Only 3 months into studying SEO and need a bit of help

I have been studying digital marketing for 3 months after starting of as a cold caller for a company 10 months ago. After delving into the market I realised I was useless at cold calling but interested in SEO, Social Media, PPC, and Data and Analytics.

I have created a website for a friend using Wordpress and as I learn in my course I 'm adding SEO to the website to get him ranked.

I am very happy with my progress but need to clarify a few things.

As I don't have any HTML experience and jumped straight into Wordpress (I feel like I'm cheating but will learn HTML and PHP when I get the time),some of the plugins I'm adding in Wordpress, would I have to add these by coding in HTML?

Many Thanks

    No, most of the plugins in Wordpress don't needs coding, they have some settings that needs to be done without coding. But some of them might needs if you are using a plugin that needs to be implemented in your website code for that you should have a knowledge of HTML and PHP.

      My apologies, I should've explained myself better.

      I was curious that if I wasn't using Wordpress and their plugins then how would I implement SEO to my site?

      Where would I change my title, meta tag etc?

      I would have to add them to the coding of the site?

      Thank you for your response and help

        That would correct yes.. IF you are not using a CMS ( Content Management System ) you more than likely would be coding these elements by hand.

    You will need to edit HTML directly with text editor to change the title/meta description to include your keywords for SEO . You can check the link for HTML basics.
