Pick a host that is tuned for LMS workloads, install WordPress, and choose an LMS plugin like LifterLMS or LearnDash. Then select a lightweight theme, install a page builder if needed, configure payments, build at least one full course with lessons and quizzes, and connect an email tool for student notifications and marketing. For anything serious, factor in performance, security, backups, and uptime monitoring from day one because LMS sites are heavier than typical brochure sites.
