6. CUSTOMIZE THE APPEARANCE: ADD A THEME
You might want to stop following the tutorial at this stage and just play with WordPress. It’s often the fastest way to learn to play with software. However, for those who would like detailed guidance, the rest of this tutorial outlines how to add pages and content to your website, as well as how to customize your appearance.
Let’s start by changing the theme.
A new theme transforms the appearance of your WordPress site, without affecting the content. In other words, the layout, colors, fonts and style changes, but the text and content remain the same. By default, WordPress comes with a few pre-installed themes. There are thousands of other free themes out there.
