Course Overview
Create your own blog from scratch even if you are not technical or are afraid of math.
In this course you will learn how to setup your own blog from an award winning blogger Chris Christensen. We will use WordPress which is the most popular blogging software. You don't need to be a programmer, be technical or be good with math. You do need to be able to follow a set of instructions and you need to be able to get to the web... looks like you have that working.
Set aside and afternoon, and follow along while you actually setup your website. Whether you use a blog to change your life and get invited to the White House (I did) or just use it to collect your thoughts, you can start today.
