I have several reference books to help me learn how to work with Wordpress. Some are helpful, others just add to my confusion and frustration. This book has so far been the most helpful of the lot. Briefly, and in simple words and descriptions, it has given me a much clearer picture of the terminology and the aspects of building a website in Word Press. Thank you, Mr. Patrick, for being truly helpful. This won't be the only resource I use, but it is truly useful!

I picked this up because I wanted a straightforward guide without too much jargon. The book does a great job of breaking things into simple steps, especially for someone starting out.

One part I liked was the emphasis on choosing reliable hosting early. I’ve personally used
[Ucartz]( https://www.ucartz.com)
for one of my WordPress sites, and it matched a lot of what the book recommends about finding affordable, stable hosting.

Overall, the book is a solid beginner’s reference. If you want a quick start, this will help, and pairing it with the right hosting provider makes the whole process smoother.

j Great Book

The book was well written. It was easy to follow the steps given for creating a WordPress website. The one thing I disliked he primarily gave instructions for using Bluehost. Brian did mention other hosting companies; however, he did not give instructions for any of those companies. He did indicate that he is using Bluehost for his and other websites he has created for clients.

Short and to the point book about creating a website with WP. Author shares many videos and other step by step resources from buying a domain, where to host the domain and installing WP. He explains also 5 main blocks that creates the website and advises to map the website before starting the purchases. Good read and highly recommend for those with limited or no knowledge about WP.

Straight-forward and to the point. This book gives you the information you need to get a basic wordpress website set-up rapidly. It's not very in depth or complicated, but it acts as a good, clear and actionable starting point for anyone new to the subject.

Good information

A good basic understanding of Wordpress is provided. Would have been helpful to have provided some examples of sites and plugins though. Will definitely follow their blog, take advantage of the videos and search for more like minded information on Wordpress.
