Because the interface idoesn't look easy to understand, for me at least
 
learn coding, build site with nextjs , it will do wonders for ranking
 
Begin with core WordPress basics (dashboard, themes, plugins) using free tutorials on YouTube or Learn.WordPress.org, then quickly move to building a test site to learn things practically instead of just watching courses.

Yeah also WordPress support send some links which explain how use this or that, so I'm learning step by step
 
Try to use gutenberg editor before diving into other third party premium plugins like elementor etc.

I know that. But you need to start from the ground. How to design it from scratch with the built in editor, that might help you in the long run.
 
To start with WordPress, first learn the basics: installing it, creating posts/pages, using themes and plugins, and keeping your site secure. Practice on a test site so you don’t break anything. For learning,watch tutorials on youtube that will help alot.
 
Here’s a starter roadmap for WordPress beginners:

Practical tips
• Start by exploring the WordPress dashboard and install WordPress on a test site to play around with themes, plugins, settings and content.
• Keep plugins minimal and choose clean themes to avoid slow page loads.
• Learn core tasks: create posts/pages, customize menus, install plugins/themes, and manage SEO settings.
• Practice regularly — hands‑on building is one of the fastest ways to learn.

Recommended beginner courses
• WordPress for Beginners – Master WordPress Quickly (Udemy) — very beginner‑friendly, covers setup to responsive sites.
• WordPress for Beginners (Udemy) — basic site build without prior experience.
• WPBeginner Videos & tutorials — free beginner series and guides.
• Official Learn WordPress workshops — free modular lessons straight from WordPress.org.
• WordPress 101 (Coursera) — structured fundamentals including themes, plugins, and SEO.

Start with a free tutorial or one inexpensive Udemy course, then build actual pages/sites as you learn — that’s the fastest way to become confident with WordPress.
 
Start with the basics first. Learn how themes, plugins, and databases work together before overloading it.

Official WP docs and YouTube walkthroughs are enough to get going, no paid course needed at first.
 
Start with Google Skillshop and Moz SEO Essentials for basics, then practice on real sites to learn faster.
