Starting Strong with WordPress

26th July 2020 by Glasgowapuu

Kayleigh Thorpe is Starting Strong with WordPress
© 34SP.com

This is a talk about about setting up a website. As a WordPress Specialist at 34SP, Kayleigh Thorpe has been asked ALL the questions about starting a WordPress website… even some sensible ones!! If you follow her guidelines you are starting strong with WordPress.

In this 30-40 minute talk, Kayleigh will describe how she goes about setting up a website — the Plugins she instals first, what she looks for in a Theme, the security steps she takes first.

This could be just be the nudge you need to finally get your website up and running. See you online.

Access to this talk is via the WP Glasgow MeetUp. Please register there so we know who to send the Zoom link to.

The WP Glasgow MeetUp

During the pandemic, the WP Glasgow MeetUp — like most MeetUp groups — has gone online. Over 100 individuals taking part during lockdown. A combination of talks and workshops helps spread the word on how WordPress can simplify the process of getting a website up and running.

Generally we meet on the fourth Tuesday of every month. It can vary but that is what we aim for. We start gathering at 6pm and any talk we do will begin at 6:30. Talks are usually 30 to 40 minutes long and there is plenty of time to ask questions at the end.

And this month (July) it’s aimed at people who are relatively new to the WordPress experience. ‘Starting Strong with WordPress’ is intended to provide a path through the jargon and patter that inevitably accompanies such a venture.

WordPress powers over one-third of all the websites on the internet. It’s a free tool that allows you to create great looking websites without compromising your content. You can even change your site’s ‘look’ without having to re-do all your content again.


Supported by…

The WP Glasgow online MeetUps are hosted by 34SP who have provided us with the means to hold Zoom Meetups that last more than 40 minutes (!)

Website Security

Are you confident that your website security is up to the job? Would you like some tips to help you improve your site’s security and plug some of those gaps you have been meaning to fill?

We are pleased to announce our
August Glasgow WordPress Meetup which is on

Tuesday 27 August

So How Secure Is Your Site Really?

Doors open at 6pm for a 6:30pm start
Venue: Scottish Youth Theatre ‘Silver Room’

Glasgow

Tim Nash, from one of our main sponsors 34SP, will be visiting Glasgow to provide some guidance on some of the things you could — and should — be doing to improve your website security.

He will also advise on penetration testing (‘pentesting’) which is a means of using the tactics used by hackers in order to test how secure (or not!) your site actually is.
