AGREED!!!

[@alexandrialinganay1607]

I have to agree on this!

[@aredamancylife]

THANK YOU. I have literally had this for almost a year and could not figure out how to use half this stuff and other tutorials are so complicated. Literally have my website up in 3 hours!

[@livmuller7109]

Agreeed! He made this so simple, some of the other videos were long and complicated.

[@jorgecordova1197]

Thank you for the video. Saves a lot of money and time. BlueHost charges $100 per month to do what this video teaches in less than 30 minutes. Great job!

[@ruffafernandez2999]

Thank you so much!!!! I have been looking all over the place for a good tutorial and this one is the best so far! I am not very techie and I love that you really explain it so well so that regular people like me could understand.

[@RandyFenter]

I've been wandering in a swamp of confusing and contradictory signals. The author raises a lantern and offers a helping hand when you stumble among the difficult passages. Thank you!

[@bellissi]

Only half way through your tutorial and already I'm way further than I got with Bluehost support. Thank you so much. Best video on this I've seen. You're a legend and a gent. Cheers.

[@stayfittraining]

OMG this has helped me so much! I was so overwhelmed with this and just deleting all that stuff I didn't need reduced my anxiety a million percent!

[@julissamatos2990]

Thank You so much ! i went from not knowing what to do at all to now being able to navigate with confidence because of this informative video .

[@lizk6442]

Love bluehost. Best interface imo very clean and simple back end.

[@BeTrue2Yourself413]

Thank you so much for the super helpful content. Good speed!

[@rickschultz5008]

This was so helpful and helped me make the decision to move forward with word press and blue host to build my website! Thank you!

[@chandlerRachelle]

Bluehost has changed their site just enough when it comes to accessing templates the Site Building Options that your video is no longer a direct walk-through. If you could update this, it would be helpful. Otherwise thank you! so much I didn't know before and was getting frustrated.

[@jeanette6168]

Thank you so much for this!! I learned so much and it made so much sense!

[@ivlivs.c3666]

this was the clearest and most useful explanation of how to set up a wp site I've ever watched. hope restored! Thank you!

[@MsSteffe2]

Awesome! You probably just saved me a weeks worth of work. Thanks!

[@JenniferLin]

Thanks for the quick tutorial.

[@WanderwithJon]

It should be stated that most of Elementor's plugins require you to subscribe to them. Despite that, you're video is absolutely helpful. Thank you!

[@nutangupta559]

[@dronedna6819]

Nice and Simple tutorial, probably the furthest I managed to get, could not manage to downlaod a free template on astra though I did not get started button So had to do everything from scratch Thanks for the tutorial though full marks from me 😁

[@nishaparmar105]

[@Youcanstartin]

[@evanm076]

Thank you new subbie

[@AELL1020]

Thank you sir this so useful to as

[@undathac]

If I clicked "create domain later", how do I update it after I create my account?

[@RG-gs5pr]

great & informative video (especially the astra bit), saved me a ton of time! Do you have any ideas on how I can change the homepage/main landing page image to a video instead? I have the file I want as an mp4 on my computer. would I need to change the code? (I'm still quite new at this and don't know much about coding) would love your input!

[@Elliemelly00]

Hey I followed the same steps but astra isn’t showing up?

[@joshbrown6728]

Is that payment plan(as he mentioned at the start) the only thing you will need pay for to start everything? Or do you need to pay for other things?

[@charmed2284]

I'm not sure if I'm using Astra right, in order to get to it I had to hit appearance >themes>astra options, then on the right of the page was the "see library" link, where it adverties 180+ starter templates. But it seems like for every thing I searched nothing was available or there was few options. Coffee 5 options, Flowers (no results), cat themes, no results, sunflowers nothing. It seemed like basic things weren't available in the starter templates. Even the same thing when going to the actual website. Looked for cooking only two templates came up one was premium. It seems odd.

[@egidijad.6119]

Ha! Thank you so much :)

[@MediaMix12]

wow very nice thanks

[@SuperDarren2010]

Very helpful indeed to a newbie like me. Do you have any on writing posts or monetisation.

[@marjorierodriguez6920]

you are great

[@terifutral8101]

This was a good video. I accidentally closed it out and had stuff saved so when I go back to do it like you are, I can’t get to the same point for the templets. I just want or need a single basic page with some info and my link along with a place to have my customer add there name and email.

[@ramonbullock6630]

Cool edit :D

[@balurathod6159]

Very nice

[@marcelabravo7623]

Thank you for posting this video, can you please tell me how to add the "share social media buttons" in a blog? Thank you!!

[@fadijiayoola8469]

Awesome

[@cuol5675]

is there a way to make the scrolling smoother and doesn't make it look like I'm scrolling thru pictures ? like add an animation/transition when scrolling down or up, I hope you know what I mean.

[@legendaryengram751]

thanks

[@jerrybossard]

What do you guys think about Google Sites vs using WordPress? Pros / Cons?? Thanks!

[@Dbshorts159]

Nice video

[@sarran09]

awesome

[@LastRitesEvents]

I love the tutorial, it's easy to follow along and build my website, but when I get to the Envato part, I don't have access to it. A message pops up: "Sorry there was an error loading this data." It doesn't matter how many times I refresh the page or reinstall the plug in.

[@jagdishdas9800]

Trays agen gud👍 job

[@kdog620]

Thank you for all your help. I have gotten so hiccups but Bluehost is helping with that. I can't get the header fixed at all. I need to remove the quote and the old logo. Please help.

[@tlc4701]

How come when I click on Astra Options I don't get an ACTIVATE button? Did I install something wrong?

[@ShinerTheDesigner]

Instead of the "Get Started" button under Astra, I'm just getting a text-box with the HTML code for the button. I can't proceed... Update: Now I'm not seeing anything beneath Astra where the button should be at about 13:27 in your video. I cannot access the Astra templates within WordPress the way you have here.

[@dillonsiflinger7127]

Hi Mike, I just sent you an email. This video is amazing, but I have 1 problem I was hoping you can help with. How do you have your "Posts Page"/ "Archive Page" match the overall theme/look of the rest of your site?

[@uzumakika]

@Santrl Media ..Thanks for this tutorial, but the new astra version (3.9) theme does not have the starter in the astra options where I could start by using elementor as default builder any ideas... ? thank you

[@user-mm2th2hp6h]

✍👆💚💯💲.

[@Dbshorts159]

Nice

[@mollytaylor12]

Okay you are awesome ! But I am a super newbie and I was able to follow you up until 15:01. I am editing on an iPad. I’m now sure is this makes a difference or not but when I click on the astra starter template and I pick the free one I want it takes me to a completely new page and out of word press so I can’t download that particular one as you did. Does it only work with pcs? Thank you in advance!

[@user-mm2th2hp6h]

✍👆💚💯💲..

[@paulines3887]

Very informative video, thank you. I was wondering if you could also go into detail to explain the difference between hosted and self-hosted websites?

[@kellymazzotta7153]

Question, what if I’m an Envato Subscriber but not an Elementor subscriber? Can I still use elementor Ordovician have to be a member to elementor? Not sure if I should cancel my envato subscription or not.

[@jyui1311]

I want to learn Yourtube Ads because I think this is going to next biggest ads platform for local Businesses after Facebook Ads. please make tutorials of this

[@christianunruh5209]

nice

[@rachelreddick8471]

I'm following along...great so far, but Astra is no longer free. Is there another theme you'd suggest that is free?

[@pinkertonpaintherapy8958]

Do you do website updates on WP/ BH? If not, can you recommend someone who can do this?

[@perryanthony1649]

is there a way to hide the site until your finished editing?
