In 2025, every business, no matter how big or small, needs a modern website. A lot of the time, people look at it first to decide if they trust your business or product. You could hire a web developer, but now you can use WordPress to make a fully working business website on your own.
We’ll show you how to make a full business website using WordPress step by step in this guide. We’ll show you how to set up your name, pick the right theme, change the way pages look, and publish your site. There will also be tips on layout, useful tools, and the best ways to use your site for SEO and mobile.
If you want to start as a freelancer, store owner, or build a portfolio for your business, this is the place to go.
✅ Why WordPress is still the best platform for building websites in 2025
Both big brands and small companies continue to trust WordPress. Over 800 million websites have been made on it, making it the most popular website platform in the world.
This is why WordPress is still the best in 2025:
🔹 Open Source and Free
There are no hidden fees. You can download and use WordPress for free. Hosting and paid themes or plugins are the only things you have to pay for.
🔹 User-Friendly
You don’t need to know how to code to use drag-and-drop page tools like Elementor and Gutenberg to make and change pages.
🔹 Significant Community Support
Need help? Many lessons, forums, Facebook groups, and YouTube videos are available, some of which are on our channels (Preet Tech Ideas and Preet WebXP).
🔹 Many plugins and themes to choose from
You can find an app that can add any feature you need, like live chat, bookings, contact forms, or portfolios.
