Ok, so want to promote your business online but first you need to get a nice looking website up and running.

Problem is that you have no clue even where to start and no money to hire one of those web designer gurus to do it for you for a zillion dollars.

Luckily there is a great solution out there to create websites for free!

It's called WordPress but you have no idea how to get WordPress up and running and don't have the time to go out there and doing a bunch of research to just get a basic site up.

You will learn how to drive valuable traffic to your new site

Getting your site online is the first step to benefiting from the great wonders the Internet can offer you.

However..

It really doesn't matter how pretty your site is if no one gets to see it.

Success on the Internet is really a numbers game, the more visitors you get the more sales you get, plain simple.

So in this course I devote 8 whole chapters to teach you how to get your site noticed, promoted, and loved by the world so you can get those coveted eyeballs looking your way and help your online business thrive.

But Wait! there is more..

As a bonus I'll:

- Let you peak inside my own website's traffic stats and explain them.

- How to install a live chat to talk to visitors in real time.

- How to install a cool rotating ad banner to showcase your main products.

- How to create a good looking Facebook page widget for your site to increase your followers.

- How to set up a free Newsletter to keep in touch with your audience and generate more leads.

- and to top it all! just to make sure have a good time learning..

I'll even serenade you with the first WordPress song ever, composed and horribly sang from me to you.. with luuuvvvv

(PS: If you sit through the whole song you'll get bonus points  )

This course has 51 chapters shot in HD video amounting to over 4 hours of instruction where I pour all my knowledge accumulated over the years.

My own company, Grumo Media runs on WordPress and I am happy to say than I run a very profitable online business using this awesome free platform.

Now I want to share all I have learned with you so you can become successful online too!

Ready? let's do it!

I really enjoyed the course, very well explained, the duration and content of each video is well structured using a tone that really kept me watching the video instead of getting slept. Complete information about how to create a wordpress site, I have learnt a lot and going to start using what I learnt to start my site. Thanks Miguel, love your fresh style.

The instructor is engaging and fun, but this course was made in 2011, so is really out of date. Few of the screen shots look the same now. Though the workflow of setting up a new site was useful, I had to constantly keep stopping and looking up how to do things elsewhere. This wasn't clear when I bought the course. It needs updating, or it should be made clear how old it is at point of sale.

I had no coding experience and little computer knowledge so had no control over my site, admittedly my site was only about two weeks old... This corse helped me go from novice to amateur in a couple of days and I still use it to review and improve my site. You made the experience entertaining and interesting and cover my questions almost immediately after they popped in my head. I will definitely buy your courses again, Well Done Clint
