			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Premium Class - February 9, 2012</strong></p>
<p>Mention WordPress and a lot of people say, “you mean the blogging software?” Well, that is how WordPress got its start, but now you can use this amazing (and amazingly free) tool to build complete websites. Better still, you get the kind of content management tools for easily adding to and updating your site like the big boys have. What’s even more remarkable is that you really don’t need to be a tech-head to make this work. So, here’s what you’ll learn after just one day at the WordPress in a Day workshop: <strong><a title="Make a Payment" href="http://www.getmeseennow.com/make-a-payment/">Sign up for class</a></strong></p>
<ul>
<li>WordPress.org vs. WordPress.com—which should you use?</li>
<li>Using WordPress for blogging, as a standalone site, or both</li>
<li>Setting up a multi-page WordPress site</li>
<li>How to install a free or low-cost professionally designed theme</li>
<li>Using plugins and widgets to easily add extra features to your site</li>
<li>Changing images and text, adding and deleting pages</li>
<li>How WordPress and a few tips about SEO can make your site perform better in Google searches</li>
<li>Enough about Cascading Style Sheets to be dangerous (and allow you to modify pre-existing templates)</li>
<li>Elements of an effective and useful site</li>
<li>Using WordPress help and forums to get your questions answered</li>
</ul>
<p>You&#8217;ll bring your own WiFi enabled laptop but we can also supply you with a computer. This training applies equally to both Mac and PC users.</p>
<p><strong><label>Who should take this class?</label></strong></p>
<p>This workshop is for people—whether you’re an accomplished designer or not—who would like to get their own (or a client’s) website up and running easily—and then keep it updated with equal ease. Please note that this is an entry level workshop and is not intended for those who intend to do complex, enterprise level sites.</p>
<p><strong><label>Cost</label></strong><br />
$195 &#8211; <strong><a title="Make a Payment" href="http://www.getmeseennow.com/make-a-payment/">Sign up for class</a></strong></p>
<p><label>Prerequisites</label></p>
<p>You will need an email address that you can access in class, either on your own laptop or from a webmail account.</p>

Christine has been involved with software, the Internet and Web Publishing for over 20 years but now develops almost exclusively in WordPress and other ‘Open Source’ technologies. Christine is an enthusiastic proponent of ‘Open Source’ software and especially WordPress. In her view, WordPress is at the forefront of the ‘open source’ revolution because it epitomizes all that ‘open source’ stands for. It empowers anyone to become a true part of the social media phenomenon. With WordPress, you can develop a superb website and blog; you can maintain it yourself, accommodate many contributors and vast quantities of materials; you can incorporate or share with an amazing assortment of social media sites such as Facebook, Biznik, LinkedIn, YouTube, Twitter and more. You become part of a global community that is expanding every day.</td>

<p><a href="http://www.getmeseennow.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/WordPress_Logo.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-769" title="WordPress_Logo" src="http://www.getmeseennow.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/WordPress_Logo.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>The rules of marketing have changed forever. A Yellow Pages advertisement no longer cuts it. Over 100 million Americans use a search engine every day to find everything from a long lost love to a TV repair man. Search engines dominate our lives whether we realize it or not and if we want our businesses to thrive, we have to be found. Where, not so long ago, Microsoft, Yahoo and Google ruled the web, now social networking sites and connected ‘self managed’ websites dominate. Where webmasters controlled development of the content of websites for companies large and small, now users have taken over the content management reins.</p>
<p>Marketing has shifted focus considerably over the past few years. The ubiquity of high speed Internet, free WiFi, Low Cost Computers, Internet enabled Smart Phones and the effectiveness of search engines has totally changed the buying habits of modern customers. Niche markets have become mainstream, odd campaigns hit the big time, viral campaigns are rampant and Social Media is pulling it all together.</p>
<p>Right now Facebook, Groupon, Living Social and other relatively new socially oriented sites are making all the news but WordPress is also quietly revolutionizing the net. And that benefits all of us!</p>
<p>This workshop will show you how to integrate various technologies into a Social Media Marketing Strategy. You will realize why you should never pay for a Yellow Pages Ad again when a well written blog with a series of comments from happy customers is both FREE and a whole lot more effective. The business owner has to, as never before, think like his customer. What is the customer searching for, where is he searching, how is he making his buying decision and what are his existing customers saying about him.</p>
<p>Social Media Marketing can be hugely effective!</p>
<p>Learn to coordinate WordPress, Biznik, LinkedIn, Twitter and YouTube into the most powerful marketing program you have ever undertaken and learn to do it for FREE.</p>
