New and Improved WordPress Workshop and Training Coming Soon
There has been a lot going on behind the scenes at The BizPal Company, LLC these days. There are a couple of new key developments that I want to share with you.
The first includes the re-vamping of my WordPress Website Boot Camp Training Workshops.
Feedback from my attendees told me that the training was great!
But there were some suggestions for improvements.
Here is What Past Trainees Said They Would Advise
- We think the pre-class homework should be part of the class
- We already have a WordPress Site and need help with this
- We want more time to work with concepts between classes
- We think a series of three (3) 1/2 day classes would be better
- We want the choice of another day besides Saturday mornings
- We want some online on-demand class options!
- We want Customized Training at our location!
Twitter HashTag
Twitter Hashtags are useful ways to use to categorize your tweets. You can do this to support marketing efforts and to be able to see all tweets related to a specific hasthag (#) at a later time.

I wanted to share with my readers some of the plans and actions I took along the way. Although throughout my social media case study (two-month period) I posted consistently to Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Google+; the activities I undertook had the greatest impact upon Twitter.
