Event description

WordPress is a Personal Web Publishing phenomenon. There's nothing quite like it out there. It has power, ease of use, extensibility and longevity. You can do anything with WordPress... if you know how!!!

Welcome to the World of WordPress!

This workshop goes into the design and implementation of a WordPress website. It reveals how to utilize the hundreds of products and plugins that are freely available. It explains Widgets, Posts and Pages. It reveals how WordPress makes upgrading or finding a theme, a user's dream.

Websites developed in WordPress include:

  • Content Management System
  • Unlimited Expansion Capability
  • Updatable and Maintainable by You
  • Highly Search Engine Optimized
  • Full Blogging Capability

Until recently, creating an online experience was left to the web development community and programmers who indulge in the world of HTML, DHTML, PHP, JSCRIPT, PERL, and other such web speak terms. But now with the new release of WordPress, the online world is a different place.

With a WordPress website and Blog, anyone can develop an amazing online experience without having to spend thousands of dollars on web consultants and developers. Now with a little education and support, even the computer novice can get online and get noticed.

With WordPress, you can scheme, select your theme and create an online dream.

    I learned a bit about static web design with MS Expression Web (Frontpage). Now what is this wordpress and why does it require a database?

    If I told you that now Anthony, you wouldn't need to come to the workshop :) Seriously though, it does require a database and all will be revealed at the workshop. And there is nothing static about WordPress.
