Although I was first there to open a blogger account and use it – albeit temporarily – I’m finding the concept of using WordPress as a fully integrated website not so easy-going. After spending a couple of weeks just diving into it, with only a small amount of research and reading, I have realised that I need to make a plan! I have agreed with a ‘new’ client (who will be named AW) what he wants out of the website, and now it’s up to me to implement it. That is, firstly choose the most suitable theme. And this is for me so far the most difficult part. The World Wide Web seems to be inundated with WordPress templates – both free and premium – and the more of them I see, the less unsure I become of which one to use! I’ve opted for a paid theme (or at least AW has since he’s the one with the money); unfortunately there is quite a steep learning curve here. Now for someone who is au fait and more realxed than me with CSS coding, this would be a doddle. After all I have a manual and a good support forum at hand to help me out. In some ways it’s like learning a new language: I’m finding that slowly I’m not needing my translating dictionary so much! *sighs*

Hush now, I need to get back to work….

P.S I really am enjoying myself, but wish I could devote much more time to the learning process. I have a feeling I will have finished AW’s website BEFORE I find the time to read the three supposedly-helpful e-books I’ve bought to guide me.
