WordPress Bootcamp

Are you a “non-techie” looking to create a polished, professional-looking Website or blog for your small business, your non-profit organization, or your personal use?  This course will teach you how to do this,
quickly and easily – without any programming required – using WordPress, the most popular, powerful and free Web development tool in use today. 

This is very much a hands-on course. Beginning with the first class you will start building your skills as you build a working, multi-page Website that will help bring new customers to your business, get out the message for your non-profit organization, broadcast your news and views on a blog page, showcase the snapshots from your point-and-shoot camera…wherever your imagination takes you!

By the end of the course, besides having a great-looking Website, you will know how to:  Create a new site and add/maintain pages and blog posts on the site; Modify the appearance of the site (e.g., color scheme, page layout, fonts); Insert photos and documents into pages and blog posts; Add a variety of useful functions and features to the site; Migrate your site to a privately hosted WordPress environment if desired; and, Access resources with
information about more advanced features of WordPress
