Wordpress Step By Step Blueprint In The Works …

Yes,there are many MANY resources and information products that cover Wordpress in some way or another, however piecing together the most essential things can be a huge pain in the ass! With that said, i’ve decided to put my experiences/knowledge on paper so to speak and share it you, the readers.

Although it’s not set in stone – at this stage the guide is focusing more on the following areas:

Installing your blog in 5minutes or less
Blog themes – what you should be looking for
Plugins that i use and what they are used for
Uploading your theme, activating and configuring theme options
Plugin activation and configuration
The WP Settings that i personally use
Other configuration suggestions
Final notes

At this stage I’ve created most of the rough draft and so far it’s weighing in at a nice hefty 27 pages!, but i do hope to cut this down dramatically and focus this guide towards more of a step by step blueprint with the least focus on filler content and fluff!.

The main goal after all is to give you a step by step guide that you’ll be able to use to setup and configure your blog like i would in less than 30 minutes.

I am really looking forward to completing this!

If you have any things you would like to see present in this guide, please leave a comment and i will consider.
