New Beginners WordPress Course

Hi,

I just wanted to announce that my beginners WordPress course should be available within the next few days.

This is a brand new course where I show you how to install and configure WordPress in a self-hosting setup. Self-hosting means that you would have your own hosting account and domain name where you would have total control over what you do.

Just watch the WordPress section of the killervideostore over the next few days, and it will be posted.

Thanks,
Stefan Mischook

To make an analogy: you can think of a CMS as being a restaurant buffet, where you have many prepared dishes to choose from, that you can use to create your meal. Where Dreamweaver is like an electric appliance, that helps you create a meal from scratch.

1. Get the most work as a web designer.
2. And to be able to build the best websites.
