I LOVE WORDPRESS!
As a small business website developer I’ve seen a lot of content management systems over the past few years including the humble notepad to Macromedia’s Dream Weaver to the more flavoursome web publishing systems like Expression Engine. But honestly WordPress in it’s current evolution is BRILLIANT!
Using WordPress I can create a site in under 2 minutes and have it ready for my clients to populate with their information. Here’s a quick video that shows how easy it is to use WordPress. I LOVE IT!
And there you go, a website created in under 2 minutes. How cool is that? I LOVE WordPress!!!
You Need To Know This
Now as I mentioned in the Video you need to know a few things before you REALLY start to enjoy the power of using WordPress for your website. You need to know
- How to backup your Wordpress site
- How to keep your WordPress site updated and
- What plugins to use to keep it safe, secure and add cool functionality
Now you could go online and spend hours researching all of these things or you could just attend a 1-day workshop with a WordPress Guru.
Enter The WP Guy – Tony Cosentino
Tony Cosentino is The WordPress Guy for small business. His website is The WP Guy and contains a tonne of useful and orgainsed information that will help you get started on Word Press.
He is also having a workshop on the 16th of December 2010 that will help you get you up and running quite quickly. You can then use the period over the Christmas Break to hone your WordPress skills and be ready to launch your website in the new year.
Tony tells me there’s only 10 places available (he likes to keep classes small because it allows him to deliver more personalised 1on1 training) so make sure you REGISTER NOW!
Good luck with your WordPress endeavours!
