In this complete step-by-step tutorial, you’ll learn how to create a fast, professional, and fully responsive website using WordPress and the brand new Divi 5 builder. Whether you’re a beginner who has never built a website before or someone who already has experience with WordPress and wants to level up with modern workflows, this tutorial will guide you from start to finish. Get Webhosting: https://webhosting83.com Start An Emaillist: https://ferdy.com/omnisend Get The Divi Theme: https://ferdy.com/divi We start with the absolute basics: choosing a domain name, getting reliable web hosting, and installing WordPress. You’ll learn what hosting is, why your server location matters, and how to get your website live on your own domain. From there, we install the Divi theme and dive into Divi 5, which has been rebuilt from the ground up to be faster, cleaner, and more powerful than previous versions. Inside Divi 5, you’ll learn how to visually build your website by dragging and dropping elements, styling text, images, buttons, and layouts without writing any code. I’ll show you how to work with sections, rows, columns, presets, and global styles so you can design faster and stay consistent across your entire website. You’ll also learn how to use global colors, fonts, and sizing (including responsive typography with clamp) so your website looks great on desktop, tablet, and mobile automatically. We’ll build a complete real-world website together, including a homepage with clear call-to-actions, subtle animations, proper spacing, and a professional layout that builds trust with visitors. You’ll learn how to create blog pages and custom post templates with the Divi Theme Builder, so every blog post has the same clean design with featured images, author info, reading time, and styled content. I’ll also show you how to work with custom post types and custom fields, so you can create structured content like tutorials or projects. On top of design, we’ll cover important practical topics such as SEO basics, performance tips, and how to structure your site so visitors are more likely to contact you or become clients. You’ll learn how to create menus, pages like About, Blog, and Contact, and how to use ready-made Divi layouts to speed up your workflow. We’ll also look at animations, hover effects, responsive layouts, and how to reuse sections and templates across multiple pages to save time. By the end of this tutorial, you won’t just know how to build a website — you’ll understand a professional workflow you can reuse for your own projects or client websites. This means you can start building websites for yourself, for your business, or even for others as a service. Many people have already used these methods to turn web design into a source of income, and you can do the same. Timestamps are included so you can jump to any part of the tutorial, and you’ll find extra resources linked below to help you continue learning about Divi 5, custom headers and footers, advanced layouts, and more. If you follow along step by step, you’ll end this video with a beautiful, modern WordPress website that you fully understand and can confidently maintain and expand. 🎬 00:00 Intro 🌐 04:34 Get Web Hosting 🧩 09:21 Install WordPress & Choose a Free Domain 🧹 14:10 Clean Up Your WordPress Website 🛠️ 17:51 Create a Maintenance Page 🎨 24:10 WordPress Themes 🚀 25:34 Get the Divi Theme 🏷️ 30:31 Create a Site Title 🧭 33:49 Create Your Menu with Pages 🖼️ 39:49 Upload a Favicon & Logo 🧱 The Divi Builder ✂️ 43:04 Remove the Header & Footer 🧩 46:47 The Divi Builder Interface 🎨 55:34 Setting Up Global Colors 🔠 58:07 Create Headings with Clamps 📐 01:06:57 Adjust the Site Width 🦸 01:07:51 Create the Hero Section 📱 01:24:01 Responsive Design ⭐ 01:29:56 Build Credibility ⚡ 01:40:58 Work Faster with Presets 🎓 01:48:11 Courses, Tutorials & Recommendations 📋 01:57:32 Copy & Paste 🖼️ 02:01:45 Background Images & Overlays 🕘 02:06:56 History ❓ 02:08:38 FAQ Section (Great for SEO) 🧭 02:15:31 Create a Custom Header 🦶 02:17:03 Create a Custom Footer 🏷️ 02:17:37 Create a Title Template ⚙️ 02:25:37 Work Even Faster ✨ 02:32:26 Animations 🪄 02:40:09 Hover Animations 📩 02:45:10 Create the Contact Page Using Templates 🚀 02:51:04 What’s Next? #wordpress #divi #divi5

About This Video

Making a website has never been easier, and in this Divi 5 tutorial I show you step-by-step how to create a fast, professional and fully responsive WordPress website. We build a real website with a clean design, clear call-to-actions, subtle animations and proper spacing—the kind of website that instantly feels trustworthy. I also show you how Divi 5 works: you can click anywhere and change text, spacing, colors and styling visually, and with presets and global styles you can work way faster and stay consistent across the whole site. We start at the absolute basics: domain name, web hosting, and installing WordPress. I explain what hosting is (a computer that’s on 24/7), why your server location matters, and how to get your site live on your own domain. Then we install the Divi theme and jump into Divi 5 (rebuilt from the ground up, smaller code, blazing fast). Along the way I clean up WordPress so it’s not overwhelming, and I share practical tips for SEO—like choosing a site title people actually search for. After that we go deeper: creating blog pages and using the Divi Theme Builder so every post has the same design (featured image, author, date, reading time, styled content). I even show how you can work with custom post types and custom fields, plus how to set up a simple maintenance/coming-soon opt-in so you can build an email list before your site is live.
