WordPress Courses Ireland
We offer WordPress.com Starter and Advanced Courses for people who are interested in creating their own blog or website, or would like to learn how to update an existing WordPress based website.
The courses are of particular interest to start-ups, small businesses, non-profit organisations, clubs and groups, or anybody who does not have the resources to hire a web master, and would like to get a web presence and be able to update their website by themselves.
In our 4-hour WordPress.com Starter Course participants learn how to change themes and widgets, and how to create posts on their blog and static pages like on a normal website. After the course you will be able to upload photos to your posts and pages, create galleries and slide shows from them and create a navigation bar, categories and tags. You will also learn how to change personal settings, allow or disallow comments and how to fight spam.
In the 4-hour WordPress.com Advanced Course you will learn a little more about spam, how to upload a blog icon and gravatar, how to synchronise your WordPress site with social media such as an existing personal Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn account, and how to insert a ‘Follow us on Facebook’, ‘Follow me on Twitter’ or ‘My LinkedIn Profile’ button in your website for online marketing. You will learn how to embed YouTube videos, how to create a customised navigation bar using pages & categories, how to specify a new front page as a landing page on your blog and how to create a contact form.
Websites built in WordPress are:
º Effective - loved by search engines
º Affordable - less than €20/year, do all updates yourself without the help of a webmaster
º Hassle free - all updates and backups are taken care of
The Starter Course is priced at €149 and the Advanced Course at €199 per person and all courses are filled on a first come, first served basis. If you're interested please e-mail us at julie@wp-courses-ireland.com.
