Dear Friend,
My name is Justin Wright and I am a professional blogger, as well as the founder of ZoopMedia.
I have a good feeling you’re eager to get your blog or website up and running in 2010. Am I right?
I hope so, because 2010 is going to be a big year for all of us. The web is becoming more and more powerful as time passes on. It’s important to get out there and be known, especially if you run your own business.
It’s Easier Than You Think
The good news is that building and maintaining a professional blog or website isn’t as hard as think. Thanks to the easy to use WordPress platform.
Not only is WordPress FREE and SIMPLE to use, but it’s also easy to maintain, secure, and easy to expand to suit your needs.
Here at ZoopMedia, we constantly receive requests from people who want to migrate their websites over to the WordPress platform because they are frustrated with their current websites.
We don’t blame them for not wanting to keep a web designer on retainer only to make small changes. WordPress allows you to have complete control of your content with no need for any expensive software.
We’ll Teach You The Basics
Before you can get started however, you need to learn how to use the WordPress platform. Sure you could start searching the web for free tutorials, but why spend countless hours doing research when you can learn WordPress from a highly skilled professional in less than two hours?

We’ve spent hundreds of hours putting together this WordPress course that teaches you all the basics to get started right now. It’s much more effective than reading a book or listening to audio. You can learn WordPress by watching what’s on our screen! Talk about an easy way to learn.

Works With WordPress.org And WordPress.com
Best of all, the WordPress tutorials work for both the WordPress.org and WordPress.com versions. The only difference is that that the WordPress.com version does not have the ability use plugins or custom themes. Everything else works the same exact way!
Here’s what a recent client said about our course…
Awhile back I heard about this thing called blogging and I decided to give it a try. After countless wasted hours trying to learn WordPress, I quickly became frustrated by not being able to figure out how to do exactly what I wanted to do. Luckily I stumbled upon ZoopMedia’s Crash Course. In just a few hours, I was able to watch the WordPress tutorials, easily apply the techniques to my site, and from then on started spending most of my time being productive instead of spinning my wheels trying to figure out all the little details in Wordpress. I credit the Crash Course with taking me from a frustrated noob to the owner of several successful websites.”
