About Ferdy

Hi, I'm
Ferdy

I am passionate about WordPress, making videos and educating people. I combine all three in free, in-depth tutorials that help you build the website you have in mind.

Who I am

Born and raised in The Netherlands

01

Videos meet websites

Ever since I can remember, I have been interested in recording and editing videos. I made my first website in 1999. In 2010 I started combining both passions.

02

A family of four

I married Anna in 2015. Our son was born in 2018 and our daughter in 2021. I grew up in a family of five children myself.

03

Outside of tutorials

I like to spend time with friends, go on vacation and read books about self-development, our brain and being productive.

Why it is free

Everything is free

No paywall and no sales tactics. This is why I share everything for free and how the platform still pays the bills.

01

A course that did not sell

In 2013 I created my first WordPress course. I struggled to sell it and did not want to use pushy sales tactics.

2015
02

Sharing it all on YouTube

So I started sharing my knowledge for free. My first WordPress tutorial went live in 2015 and I have kept going ever since.

How it pays the bills

Ad revenue, sponsorships and affiliate commissions. That combination has supported me financially for about ten years.
