So make sure you watch this video till the end to learn how to do it. Okay. I'm Bryan from Website Learners and let's start making our website using the Divi theme To make a website using Divi, We're going to do three parts. The first part is to launch your WordPress website. Now, since Divi is a WordPress theme, you need to first launch your WordPress site in order to use Divi So in order to launch our site, we're going to do two steps. The first step is to choose a name for your website. So to choose your website name, just click the link below this video, and it'll take you to this page. Now enter the name you want here. I'm going to enter webinvents.com and click search. Now you can see that this name is available Once you choose your name, you can go to the next step, which is to get your domain name and hosting.Domain is the name of your website, which people need to enter to visit your site. And hosting is the place where your website's files are stored like your website's images, and files. So to get this domain name and hosting, Lets click add to cart and then click continue. And it will take you to this page. This is the place where we are going to get our hosting and domain. Now here it will ask us to choose a hosting plan. Now hosting is needed so that your website is visible on the internet and can be accessed by anyone. And as you can see here hosting provides the space to store your your website on the internet. So based on the number of websites that you want to build, you can choose a plan here. I want to build one website. So I'm going to choose this plan Now here you can choose how long you want the hosting for. You can choose any length here. As you go longer, You can see that we are getting a discount. No, I'm going to choose 12 months and click continue. Well here you can see that we're getting our domain with this webadmins.com for free and a hosting Now, both of these are valid for one year, which means once we complete the purchase, our site will be live on the internet for one year. So to get our domain and hosting, let's fill up these details enter your payment details and click order now. Okay. So now we have successfully placed the order and we've got our domain and hosting. So now if we click here, you can see that we have successfully got our hosting and domain. Okay. So once you've got your domain and hosting your website should now be live on the internet. So to check that let's open a new tab Now If we type web admins.com and press enter, you can see that we have got a brand new website on the name which we selected. Now sometimes it might take a few minutes for the domain to become active on the internet. If you're not seeing this, try refreshing after 5 to 10 minutes. Okay. So now we've successfully launched our website on the internet Once you have launched your site, we can now go to part two of this tutorial. which is to set up the Divi theme in wordpress So once you set up the Divi theme, you will be able to start making your website using Divi, Now in order to set up the Divi theme, we are going to do five steps.

Now to activate Divi, click save and it will be activated. So now we have successfully set up the Divi theme in WordPress, which means we can now go to the final part of this tutorial, which is to start building your website So to build our website, we are going to do four steps. The first step is to create your homepage. So homepage is the page, which everyone will see when they first land on your website. So the create our homepage let's go to our site Right now you can see this on a home base, which is empty. Now to create our home page, Let's go to new and click page Now here we need to enter a name for our page. I'm going to call this page as home. Now to start building your homepage, Just click use Divi builder And now you will get three options to create your page. First, we're going to see this option where you can build your beads using layouts. So layouts are ready-made designs, which you can use to build your page. So let's click browse layouts Now as you can see, we have different types of layouts here. Now let's say you like this design, just click on it And you can see a preview here. Now, if you want to use this design for your page, just click use this layout and the entire design will be added to your page. So as you can see, we have got the exact design into our page. Now once you've got this design, how do you change this content? So let's say you want to change this text. All you have to do is, just select the text, and then enter your own text. Now in the same way, you can change any text you want. Just select the text and then enter your text. Now, if you want to change the text on this button, just double click it. And then change the button text here, as you can see, the text has been changed. So that's how easy it is. You can change everything on this page in the same way. Now, if you want to change this image, just double click it, select the image here Now just drag and drop an image from your computer. you can see that the image has been changed. So that's how easy it is. Now in the same way you can change any part of this page. Once you're done with all the changes, Just click publish and now if we click exit, You can see that we have a new page on our site, which has all the content we added. So you can create any number of pages you want in the same way. Okay. So now we have created our homepage, but we do have a problem here. Now, if you open a new window and go to our site's home page You can see that we still have the default page, which is empty. And the page we created appears on a separate page called /home. Now, instead of appearing like this, how do you want to make this page as our home page, which is here. So next, we're going to see how you can set this page you created as your homepage. So to set our home page, Lets go to our site And then click dashboard. Now go to settings and click Reading. Now here, you can see that we have this option called Your homepage displays. Here we need to first choose a static page and then select the page we created as our homepage. So let's click here and then select home, which is the page we created Once you selected just click save changes. Okay. So now we have successfully set the page we created as our homepage. Now, if we want to go to our homepage, just click refresh, and you can see that we have got our homepage, which is here. So this is how you can set the page you created as your homepage. So now, you know how you can build a page by importing layouts, but what if instead of importing a layout, you want to create a page from scratch. So how do you start from a blank page like this and then start building your page? It's very easy. So next we're going to see how you can create a new page from scratch. So to create a new page from scratch, let's go to new. And click page No, let's say you want to create a contact page. just enter the page title as contact And now to start building the page, just click use Divi builder Now instead of layout, let's choose build from scratch. Now, this will give you a blank page where you can start creating our page Now to start creating this page, just click the plus icon and you will get these three options. No, if you want to create a section like this, which uses the full width of the page, just choose full width and you will get different types of full width items, which you can add to your page Now, as I want to create a header for this page, I am going to click full width header.And you will get this section. No, as we did before, if you want to change this text, just select it, and then enter your text. Now to add the next section, just click the plus icon. This time we will select regular as we don't need the full width And now you will find different types of sections. You can add to your page.

So now if we click exit You can see that a new contact page has been added to our site. So now, you know how you can create a new page from scratch. So you can create any number of pages you want in the same way. Next let's go to the third step of building our website, which is to create your menu Now, as you can see, we don't have a menu here. So to create our menu, let's go here and then click theme customizer then click menus. Now to create a menu, Let's click here And now we need to give a name for our menu. So I'm going to call this menu as main menu and next you need to choose where your menu needs to appear. So if you want the menu to appear in this area, just choose primary menu and then click next. Okay. Now we can start adding items to our menu. So to add the items, just click add items And here you can see the pages which we've created now select the pages which you want to add to your menu.
