    Wordpress makes it very easy to create a website without coding.
    With Bluehost, WordPress is preinstalled on your website, saving your a step

    Hi Daragh,
    It was a great video! I have some friends that are new to WordPress, and I have suggested that they use the Astra theme for their website. I think this is the best theme and works with every type of website. I am sure this video will be a great help for them, and it will guide them in the right direction. I gained several new insights that I am looking forward to trying, and I will definitely share this video with my friends to help them with WordPress as well.

    So this cleared some things up for me so thank you for that. Quick question though. I use a transparent background and whenever I create a new page and add a new section (such as a header for example), it adds it to the very top of the page behind the header. Do you know why that might be?
