Since the discussion about websites on here a few months ago, I've had a
number of potters hire me privately to help with their websites and answe=

about 20-30 other potters on questions as well related to putting up a

I run a couple of WordCamps (look it up) and teach WordPress often, so I
thought I'd try a webinar, for potters interested in learning WordPress.
I'll have everyone sign up for WordPress.com accounts beforehand (they're=

person since I get charged for the webinar service, but hopefully people
will find it affordable.
