    Thanks for the Video. WordPress is far better than Blogger and other blogging platforms. I mean they have countless plugins to suit your work

    As a “newbie” (2 weeks’s worth) I think it is reassuring to all new users. I’m glad to have this beginning point figured out, but nevertheless, this is absolutely GREAT for someone just beginning. We must always remember that there are many who are in greater need of something than we are. We were at this point at one time. I’m also looking forward to videos on questions a 2-week old poster has. In the mean time, I really appreciate the efforts WordPress is making to help us along. In appreciation…….

  19. iprimate Says:

    Super simple question, but how do I embed a link in a post to correspond with a word or phrase instead of having to type out the whole url?

    • Michael Pick Says:

      Hi iprimate. We have a page with screenshots on this over at WordPress.com support (page linked). I’ll make sure there’s a video specific to this ASAP, as it’s an important one!

  20. Trevor Patzer Says:

    Thank you. This was really helpful. As a complete novice… well, I am ready to get going.

  21. majorghn Says:

    Could you guys do a close up of your videos so we can actually see what your doing? Next time I watch one your videos I will be sure to bring my electron microscope so I can actually see what your talking about in the video.

    • Sheri Says:

      A lot of the videos are available in HD full screen. Try clicking HD “On” (top right inside video) and then click the full screen option (bottom right).

    This is so nice !!!

  23. Joanna Benz Says:

    Here’s another little tip that I use. You can create something for your widget sidebar, like a graphic with text, and save it as the draft of a post. This way, you will be able to see how the item will appear.

    View the item in html format, then copy the html code.

    To put the item in your sidebar, go to widgets, grab a text widget, and enter your html code there. Now the item appears in your sidebar.
