Will I “Walk away With a Website?”
No. It’s difficult when classes promise “Web in a Night” and unrealistic to package Web into such a short time period.
However, the goal in this Workshop is to lay a strong foundation in WordPress for Web. You will be provided the initial understanding of WordPress Tools, Capabilities and Resources.
Domain and hosting option information will be presented prior to class as requested, so that you work on your actual sites!
