Good course - the examples, however are from 5 years back. WordPress and Blogger have gone through several updates since the course was put out. It was frustrating trying to follow the outdated examples with the new versions of WordPress and Blogger.

I was really disappointed when found out that the many ideas on how to improve my existing blog did not work since the functions shown in the video are no longer there (in Blogger). The Site Google+ which was supposedly a great alternative to Facebook no longer exists. All in all the course is outdated.

A bit slow starting but gave me good grounding in Wordpress blogs. Lacked some of the depth I wanted but is great as a starter video.

This was a good start. It didn't assume that you already knew a lot of things that perhaps you didn't know.

I really learned a lot. It was not easy for you to present the two blogs as example but you did it in the least confusing way possible.
Thanks
