Takes place at your home or office
Completely tailored to your ability and website
5 Star Google Rated + near legendary aftercare for total peace of mind
Our training is either one-to-one or in small groups and takes place at your office or home. It is specific to your website which means throughout the day you can ask relevant questions so you know how to achieve the business-specific aims we set at the beginning of the day.
Somerset WordPress Training is usually a one day event but if we haven’t covered everything we can always book other days; it depends how much detail you would like to get in to. Usually one day is enough, from 10am to around 3-4pm. You will end the day with the knowledge and confidence to edit and develop your website.
You also receive 1 month’s phone & email support, should there be anything you’re not certain of.

Hi Paul, just to say thanks for making what I was anticipating would be a necessary but somewhat dull day, both interesting and productive. The website looks so much better, and as someone who had a very limited knowledge of Wordpress beforehand, I now have the confidence to make changes to layout / text and photos when I need to. Plus I know you are only a phone call away if I do get stuck! Thanks again. Gareth.

I am setting up a small business and have tried to build a website, E-mail and link it all together. I am a complete beginner and eventually found it too frustrating as I do not understand IT jargon. Paul was fantastic as not only was he happy to travel to me on a weekend me but he managed to demystify WordPress by talking to me in my language. This shows he is a skillful teacher as I was able to leave a one day session with the knowledge to confidentially and quickly edit my website.
, SomersetI had a one-to-one course on Wordpress that has taken me from no knowledge to the point where I am confident I can install and maintain multiple blogs. We started slowly and covered the basics and then did another lap where we dug deeper into the detail. The final stage covered installation of the plug-ins I need to achieve the specific user experience and site security that I require. This last phase went beyond training and into expert advice. I am very happy to recommend without reservation.
, DevonHow refreshing to find a WordPress trainer who comes to you – and in my case on a Saturday! The fact that it was one-to-one meant that it was structured to suit my personal needs and moved at a pace that was right for me. Paul is an excellent trainer and knows his subject inside out. It was great value and left me with confidence that I can achieve what I want from the superb WordPress platform.
