Signed Wordpress For Dummies Book Being Given Away!

I know you’ve already heard about the new Lisa Sabin-Wilson book, Wordpress for Dummies, which has been launched recently.  While the title seems to  give the impression that this book is only for beginners, the content certainly is useful not only for beginners but those who’ve already been long-time users of WP as blogging platform.

The book contains information on:

  • Signing up for a free WordPress account
  • Setting up and using a hosted blog with WordPress.com
  • Installing and setting up the WordPress.Org and WordPress.MU software for single- and multi-user versions
  • Finding great themes, plugins, and consultants that will help you achieve JUST the kind of blog you want
  • Using tags to work with WordPress templates
  • Dealing challenges with comments, trackback spam, and “splogs”
  • Adding special technologies to your blog, such as RSS feed, podcasting, vlogging, and photoblogging
  • Finding online support, tips, and resources for WordPress software

And while most of you will say that most of these information are available online, I’d say that it’s still an advantage to have all these information in just one book which could be easily carried around.  It’s certainly better to have all of those a browse away instead of searching for it online whenever you need to check or verify something.  Also, you’d know that the information is credible because it came from a trusted source.

So, you want to have this book?  Or better, a signed copy of Wordpress for Dummies book?

Casual Keystrokes has one waiting to be given away!  All you’ve got to do to have a chance at that signed copy of the book is to go to Casual Keystrokes blog (by clicking here), read the post and the guidelines for joining the contest.

Nope, I’m not receiving any commissions for referrals.  In fact, I also joined in the contest.  Though it’s highly unlikely that I’d win with just an entry, but I think it’d still be fun.  So you might want to try your luck too.  :-)
