Teaching WordPress to your clients

This is the first WonderThemes guest blog post by UK web designer Laura Kalbag. If you fancy yourself a WordPress guru and want to post in this blog just drop us a line.

Teaching WordPress to clients is big business. There are books, training courses and pricey online guides out there, but what if your client is on a budget?

I just like to help my clients hit the ground running with the basics. Often you’ll find that the WordPress admin is so well (and consistently!) designed that once your client has learnt how to do the basics, they can pick the rest up with little help.

So what are the basics?

If you’re making use of some of the brilliant new features of WordPress, as well as the old goodies, then you’ll be likely to teach your clients the following points. I’ve provided a checklist below with some great text and video tutorials to help out you and your clients.

Affiliates? Yup!

Hey everyone! Its been a fun couple of week since we started selling our vendor products :)

One of the BIG questions since then has been ‘are you guys planning an affiliate scheme’ the answer to this is, of course, yes!

Invite only (for now)

Think you have the skills to be an affiliate for WonderThemes? Let us know here:

Affiliate Sign Up

I'm interested in being a WonderAffiliate and helping you test the system before launch!
  • We won't spam/share or anything
  • Have you done this before? If not, that's cool, just let us know.

We are currently collecting names to test the system out and you do not have to be a vendor/member of the site to qualify, all you need is experience in affiliate marketing and a clean record (no spammers please!).

Earn up-to 30% on each sale!

Like our current vendor payment rates our affiliate system will be flexible and competitive. The maximum any referral will earn will be 30% on each sale, this will be deducted from the vendors earnings.

We are still working on making this scheme as competitive as we can and full details and disclosure will be available within the next month :)
