful for either option, installing WordPress through a web host tends to be much more versatile for website purposes.
    On the other hand, WordPress.com is much easier to get started with and is excellent for a simple website. Nevertheless, let’s take a look at what you should know about WordPress.
    Understanding the WordPress Dashboard
    When editing or doing anything to your site using WordPress, the dashboard is the most vital area to familiarize yourself with.
    Getting to your WordPress dashboard can either by logging in through WordPress.com or by typing in /wp-admin to the end of your site’s domain. Keep in mind, WordPress will have to be installed and set up for you to do this.
    Once logged in, take a glance at all the various tabs going up and down the dashboard. Click on each just to see what the point of each one is, but don’t get too far ahead. You may feel overwhelmed at first, but don’t worry. You’ll get to know the functionality of everything sooner than you think.
    Choosing a Theme
    After familiarizing yourself with the WordPress dashboard, now comes the fun part of actually editing your site. The first step in the process involves your WordPress theme. A WordPress theme is what gives your site its overall look. There are plenty of WordPress themes to choose from, some free, some hundreds of dollars.
    Regardless, to change your WordPress theme, all you have to do is hover over the appearance tab and click on themes.
    Take a glance through the themes right from WordPress if you’d like, or upload one you purchased from a site like ThemeForest. Whatever route you go with, make sure you pick a theme that fits the aesthetic of your site.
    Also, always check to see if the theme you installed has demo content available. If it does, definitely install it since demo content makes it much easier to edit your site than a blank option fully. Most themes have instructions on how to install the demo content so follow the instructions closely.
    Posts
    Posts are arguably the essential part of the WordPress dashboard, primarily if you aim to make a blog. A post is what you’ll go to whenever you make a new blog and can add images, text, videos, etc. A traditional WordPress home page will show your newest posts, and you can divvy the posts up by creating categories.
    Pages
    Many WordPress for beginners tutorials brush over the importance of pages. Although pages aren’t as heavily utilized as posts, it’s still an essential aspect of your site.
    Under the page tab, stagnant areas of your site, like an about section or FAQs, are best suited as a page. WordPress walks you through the process, and it’s pretty easy to understand.
    Header and Footer
    The header and footer refer to the top and bottom bar of your site, respectively. The header is excellent for putting categories and pages for people to access your site easily.
    For example, if you have a music website, you can put different categories (rock, jazz, metal, etc.) and your about section on the top header. Both can be edited in the header etc.
    Menus and Categories
    The best thing you can do to get the most of your site is to view a few WordPress website tutorial videos on menus and categories. Both menus and categories are essential for organizing your site. Categories can be edited under the posts tab, whereas menus can be edited under the appearance section.
    Nevertheless, now that you’ve gone through our how to use WordPress for beginners 2023 guide, be sure to take a glance at in-depth blogs and videos to further your knowledge on the subject.
