Product Description

Product Description

WordPress is an open-source personal publishing platform that is easy to use, flexible, and highly customizable. Although used primarily for publishing blogs, WordPress can easily be used to create and maintain complete Web sites.

Taking the average blogger further than blogspot can, WordPress allows bloggers to create more complicated sites with their open-source technology, rather than blogger which is limited by HTML changes to their templates.

This easy-to-follow, step-by-step guide shows you how to install, use, and customize WordPress to get the most from the software. Includes tips that explain why certain techniques are better than others, how to watch for potential problems, and where readers can find more information.

4.0 out of 5 stars Who Needs a Blogging Book?, 5 Jan 2007
By Andy (Lerwick, Shetland United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
It's surprising what little gems you pick up when you pick up a book and go throught the pages. This one is excellent. I had expected huge diagrams, little text and loads of white space. Far from it. Nicely laid out. Informative pictures and text. It even has sections on some of the blogging tools that you can use like Ecto. Again, informative if brief.

As an ex-IT Trainer I know the value of graphics. If you don't learn something from this then you never opened the cover. Try it. It's good.

4.0 out of 5 stars Using two books to set up Wordpress, 9 Aug 2006
By JM (Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews
I am currently using two books to set up Wordpress. Reading 'Blog Design Solutions' helped me set up my computer to create a local test environment (so I don't have to upload my blog to the web to test it). 'Wordpress Visual Quickstart' is proving a good guide to all the features and personal customisation that Wordpress offers.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very poor, 14 Oct 2009
I bought this quite a while ago, and just happened to be browsing today, and wondered how many stars this woeful book got. I was surpised to see a 4 star rating, a rating it most definitely dooes not deserve. This is a very poor entry in the Visual Quickstart series.

It's far too slim a volume for such a configurable tool as Wordpress, and leaves great gaping holes in its instructions, over explaining in some areas, and under explaining in others.

Although it was not worth buying when it originally came out, it's definitely not worth buying now, as it's out of date. I'd hate for someone to be fooled by the 4 star rating and drop the cash on this dud.
