Introduction to WordPress

Andy — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 10:58:34 -0600

WordPress is web software you can use to create a polished website or blog. One of our favorite things about it? It's free.

More specifically, WordPress is an open source Content Management System (CMS) that allows users to re-arrange content and widgets without editing PHP or HTML code. What's that mean to you? It gives you the ability to create a website with little web development knowledge. You also have the option to edit the actual code if you're going for something a little more advanced.

Beginner's Guide to Web Analytics using Google Analytics

Andy — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 14:42:35 -0600

It's amazing how many organizations have their websites up and running, but have no idea HOW people are finding them (other than "well, they Googled me") and HOW people navigate through their sites (where they're losing visitors, etc). This is important stuff to know, especially with all the online competition for visitors' time and money, and we want to share it with you.

In this class you will learn:

What is Web Analytics and why is it important? Will it get me more "hits?"
Why "hits" don't matter anymore (that's SO 2005)
