    There's not much to learn... it's pretty straight forward. What are you trying to do?

    Yeah that's easy, do you know how to install it? Most hosts have an auto install these days, Fantastico for example... once installed go to "Appearance", then "Themes", the chose upload, pretty much it. Then go to plugins & upload away. As for collect data - you'll need an RSS importer if that's the way your heading to collect data - not recommended these days though.

    You can practice with a wordpress hosted site first.. learn of its interface.

    You could try with a Beginner Wordpress Course such as https://www.udemy.com/wordpress-tutorials-for-beginners or other...

    I can give you a 50% discount code for this course, if you are interested.

    Good luck!

    Build a WP website, read Codex and blogs, and start making money with it. In several months you'll find one day yourself knowing lots of things about this CMS.

    The best way to learn wordpress is, Just installed it and start building it, If you don’t want to do it than best way is just create a Account on wordpress blog and start working on the admin area.

    It’s same as the website admin, Than after you can try installation and the Wordpress CODEX and FORUM is the best solution of every question.

    WordPress is one of the best software I've ever used in my life. All you need is to install it, play with it and you will used to the platform. It's pretty easy.

    Building a nice WordPress Blog Site is not a challenge and anyone can build a nice one.

    You just have to learn the right knowledge. You should look out for Video Tutorials and Step by Step Information.

    There is so much information on building a WP Blog site from Scratch. I have some tutorials on my Youtube Channel myself if you want to check it out.

    But either way there is so much information on WordPress blog building all over the internet.

    Learn exactly what WordPress is too. ANd it is a Blogging Platform that you install on a Domain Name. Once install you have a Dashboard with many settings and options to control the entire blog site. You can add Themes and Plugins. Very simple stuff man!

    Watch some videos, read some good information, practice and put some work into it!.. You will be able to become a WordPress Blog Site Master Builder! .. I build WP Blogs Sites in 5 minutes or less. :cool:

    I hope this helps!

    I wish you the best success online!

    Cheers! ;)

    Wordpress is pretty straight forward. Not much to learn honestly. Backend is friendly..Though if you're building a custom website from zero, it could be a problem suiting your desing needs. "The big and successful templates" are best solution. The custom website and design built from zero requires just too much of manual work...

    Just like many others here have said it - start building a WordPress site yourself and research things when you have a problem with them right at the moment. This way you will be able to internalize it better.

    Now one more practical tip. Instead of getting you own hosting and spending money on that and all I would recommend you to get AMPPS and then installed WordPress as an APP from within it. This all sounds complicated but really not that bad.

    Simple search on Google will tell you about all the installation details and honestly in 10 minutes you can have it ready and going with no problems at all.

    This way it'l lwork faster, would be all free and more convenient :) Good luck
