Project Name: Creating My Personal Portfolio Blog with WordPress and AWS EC2
Hello everyone!
Welcome to my another blog post, I’m excited to share my journey of creating my personal portfolio blog. As part of my digital marketing course at Digital Vidya, I decided to build a blog using WordPress and AWS EC2.
Using WordPress and AWS EC2
I chose WordPress for its ease of use and customization options. For hosting, I went with AWS EC2 because it’s free for the first year, which is perfect for a student project.
Setting Up the Website
- I started by setting up an EC2 instance on AWS. It was a new experience for me, but thank to the blog creation workshop by Digital Vidya .
- I began by configuring my EC2 instance, choosing the best instance type, and setting up security measures for website protection. Once the server was live, l installed WordPress and personalized the theme to highlight my skills and projects effectively.
What I Learned
- Technical Skills: I gained hands-on experience with web hosting and WordPress.
- Creativity: Designing the blog allowed me to express my creativity.
Future Work
In the future, I plan to enhance my portfolio website with more projects and engaging blog posts on digital marketing. I also aim to integrate analytics tools for better visitor interaction tracking, as ! continue to learn and grow.
Thanks for reading, and stay tuned for more updates!
