WordPress Basics:
Getting familiar with your wordpress theme is essential. Really explore your wordpress dashboard and get a feeling for where everything is located so you can make quick adjustments when needed. Although all themes are different, most quality themes will allow you to make easy adjustments when it comes to the design of your site.

Hey Jon
I’m now setting up my official blog and I just had to come back and watch your 10 day automation video series again. I must say that you couldn’t have make this process any more easier for any one to grasp rite a way.
Hi again Jon, I’d just like to know how to get the plugins tab into the wordpress dashboard
Hi Sakwasa, the plugins tab is automatically added when you install wordpress. Just look to the left hand side – it is below “appearance” 🙂
Sorry I should have been more specific, I was looking for wordpress.com’s plugin tab, but I recently found out that only .org has it.
Thanks for your help though
Highly beneficial appreciate it. It is my opinion your current audience may very well want even more posts similar to this continue the excellent hard work.
