About Course

Our WordPress course shows small business owners how to plan, build and launch a simple website. You start with a clean page layout, then add your services, prices and contact details. Pieter van der Merwe walks you through each step with local examples, like a Stellenbosch guesthouse and a Cape Town bakery. You learn how to add photos, set up a contact form and link your WhatsApp number. By the end, you have a working site that you can update yourself, without paying a developer for every small change.

What Will You Learn?

  • Practise your new skills with short hands-on exercises (answers included)
  • Organise your work in clear steps you can repeat later
  • Get friendly and fast support in the course Q&A
  • Downloadable lectures, files and practice assets for all projects
