Hi Chris,
This is a great video for wordpress. However, I need some help to make a website. I think I’m almost there. However, since you live on hill. I was hoping you would consult to a fellow neighbor for a couple of hours or a set fee. Whatever works for you. my email address is msglrckr@aol.com.
Thanks Gwen

Thank you so much for this vid. Your slow pace is exactly what I needed. It seems many other breeze through this and overlook a lot of things. I did have one question, the “tag” section doesn’t automatically choose tags like you said, I have to put the words in myself. Am I doing something wrong, or has this option changed? Thank you!

Chris — Thanks so much. I found the pace of your delivery just right as a new user who needed time to examine the screens while I listened. I could pause you, but I found you generally gave me enough time for each of your points to sink in. This FREE service is much appreciated — just the ticket. Thanks again!!!

Ya you are slow, to be really honest aren’t we all…?? LOL! anyways, hats off Abraham! a very cool clip. I recently started to play with WordPress (yes I know, an absolute newbie) but I found the latest WP is way cooler in terms of customizing. Still lot to learn for me. Love your clips and hope that you’ll post some more on WP. My mission is to create my website using WP. And also I want to incorporate a newsletter mechanism + subscribe feature…

Hey Chris, Thanks for all the help. I am up and running now and I have recommended you to everyone.
Can I ask how you can have a 50 minute YouTube video?
Cheers, Leonie

I just became Webmaster of a student organization and I’m taking over the website. So far I have a WordPress account for the website, but apparently if I want to do any fundamental changes, I need to use WordPress correct?
I’m going to watch this whole video and any tips will be appreciated. Thanks.
