How This Workshop Can Help You

At the end of this class, students will have an overview of WordPress, know how to set up a basic website, and even know how to add a blog, as we cover the following steps:

  • Decide on website goals
  • Organize information for a set of pages: About Me, Books, Contact, etc.
  • Create a Word Press account
  • Choose a Word Press theme and style
  • Create static Word Press pages and a blog page
  • Intended for beginners and students with no knowledge of WordPress (or of creating websites and blogs at all!), we'll get you set up fast.

Hi, I'm Jami, and I'm pathologically helpful.

I've blogged on the WordPress platform for over a decade, even teaching myself coding to customize settings on my site. But for this course, my most important skill is in translating gobbledygook into English (i.e., explaining technical topics to the non-technical).

Let me help you!

If you want to take advantage of free options for your online homebase, the resources in this workshop can help.

This workshop includes access to a PowerPoint presentation, extensive handout PDF, and exclusive webpage of WordPress tips.

NOTE: This class has not been updated since 2014, and due to being out-of-date, Jami has not offered it for sale for many years. However, as many tips and insights remain valid, she decided to offer it free to members.

With a bit of direction for creating a "virtual home" that works for you and your unique goals, you can overcome technical confusion and unlock your creativity!

Not sure whether you want a free website and blog (covered in this class) or are ready to invest in a site you'll own (covered in a different class)? Read this post for tips on how to decide which is a better match for your situation. Or check out the whole series Jami did on WordPress and websites. These two website classes are very similar (just set up for free vs. paid), so you only need to study one of these classes, not both.
