Notes de l'éditeur
- Tell about Interwoven and CMS background, $250K average sale price - ff to today and you have this free open source tool
- Trade offs with WordPress.com: - Limited choice of themes - Limited choice of plugins - No AdSense advertising - Can be banned, don’t own your site - Domain name
- WordPress itself was created on a nonprofit basis, is a mission-driven organization and is sustained on a community-oriented model, that those who benefit also help develop it.
- 1 - WordPress is for websites too! What is the difference between a blog and a website?? 2 - Any cms that executes code needs to be secured and updated properly 3 - Amazing community support, support can also be purchased from reputable companies and consultants
- http://www.boyslife.org - Great example of a “website” based on WordPress.
- http://newsroom.redcross.org -
- They are also doing video on this site - super easy to embed YouTube videos. Now WordPress makes it even easier - just add your YouTube link to a page or post and it will show up automagically!
- http://livestrongblog.org - Lance Armstrong’s Livestrong blog is run on WordPress. Once again you see the videos, community support and interaction, etc.
- Every WordPress site comes with its own “RSS” feed, which makes it easy to syndicate your content to other places on the web. Notably sites like Facebook, Twitter, etc. Having a YouTube channel is also highly recommended, as YouTube is the #2 search engine right now!!
- Adding a Facebook Widget or Share Button to your WordPress site is very easy to do
- Share buttons are easily embeddable in your theme, or via plugins
- And there are many other possibilities for building vibrant communities around your WordPress website.
- Here’s a great example of how to build community using WordPres Mu - http://www.duluthcitizen.org. Notice how members can have their own blogs and profiles, and their blog posts are featured on the main page
- Members have their own profiles
- Content is also organized into groups, and members can have their own blogs as well
- There are tons of great video tutorials showing you how to do just about everything with WordPress.
