| Description: | WordPress 101: Design a Sensational Website Budding entrepreneurs must have a web presence to compete in today's global economy. In the past, slim resources may have postponed development of a website, but utilizing WordPress technology can provide an affordable, easy, do-it-yourself solution to create a professional website quickly. Entrepreneurs who want to develop a new website or use their current website more effectively will benefit from this comprehensive beginner series on website development. Any reasonably technically savvy person can take this course and learn how to develop and maintain a website. Instructor: Marc Beneteau is a web developer, trainer, Internet marketer and entrepreneur. Prior to starting WordpressAcademy.biz, he was a top software developer, then Chief Technology Officer of an Internet startup. He also started and ran a website development company for three years. Marc holds a B.Sc. in Physics from the State University of New York. 3 week session/Design/5:30 - 8:30 pm Wednesday, June 9, 2010 Wednesday, June 16, 2010 Wednesday, June 30, 2010 Cost for this series - $150 All attendees will also receive full access to a 12 hour video training program from WordPress Academy. "Marc's extensive knowledge of web development and marketing helped me to see that there is really no need to spend thousands of dollars on a fantastic website. Hiring a web developer to design a single site would have cost much more than the class and now I have the knowledge to do it myself. I highly recommend this class for anyone who wants to have a web presence" - Geoff Young "I started Mark's training program with little knowledge of Wordpress and within a few weeks had a functional, clean site up and running. Anyone with an average knowledge of tech and the willingness to put in a few hours will find the rich underbelly of Wordpress much more accessible. Mark tells you all you need to know to avoid the big mistakes saving hours of time, and pre-screens all the "ingredients" you need for a successful Wordpress site, such as Themes, Plug-ins, and the like, so you don't have to. " - James Moche * Come to each class prepared to work on your website. You must have a laptop with a wireless internet connection (bring it to the class). Every session includes time for practice and coaching. Additional, optional costs are recommended but not required: Hosting and domain name, if you don't already have a site ($84) and a professional theme framework (about $100). If you don't have hosting yet, we'll set you up with a practice site. |
