A Step by Step WordPress Tutorial for Beginners

WordPress Tutorial For Beginners [ No Rating ] 9 Jul 2009
by Laura Jonaitis
I just purchased this book, after being really upset with a prior book I purchased “WordPress for Dummies”. I needed a book to walk me through how to set up and use WordPress in simple terms, as I knew Nothing about it. The Dummies book was so frustrating, that I was ready to drive it back down to the bookstore. I assumed that it was for complete beginners hence the name Dummies. I could not find ANYTHING I needed to find in that book, and it appeared more focused on making your own Themes. I could care less about making themes, I just wanted to know what I needed to do! Then I found this book by Mati Fuller. I was really pleased, finally I was able to have some CLEAR instructions to get me started and explain all of the different things in the WordPress Dashboad & Administration panel. Now I know what some of these things are for and WHY I should use them, along with HOW to use them. Mati points out important things in her book, that I never would have known. I am so very glad that I found this book. I just wish I had known that it was available for download, as I wasted 3 weeks looking for answers about WordPress, now I know I need to go back and fix the posts that I created in my blog, before I upload it for the search engines to find and expose it to the world. Thank you Mati, you were a big help!

The world has been ruled mostly by men, and look what a mess it turned out to be. What is causing this mess? All head (mind) and no heart! And women usually have both. While raising our children, we have to be able to think clearly and solve many problems during the day, and we also have to have lots of unconditional love, forgiveness and understanding. This is what is missing in the world today, so the time has come for women to finally be heard. And what is the easiest way to reclaim our voices? Blogging! It is as simple as that!

Blog away about anything that comes to you, anything that makes an impression, anything that you want to share with your fellow human beings! Life is not always easy, but with the support, advice and wisdom from all our beautiful sister friends, we get the strength, to not just move through the hurdles of life, but to also to grow and expand in consciousness in the process.

With blogging, we can reach out and touch each others hearts. By sharing our stories and opinions, we can encourage and inspire each other to go beyond our comfort zones and allow our beings to flower in ways we never thought were possible!

This is why I wrote my WordPress Tutorial – to give any woman who wants to have a voice, an easy way to express this voice. I know that women, like myself, may not be on super friendly terms with computer technology, but I didn’t want that to stop them from having a blog if they wished to. Therefore, my book is written by a woman for other women in a way that women can understand (actually, that anyone can understand, so it works for open minded men, too).

So, if you have secretly dreamed of having your own blog, just go for it. With my new WordPress Tutorial, anyone who can read a cookbook, can also create a blog. So, don’t hold yourself back anymore, because every one of us can make a difference in our own ways.

A Step by Step WordPress Tutorial for Beginners

Finally, my new book “A Step by Step WordPress Tutorial for Beginners” has been published! I am really excited, because there is no such book available on the market as of yet!

What makes this book different, is that it is written by a “non-techie” for other “non-techies.” The book describes how to create a self-hosted blog with the latest version of WordPress, step-by-step, with lots of pictures, and it leaves nothing to trial and error.

This is a book for people who want to have a blog, but who aren’t interested in how how to design your own computer program. It is like driving a car – you know how to stick the key in and make it go where you want to go, but you don’t want to know what is happening under the hood. This book is similar – you want a blog with as little pain, suffering, frustration and techno babble mumbo-jumbo as possible, even though you may be technically challenged and know very little about computers. Is it possible? Yes, with this tutorial, anyone can set up a blog. The only qualification you need is the ability to read instructions, and do what you are told. Very simple!

Here is what some people have said about the book so far:

“What most impressed me about Mati’s book was the simplicity of her explanations, which were usually accompanied by diagrams that show what items to select when setting up your blog. I highly recommend this book to anyone that wants to use the internet to share their ideas, opinions, or information with the world. This book will be useful to both the technologically challenged and those more familiar with publishing to the web.”
Michael Brill, author of Numerology for Healing.

“Hello Mati,
Have read through your book, and looks like the type of material presented, that would have helped me when I first tried to install WordPress. For anyone ready to perform a fresh new install, you hit it right on. Even picked up other hints that were new to me.” Thank You

“Mati’s book steps in where most tutorials leave off. She provides you with the specific information needed to set up your wordpress blog, customize installation, and make money! This books is the only wordpress tutorial you’ll ever need.”

Why am I writing this? Because there is no such thing out there! When I created this blog, I didn’t have a clue what to do. I have no interest in computer technology, even though I have the kind of head that can understand it if I have to. But, basically, I just wanted a nice, functional blog, without having to study computers in the process. The problem was, I couldn’t find any simple tutorials for the latest version of WordPress. There are tutorial books out there, written for technically minded people, but most of them are already outdated, and they often leave out all the essentials that they think you already know. That was no good to me, and out of frustration, I searched the forums for information, but all I found was lots of questions, and almost no useful answers in simple English.

So, I spent a lot of time, researching exactly how to do things, and I wrote down absolutely everything I did. So this book was the outcome of all my efforts. It is basically a step by step tutorial which explains EXACTLY what to do in simple English, and it leaves nothing out! I explain what, why and how, and I have included lots of screen shots to make it really simple.

With this book, anyone can create a blog, even if they don’t know hardly anything about computers, and with no brain-burn! So, if you have been dreaming about creating your own blog, but feel a bit intimidated because you don’t know how, this book will tell you everything you need to know to get started.

If you are interested in buying the book, use the contact form tab from the top of the page to send me a private email, and I’ll let you know when the book is released and where you can buy it. I’ll even give you a $5.00 rebate if you buy it within the first 10 days after the release. In addition, I also need to know if there are anyone out there who would be willing to review the book. At this point, I would really appreciate some reviews (just send me a word).

So, keep checking my blog for updates, and I’ll let you know as soon as the book is released.
