Thanks Chris, I am relatively new to internet stuff, certainly to Wordpress. I like your slower- than- the -speed- freaks REAL approach. It suits me just fine. I learnt loads.I did have some questions beforehand – but, you have answered them in your tutorial.Cheers.

Very real situation including things not going right. Well done in taking it slowly. The speed freaks can go somewhere else. I would have given up on wordpress if it was not for your explanations.

@BillHobstetter Nope, not sexy at all. I am whatever is the opposite of sexy. Nerdy? Geeky? I will take “Cool, Hip, Savvy,Cutting Edge, Generous” just fine.
BillHobstetter
This a great how to video. Thank you it has helped me a lot.
You are Cool, Hip, Savvy,Cutting Edge, Generous, but I really don’t know about sexxy.
Thanks again for taking time to help us fellow marketers.

@tuesdaynightjam Talk about a mixed message. I am not trying to sell myself. I already have almost 50 employees. I am glad you learned. I was just trying to help. The words are the content, silly. I am creepy. That’s my charm. You’re welcome.

chris, you’re a dude for taking the time to help us all l. But this was excruciating. You’re trying to sell yourself as a professional and you sound everything but. use less words and more content. I would go as far as taking this and other videos like it down and start afresh. this was creepy. (but i did learn some very important aspects to wordpress though, so kudos!)

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
