he website that you?re looking at is installed on WordPress and I got it all for free. In this quick tutorial I?m going to guide you step-by- step on how to create a similar web page using the WordPress blogging software – Although many business’ use it for their websites. 
An image of the WordPress Control Panel is shown to the right of this article.
Create a free blow with WordPress here to see whether the system is for you -?WordPress.org.
1)?Hosting?-?First off all, you need good web hosting for WordPress. I recommend going with a web host that has support for WordPress such as iPower or my own hosting through?Townsville Internet. My host is iPower.com where I recieve unlimited space and bandwidth however my servers are located in America. With?Townsville Internet our servers are located in Melbourne and it is possible to add a?.com.au?domain to.
Yes, you could also go with free web hosting, but I don?t recommend that, as WordPress requires a database to work and even the best free web hosts have problems with this (this was my own experience with Freehostia.com, I then went for paid hosting).
Or you can pick a?WordPress hosting provider. You will be fine with the cheapest plans (unless you are going to make your website a really big one).
Once you get the hosting if your need some assistance with installing WordPress contact me directly via our?Contact Us page.
2)?Installing a Theme?- Once wordpress is installed all it’s a matter of doing is searching to web for a while using a Google. I recommend keywords like, “Free WordPress Themes” or “Free WordPress templates topic”. These searches will be bound to return a Theme which can be downloaded and then installed into your wordpress.
3)?Adding Content?- Adding content has never been easier. All that is required is to either click on the?add page?or?add post?link in the WordPress Editor.
Below are a few examples of template’s I’ve found and then have edited using the WordPress Content Management System.
Well that’s how easy it is to get your website up and running in as little as?3 steps. Anymore questions feel free to? contact me.
