As you know, we launched our first full-length blogging course back in July called Blog Start-Up 101, and the response was fantastic! SO many of you have emailed me expressing just how much this course helped you get your dream blogs started.
I am so humbled and grateful for the opportunity to share my 12+ years of blogging experience with so many of you! It’s truly been a huge blessing for me and my team.
One of the big goals I have for YBU™ is to build a blogging skills training platform that grows with my students — being your mentor for each step of your journey.
That’s why I’m SO excited to introduce you to the next course in our YBU™ Beginner Blogging program, WordPress 101. This is our second of many full-length beginner blogging courses we plan to release over the next year, and you are the first to know about it!
The fear and intimidation of learning WordPress is one of the most common reasons new bloggers fail to get their self-hosted sites off the ground — especially for those of us who aren’t very techie (I’m right there with you!)
But WordPress doesn’t have to be the lone barrier that keeps you from accomplishing your blogging goals! That’s why we created a brand-new course called WordPress 101. This course was designed to break down that barrier and bridge the gap so you can spend less time banging your head against the wall trying to learn this platform and more time doing what you love — sharing your voice with the world!

WordPress 101 includes detailed lessons and video tutorials. Here are some of the topics covered:

My goal in producing this course is not only help de-mystify WordPress, but also to give people like you an incredible bang for your buck. I think the course is worth every bit of a $97 value, but I have priced it at $37 because I want beginners to be able to afford it. However, to celebrate the launch of the course, you can get it for just $27 through October 1, 2017.
P.S. Don’t wait! After October 1st, the price will go up to $37! Not sure if this course is right for you? Click here to view the course syllabus!
