Appreciate you Whitney !
Hi Whitney. do you offer one on one consultations??? I need help, desperately!
Thanks for this video. God bless 🙌
Hey I followed you until 13:09. I look at my url for my website and it’s still saying that it isn’t secure. How can I fix that ?
Thank you in advance
Thanks for this detailed tutorial
Thank you so much for making this video!! You are awesome at explaining things in these videos!
thanks I'm just now thinking about starting a blog and your information has been so helpful
Hi there. First of all thank you so much for your time putting this together! I have followed this video step by step to set up my new blog including the steps in the beginning about an SSL certificate and changing the URL at the end. However, the website is still coming up as "not secure". Any ideas on why that might be so? Thanks so much
Aren’t there copyrighted issues when adding videos from other websites/YouTube
Hi! Thank you for this information!!! ❤️.. I just have a quick question.. I have a home decor website on square spaces platform. Does the square space platform work well with word press?
This video was extremely helpful – thank you!!!! The only part that was not working for me was the part where I update the social media links??? I'm not sure if wordpress has been updated – it may be different from when you created this video…..? Any insight is appreciated 🙂
Thank you.
Thank you so much for this. Do you recommend using the same theme you used in this demo for a site that I plan to monetize? or is there a paid theme that is preferable. I'll like to start on the right foot. Your content is God send!
Hello! love your videos and so much great information!! Where do I find the video on linking emails that was mentioned in this video? Thank you for your time!
LOVED THIS!
I heard that blue host is really good
Thank you whitney bonds! you're an inspiration and an excellent teacher. 🙂
Hey Whitney! Do you still recommend using Elementor as a page builder or would you recommend just using Gutenberg for both page builder and blog posts? I’ve been reading a lot of bloggers are making the switch to Gutenberg and wanted to get your thoughts on that.
Whitney, Thank you for all the information you’ve shared. I LOVE the new look of my blog. However, I definitely have a problem with elementor and I wonder if you know the fix. I already had ten posts on my site when I did everything in this video. From what I’m seeing, I cannot customize my blog page without going to elementor pro. I now have an educational blog page with lots of fashion blog posts. Please help. If I need to go pro that’s what I’ll do, but if I don’t have to spend more money right now, that would be better. I’ve spent two days working on the blog and don’t want that time to be wasted. ❤️
Hi Whitney, I was wondering if you could shed some light on when to know if you need WooCommerce or an alternative for selling digital products on the blog?
