This tutorial will walk you through editing your pages in the Wordpress Admin.

First, go ahead and login to your wordpress admin panel.

Click on “Pages” in the left hand column.

From here you’ll be presented with a list of pages that already exist. If you’d like to create a new page, simply select “add new”.

If you’re going to edit an existing page – just click the title of the page you’d like to edit from the list. Don’t see the page you’re looking for? Make sure you’ve looked through all the pages in the list. There are icons in the top right corner that will show you if there are more pages on the next screen.

Now you’re on the edit page screen. Start typing and fill your page with some great content. Remember to use the formatting buttons to break up your content.

Heading Tags

Use the heading tags to title sections within your post. Make sure and use a heading size that’s appropriate for the content your displaying. Sub-headings should never be larger than the page title. Generally, we recommend using Heading 3 or Heading 4 sizes within the page content area. (The heading of this paragraph is size 4)

Text Formatting – Keep It Simple

Don’t get too crazy with the text formatting. Wordpress allows you to use adjust font size, colors, font-weight and several other options. Don’t go overboard with decorating your content with colors, underlines and other styles. Focus on writing great content – that’s what drew your visitor to your site in the first place. Typically you should only have 2 main styles on a page – the page’s title and the body content. You can use bold styles to emphasize important points, or

Use larger text for quick blurbs that should stand out from the rest of the text.

Again, don’t get too fancy – You don’t want your page to look like a used car lot…

Once you’re finished editing and your content is just right, simply click “Publish” in the right hand column.
