And you don’t want to do it yourself, and you want it done fast… right? That’s cool. You’re in the right place. First, just so you’re not surprised, there is some fine print. Mainly, the given price applies ONLY IF YOU DON’T YET HAVE WEBSITE HOSTING. (I keep this service so cheap by sending you through a special affiliate link when you buy your hosting, and the hosting company sends me a commission. If you don’t get hosting, I work for too cheap. And that’s not cool.) So if you don’t yet have hosting for your blog, AWESOME. Don’t get it yet. I’ll walk you through the right way to get it after we start working together. (If you have questions about what hosting costs, that info is here.) If, however, you do have hosting? We can still work together, but you should read this. (And if you have no idea what I’m talking about with “hosting,” it’s cool… just keep reading.) So let’s talk about the service, shall we? . What I’ll do:
. What’s not includedBecause hey, we’ve gotta have some limits here
Don’t worry. WordPress is easy, and the video I’ll give you will show you how to do most of the basics. You WILL be able to use this site. It’s so easy that even those Geico Insurance cavemen guys can do it, regardless of whether or not that statement offends them. . How this worksInterested? Ready to buy? Well, if you’re super itchy; you can go ahead and skip on down to the big BUY NOW button and click on it. But if you’d like a bit more detail on the procedure, here’s how we roll:
So, ready to roll? Yeah. I think so. Let’s roll. GET YOURS!
Frequently-Asked Questions:
A: If you don’t have hosting, don’t go out and buy any until I tell you. But after you buy the blog setup, I’ll direct you to a Hostgator plan that can cost as little as $4/month, but which is more commonly $7/month. (Please note that in order to qualify for the base price, you will need to pay for the full year (not monthly) and cannot use promo codes other than the one I provide.) * (Note that if you already have purchased from HostGator before, you can’t use this option and still qualify for the base price.) Domain names are around $10 per year. A: Yes, but because I won’t get the hosting affiliate commission that subsidizes the normal price, it’ll cost you an additional charge. A: If your hosting is on GoDaddy or any hosting running cPanel and offering Fantastico Deluxe or an equivalent (HostGator, DreamHost, BlueHost), then it’s $50. The upcharge is $75 for other hosting setups. A: Yes! Check out the big orange sidebar on this page for more info. A: These:

(AKA “Stuff you can add on to this service”) People kept asking me to add this or that to their blogs and sites, so I figured I should just start offering this and that to everyone. The following descriptions are to help you decide if you want any of the add-ons. We’ll settle the details after you’ve checked out, including telling me your theme choices, signing up for your mailing list, and handling the particulars of any blog migration. Premium WordPress Theme
Woo Themes are flat-out beautiful, right out of the metaphorical box. You’ll be able to pick any one of these themes and look like a pro from the get-go. PRICE: $100 additional (includes theme)
Thesis is somewhat of a celebrity in the world of Themes for its search engine optimization prowess and for being highly configurable even by non-techies. However, let’s face it… the default Thesis look is boring, so this service includes setting you up with a Thesis skin of your choice. PRICE: $150 additional (includes theme and skin)
Headway takes “user configurability” to ridiculous new levels. Using its unique drag-and-drop, intuitive interface, you’ll be able to rearrange page elements, style your site, add header images all without technical help. (Note: For this reason, I don’t “style” Headway for you. I set it up and you do the rest.) PRICE: $100 additional (includes theme)
Migration of an existing blog Please note that this is a “just move the stuff” migration. Your old posts won’t automatically redirect to your new site, and you’ll probably want to post to your old blog to let people know you’ve moved. PRICE: $75 additional
Mailing list setup I’ll set you up with aWeber, which is what I and most professionals use. I’ll set you up A to Z and put a signup form on your site so that people can join your list, and all you’ll need to do is to urge people to sign up and start emailing. PRICE: $100 additional
Carts and e-Commerce Because these services are still in the initial phase — I’m still working to define what they include, basically — I haven’t added them to my own cart and buying options you see over there at the left. If you’d like this option, just email me and we’ll discuss it. NOTE: All of my cart setups — including the top tier service — use PayPal and/or Google Checkout (allows anyone to pay with a credit card without logging in to anything) as their payment options. I don’t set up FULL-ON payment gateways and real time processing, but IMO most people never need it and it can cost a fortune both to set up and maintain. Also note that these carts are “I set it up and you fill it up.” I’ll hook you up with your first few products if you have them ready, but you’ll largely be adding subsequent products to the cart yourself. PRICE: $100-$600 additional depending on level of setup
