3 Learning Tracks

One of the nice things about wordpress is that it allows every level of user to operate and participate. The beginner can use their site like a blogging word doc, while at the same time a developer can write some incredibly complicated plugins – All this under one roof. Pretty great right?

This year there are 3 different tracks to accommodate the different levels of wordpress users. There are functions for the beginners – just learn what this blogging thing is all about; there areas for blogging for business with Darragh Doyle…and of course the Developer track.

Each of these sections will give you much needed insights into the realm of wordpress and how you can optimise your site traffic to benefit your bottom line.
