Description
Have you ever tried to build or enhance a website to grow your business? Have you spent lots of time learning WordPress, how to work with plug-ins, and how to tweak your website to boost traffic and sales, only to have it produce lackluster results? Have web designers quoted you a price tag of several thousand dollars just to build it for you?
With this Wordpress Tips and Tricks course you can learn How to Increase Website Traffic, which tips, tweaks, and tools you can use, without complicated programming, to boost your WordPress website and transform it into a traffic magnet -- in less time, with less money, and with a lot less effort.
- Which plug-ins create the best results
- How to tweak your plug-ins to maximize your site's selling power
- How to work with themes and templates to optimize your site's attraction potential
- And how to avoid common errors committed by WordPress designers.
This Wordpress Tips and Tricks course will take you through top essential and nice-to-have plug-ins, including admin, SEO, security, layout, usability, social, and even multimedia plug-ins. It will also dive into how to work with themes and templates, and how to tweak them a lot more efficiently.
Also, this course will show you how to tweak the look-and-feel of your website using styles, graphics, and design "tricks." It will reveal some shortcuts using copy-and-paste-simple snippets of code, as well as a number of quick-and-dirty online tools and resources -- many of which are free.
