1-Hour WordPress is a book that has a simple goal. Take anyone, even a complete beginner, and teach them how to build a fully functional WordPress website in an hour or less.

This book teaches on a strictly need-to-know basis, so you won't get bogged down in the technical aspects of WordPress. With around 200 screenshots, you also won't be wondering what the heck I am talking about. It's like watching over-my-shoulder. Just watch what I do, and follow along as you build your own website.

This book covers all of the important basics like: 1. Setting up with a domain registrar and host, and installing WordPress. 2. Logging into your WordPress dashboard and finding your way around. 3. Exploring the demo content that WordPress installs, including the post, page and comment. 4. Planning your website before you start working in WordPress. 5. Working your way through the important settings, and getting the site set up for success. 6. Posts v Pages are one of the most confusing aspects of WordPress for many beginners, but we cover those in depth, and you'll learn when to use a post and when to use a page. 7. Using the WYSIWYG editor to add content, and how to use categories and tags to classify and group your content. This is important as it will make your site intuitive for visitors, and the search engines. 8. Adding navigation to help your visitors. 9. Creating custom menus and adding them to your site. 10. Using widgets to add new features to your web pages. 11. WordPress defaults to a blog style homepage, but I'll show you how to set up a more traditional static homepage where you control 100% of the content. 12. Using plugins to extend the functionality of WordPress. We'll look at a number of essential plugins that I use on most of my own websites. 13. Keeping Wordpress and plugins up to date. 14. Customizing the look and feel of the site with WordPress themes. 15. How you can make money with your website by adding affiliate programs and/or Google Adsense.

In short, this book is a complete beginners guide to WordPress. Follow as you go through the book, and you can have your very own, professional looking website, in an hour or less.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

After graduating from Hull University (North Humberside, UK), I went on to do a Ph.D. at Cardiff University where I studied endocrinology in fish. After working as a research associate at Cardiff University I decided I wanted to be a teacher, so went back to University (this time Birmingham) to study for a teaching certificate.

My first teaching job took me to Tenerife, Spain where I met my wife to be. After a spell of teaching in Madrid, we went back to Tenerife. Two kids later, we now live in North Wales.

On a day to day basis, I write "How To" books and create courses related to websites, SEO and other topics of interest to anyone running a website.

Loved this. I am not very technical and websites and the like are way over my head and extremely intimidating. This step by step walk through with screen shots and arrows, was perfect for me. I, set up a website, all by myself, with the help of this book. Even I am impressed. It doesn't just drop you into the site creation either. It gets you from deciding, "Hey I need a website" to being up and running. Domain name creation, Hosting set up, Plugins, Widgets, Themes, and anything you could need. I am so thankful for this book. I am not a gushing reviewer, but I highly recommend to anyone starting out in the website creation arena.

5.0 out of 5 stars 1-hour Wordpress 2018 tutorial
Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2018

Just finished this book and I found it extremely useful. It took me about 3 hours but that’s because I needed to try the examples myself to fully understand it. I’m sure others might be a lot faster although mastering this all in 1 hour seems a little optimistic. The author explains everything in very clear sentences, therefore it’s most accessible for non-whizzkids as well. It’s full of screen-shots to clarify what he’s talking about and to check if you get the same outcome on your screen.
This teaches of course the absolute basics, but it encourages me to dive deeper into the world of Wordpress. I feel confident enough now to move to the next level. Recommended!

This book fails to mention that WordPress locks you into paying for themes which you can't edit unless you pay them first. So you can follow this book but you get stuck with an uneditable theme which you have to pay to unlock. You're not going to be building anything in one hour until you fork over the money to get rid to the garbage that you can't erase in the pages you want. So it's a failed marketing strategy IMHO.

This is the best book for creating a WordPress site. I had no idea where to start when I decided to blog. I read a ton of blogs and the messages were all over the place. This book is, hands down, the best for getting your site up and running. Andy takes you step by step with easy-to-read directions. If you're lost and don't know how to begin, read this book; you won't regret it. BTW, I had a problem with my first theme and I emailed Andy. He was very responsive, so kudos to him!

I'll be ordering more books of his to understand online marketing.

This is an American book which recommends the use of American web hosts etc. I have bought an English book called 'Build your own WordPress site' by WordPress Genie. It is no better than I-Hour WordPress, but allows a more anglified slant. I think the two books are better than one. That said, I ended up with three websites: one American; one British; and one German (my host company is 1and1.co.uk which is a german company) I was able to experiment with the first two sites making the 1and1 Managed WordPress my preferred website.
