Each month we cover a key topic for WordPress websites and finish with a Q and A - no question too small or daft!

Top 5 Essential Plugins For Your Business Website

Plugins are wonderful. It’s plugins that transform your WordPress website from an online platform that shows people what you do and how they can contact you into a powerhouse that can market, sell, deliver your products and services, and actually administer your business on autopilot.

They are amazing and there are thousands of them.

However, they are not all created equal, some don’t work, some are badly coded and will slow or break your site. Even if they’re well built, they don’t all play nicely with your WordPress theme or your other plugins, which means you can end up with broken functions, or even the white screen of death when your website seems to totally disappear off the internet.

In the July WordPress Academy we’re sharing our top 5 Essential Plugins, the ones you really can’t do without. We tell you where to get them, how to install them and what precautions you must take before you start pressing buttons.

This is an online event with screen sharing and you can ask questions as we go along.

The webinar will be recorded so you can have a copy of it as well.

Please bring your own tea and coffee this time and of course some Jammy Dodgers and we look forward to connecting with you online.

This event is usually held in our offices and these are the venue details:

Arrival, Parking and Transport

We get started properly at 6 pm but you can turn up anytime from 5 pm and enjoy a hot drink until we’re ready to go.

Tea, coffee and biscuits are included.

Parking is free (but can be limited) and is to the rear of the hotel and you can access it by Gundolf Road. There is a walk up some steep steps to reach the hotel if you want to take the shortcut.

You must register your car registration number at the hotel reception.

If that is full there is paid parking in the streets around and opposite the hotel.

Disabled parking is available in the building next door to the hotel - The Dragon Hub.

If you are arriving by train, the hotel is a short walk from Chatham station and about 20-minutes walk from Rochester train station.

What Topics Won't Be Covered?

We won't be covering how to build a Website, beyond recommending developers or specialist website builders if you want to DIY.

If your site is having problems it will not be possible to do any repairs or work on specific issues for your website, hosting or software.
