This Site and How I Build it

The core structure of this website was constructed during timeless nights in the period of about two weeks. I am completely new to “real” website building, html and php. I built a few sites before with Yahoo SiteBuilder, which worked fine until my content became too much to handle on a static site. I needed to take a step forward and learn to build a CMS website. This site works for which I am more than thankful; I should share with you how it is done.

This site is powered by WordPress and Revolution Magazine by Brian Gardner.

I cannot stress how much easier this whole new site building process has been than I expected, due mostly to the Revolution Magazine. It is a widget-ready WordPress-based Ezine Theme that works. No programming involved. It is more than a theme: Revolution is a system.

Help and Customer Care
Need help? Visit the forum. Need some custom code? Visit the forum. Think it’s over your head? Visit the forum. Not only is Revolution user-friendly, its users are friendly, too. The forum is very active, responsive and a lot of people who started out asking for help has hung around to offer help. Brian Gardner has also authored a series of video tutorials for those less-than-internet-savvy folks like me, who still want a professional looking blog.

This Magazine-style website in a .zip file comes ready to launch. Click here to get it. After that: just add content.
