Wordpress Site Setup: Web Design With Wordpress for Social Media Success in St Petersburg,Tampa Bay,Florida

Your Wordpress site will be the center of your social media web marketing campaign.

What we need to do before we begin:

Save all content (pictures, text, etc.) from your current site, if you have one.
Establish a 5 or 10 dollar a month Linux hosting account with a hosting provider like GoDaddy.com. We can do this for you if you like.
Point your current domain name [yourbusinessnamehere.com] to the new hosting account– this will require: a) the domain name’s owner’s presence (you, presumably) and b) access to your current hosting account, and c) access to your new hosting account. In other words, you will need a computer and quite possibly a phone if you need to call your accounts for assistance. We can help you, or we can do this for you
–OR– grab a new domain name. We casn help you with this.
Establish a webmail email account to which we can have initial and temporary access. Later you can change your password. We’ll be happy to do this for you.
