In this Elementor tutorial for beginners, I’ll walk you through every single step of creating a beautiful new WordPress website — with ZERO coding! Elementor is by far my favorite way of creating a website for any business, portfolio or personal project, just because of how easy it is to master. 😎 You’ll need to start with webhosting and a domain name.

I HAVE WASTED SO MANY HOURS ON ELEMENTOR until this video. i’ve takin many other courses including paid courses (including UDEMY) and none are in the same class (no pun intended) as this one hour from Wes. i was wasting my time and money trying to learn elsewhere. this covered about 95% of what i needed to know. still have one main question: if i have 4 videos on one row and someone wants to watch one of the videos, how do i make each video open by itself bigger? before Wes i had so many questions and now just 1. anyway, it’s a waste of time looking elsewhere. thank you wes!!
Thx for watching Andy and the kind words. This might be of help to you: https://elementor.com/help/lightbox/ 👍
@Wes McDowell wes, i have to tell you that i’ve watched a couple more tutorials and i swear nothing comes close to your video. i am now having problems with someone else’s header that he made for my website so now i’ll watch your HEADER TUTORIAL. i am sure it will give me the answer i’m looking for!!
I could never imagine going back to developing themes by hand. Such an excellent tool that increases my productivity (and thus income) 10 fold. What I am interested in though, is developing custom blocks for Elementor 🙂
Glad it was helpful Jay! 😎
Thank you very much! This is really helpful! 🥰👍
You’re welcome 😊
@Wes McDowell Thought it was limited with a design (only work for codes) but you’ve proofed that it was not, and it’s really handy to design like the coding one. Glad that I found your channel.
Wow! Now this is a tutorial…Step by step. Thank you Wes
You’re welcome Pattie and thx for watching! 👏
Very helpful. Thank you very much🌹🌹💕💕
You’re welcome 😊 Floria!
I’m so glad to have come across your tutorial after hours and days of trying to figure things out in a different way. Thanks for showing that starter packs also work with Elementor. Every step you outlined were clear, straightforward and super helpful. I’ve learned a lot, thank you!! Can’t wait to implement everything on my website ☺️
That is great to hear! 🙌 Thx for watching too!
Nice
Thanks!
Hi Wes, Thank you for all of your great video’s and content. I have a question- In the tutorial you don’t mention how to edit or delete the pre made Header in the Outdoor Adventure template. How do you access the header in the template as it seems to sit behind the block containing the photograph? And how do you edit or delete it? Many thanks, David
Hey David, if you watch till the end I link you to the next video which covers that. Cheers!
@Wes McDowell is the outdoor adventure template still available? I can’t seem to find it!
I loved this course, but do I need to buy Vista to edit the headers ?
Great vid thanks! What about the blue host page builder? Is that just something basic whereas this plugin offers more customizations???
You’re welcome Dave! I just use blue host for web hosting and to create a domain name. Yup – elementor provides more designs and customization options.
Thank you so much, you are helping me to decite to go for Elementor. Greetings from Amsterdam
Happy to help and greetings from the US 👍👋!
Hi!
i was following along with you but when i wanted to change the image of the hero section in the elementor background section i dont see the theme picture as a background. Also, when i chose the black of the hero image it doest select the whole picture. If i add my image insteda then it does not cover the whole screen. I tried adjusting width, height, cover, non repeat but nothing works. A week ago everything was ok. May be iaccidentely changed some setting but i have no idea what settings. Is there is way i can set everything to default or any other way out?
HELP! I keep trying to get this theme but when it opens it’s Astra and I have created all the pages in Elementor but it is not publishing! Like the Elementor doesn’t even exist when I go back to the WP dashboard! What am I missing?
Great tutorial though! It did work on another site I did!
Thanks for the update!
You bet! Thx for watching Stella!
This is the best tutorial I’ve found in the youtube. No unnecessary things to tell, you just straight to the point in what every beginner needs to learn.
Thank you so much for watching and the kind words. 🙌👏 That’s always my goal with these videos!
