Lab 1 – Make a Website

Objectives: To create a blog website and post a lab report.

Equipment list: A desktop computer and the website WordPress.com.

Notes and Observations: The process of creating the website was easy but I noticed how WordPress would try to trick you into paying for the website by placing the links for the free option for the website in places that were not as noticeable as the options where you would have to pay for it.

Diagrams, flowcharts, and figures: N/A

References: Dr. Gx’s handouts.

Conclusions: Creating a simple blog website using WordPress is quite easy. Adding new posts looks like it will be straight forward and easy to understand. Beyond plain text I can’t determine how hard it could become to use but I assume that for the typical user, adding content should be easy.
