    Getting Gutenberg to Do What You Want It to Do
    
    WordPress is the ideal way to make a web site whether you want to do it all by yourself, have some outside help, or let someone do the entire site. You may have heard the Word Press now has a new page editor know as Gutenberg. The Gutenberg editor features a block editing system. All content types – such as paragraphs, headings, images and videos – and more are created by inserting a block into a page or post. This webinar will show you all the really cool plugins that you can use to ensure that Gutenberg performs in the way you intend so you can create effective websites for yourself and clients.
    
    Included in the price of the webinar is a 45-minute phone consultation with Bud to help you with your own website.
    
    Bud brings over 20 years of experience teaching best practices with WordPress (in New York City and beyond) to every project he gets involved with. From startup sites to site re-designs, it is his experience and professionalism that clients have come to depend on.
    Bud is very active and well known in the WordPress community in and around the New York City area.
    
    He has over 50 videos in two free WordPress classes.
