Great tutorial on using WordPress

February 19, 2008 by Keith Seabourn 5 Comments

I found this great tutorial on using WordPress. The focus of the tutorial is on using WordPress for a church website. But the principles are very useful for those of us who use WordPress to manage a website that does more than serve as a blog.

Missionaries frequently ask me for advice on creating a website to communicate with ministry partners. I regularly recommend either Blogger.com because it’s easy to use or WordPress.com because it’s very flexible and powerful.

This series has very helpful topics like

  • Picking / Finding a Free WordPress Theme
  • Personalizing Your Theme and Making It Your Own
  • Two Quick Ways to Make WordPress Look Like a Regular Website
  • Six Handy (And Free) Plugins

If you are looking for a good website publishing tool that is both easy-to-use, flexible, and extremely powerful, look into WordPress.

    Keith, Thanks for this link. I am thinking of switching to WordPress as the framework for my oh-so-famous http://www.butzfam.com. I will check this out to learn more. Eric D in our office, who you met, uses wordpress on his site and I liked what I saw. I just did fresh install of Drupal on mine, but I think Drupal, with all it’s flexibility, is a little too cumbersome and complicated for what I need.

    I get the RSS feed for your blog now. I am trying out MyYahoo as my RSS reader now. What reader do you use?

    I use Google Reader for RSS feeds. I’ve used WordPress for quite a while and really find it does all I need. I have added several plugins to add functionality. Actually, I do not use a WordPress.com free site, but use WordPress software on a hosted site. (I use Dreamhost, others use Bluehost, or something else.)

    Very good tutorial. Am building a new blog I want to use as a standard website, so this tutorial will certainly help. I Could use your help (along with other Pastors) though, at a website where they are discussing religion. Need some additional “Prayer Warriors” at this forum where they are putting our faith down.

    Please help to set some of these people on the righteous course if you will over at: http://blabtalk.com/index.php/board,29.0.html

    Thanks much to all.
