Workshop (2 hrs): Manage Your WordPress Website Now and For the Future

This workshop is aimed at WordPress users who have already created a site and started adding content to it. It will be a practical session aimed at helping you develop the skills you need to manage your site and make sure it’s robust, fast and regularly updated.

During the workshop there will be some input from the workshop leader but you’ll spend most of the time doing practical work on your own site, with guidance from the instructor, as well as being able to ask questions and discuss practical aspects of running a WordPress site with the rest of the group.

By the end of the workshop you’ll be able to:

  • keep your WordPress installation updated and secure
  • install and run plugins to automatically back up your site and restore it if things go wrong
  • install and configure plugins to help make your site perform better, increasing speed
  • install and configure a plugin to enhance your site’s SEO
  • link your site to your social media accounts
  • create a schedule for yourself to help you keep your site’s content regularly updated and respond to comments if you have them switched on
  • As this is an interactive workshop numbers are limited.
