Working with WordPress

Firstly you need to download and install WordPress. Then publish it to your web hosting account. Create a subfolder if you wish to avoid conflicts with previous websites.After all the “admin” is complete, you can start having some fun. 
Choose and download a theme that best suits you and install it. Then customise this theme in order to create a portfolio website for yourself.

I downloaded WordPress from wordpress.org, and uploaded the files to the server and host on one.com, using filezilla, as shown on a video course on Lynda.com (Installing and Running WordPress: Shared Hosting by Jeff Star.

I chose a theme called Hestia, because it was quite editable, and had a nice and clean look.
I choose the theme Ashe, because that theme was pretty blank and «easy» to make my own.

I’ve made som small changes to make it look a bit more like a Portfolio.
