WordPress 101:
The Beginner’s Guide to Building Awesome Websites with WordPress!
A long time ago, in galaxy far, far away, I used to build websites the HARD way. Meaning, I bought an expensive program (DreamWeaver), a big thick “HTML for Dummies” manual, and spent a month learning how to program websites from scratch.
I got pretty good at it, but WOW did it take a long time. And each site I had to start with a blank slate. Not fun. I don’t recommend this.
Sometimes, however, learning the hard way gives you a greater appreciation when a real “game-changer” comes along that revolutionizes how things are done. This is exactly what happened when I first encountered WordPress. My DreamWeaver and HTML manual have a layer of dust on them… and I’ll never build a website from scratch again.
