Today, I want to share an exciting achievement with you. Recently, I completed a WordPress course on Coursera and earned my certificate. This journey taught me many useful things about building websites and creating amazing digital experiences. Let me tell you more about why I chose this course and what I learned.
Why WordPress?
WordPress is one of the most popular tools for creating websites. It powers more than 40% of all websites on the internet! Whether you want to start a blog, set up an online store, or create a professional portfolio, WordPress makes it simple. I decided to learn WordPress because it’s powerful, user-friendly, and widely used by individuals and businesses around the world.
The Course on Coursera
The course I took on Coursera was well-designed and easy to follow. It was perfect for beginners like me, with no confusing technical terms. Step by step, I learned how to:
- Build a website from scratch using WordPress.
- Choose and customize themes to make a website look beautiful.
- Add plugins to improve website features.
- Create pages, posts, and menus to organize content.
- Make websites mobile-friendly and fast.
The course also covered tips on how to manage websites securely and ensure they work smoothly.
What I Loved About the Course
One of the best things about this course was how practical it was. I didn’t just watch videos—I also worked on real projects. This hands-on practice helped me understand how to use WordPress tools and make changes to a website. The instructors explained everything clearly, and I could learn at my own pace.
At the end of the course, I felt confident that I could create a professional website and help others do the same. And the certificate I earned is a proud addition to my achievements.
How This Helps My Work
As some of you know, I am working on an exciting platform called CSR Guruji. It’s a place where NGOs and companies can come together to create positive social change. Learning WordPress will help me improve this platform and make it easier for users to connect, share projects, and collaborate.
Now, I can apply what I learned to make the platform more engaging and user-friendly. It feels great to know that the skills I’ve gained can make a real difference in helping others.
Final Thoughts
Learning never stops, and every new skill brings us closer to our goals. Completing this WordPress course is just one step in my journey, but it’s a big one. If you’re thinking of learning something new, I encourage you to go for it. Whether it’s WordPress, coding, art, or something else, every skill adds value to your life.
Thank you for being part of my journey. Let’s keep growing, learning, and building together.
Stay tuned for more updates on my projects and experiences. See you next time!
