April 3, 2019 — You can’t just install a couple of security plugins and call it a day when it comes to safeguarding your WordPress website. Plugins are a great start. The door to your website now has a lock on it. But how about adding a dead bolt? A door chain? A peep hole? Titanium reinforcement? A pet dragon hiding inside? Plugins help with the 5th layer of security. Did you know there are 4 more layers that you are most likely not protecting? Huh? Did he say 4 more? Come learn how to safeguard the other 4 layers so that even with the best of plugins, you drastically reduce your (and your client’s) chances of getting hacked. Just as you would add layers of security to protect your home and family, your WordPress security needs a multi layered approach. Come learn how to build a wall, a moat, and some additional lookout towers to keep the bad guys away from your castle. Oh, and dragons? We’ll talk about them too, if we have time.

January 3, 2019 — Images! We all need them in our WordPress sites to help tell our stories. Where do you get your images? Pay big bucks for stock photography or “borrow” images from the Internet. Neither is the most optimal solution. How about learning how to get out of “auto” mode on that camera you may already have? I can teach you how to shoot products, people, landscapes, and architecture to create stunning images that will add a new dynamic level to your (or your client’s) websites, and other marketing materials.

Don’t think for a second that you can’t do it. I’ve been teaching kids (and adults alike) for years how to get more out of their cameras’. Come see, you’ll be the envy of your family and friends.
