This was a great webinar. I watched it twice. It was easy to follow and understand. I learned a few things that are really helping me build my website. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us Elizabeth.
I watched this as I use a WP.org website and the videos WP puts out are not always easy to understand. This was great for lay people to get better idea of how to use.
Great overview & update on current Wordpress capabilities for anyone considering starting or getting an update.
I need to watch this again. I'm not trying to create a web site but learn how to keep our Genealogy web site updated.
Thank you, I am now able to understand how to expand my wordpress.com site!!!!
Excellent overview
