"WordPress Websites Step-by-Step" by Caimin Jones is the owner's manual that should come with every website or blog developed by using WordPress. Caimin has extensive experience using WordPress, and he has encountered just about every question anybody could come up with. He has taken his knowledge, distilled the techno-speak down to plain English, and put together what could easily be called a "Do It Yourself" guide to building a website or blog. Just making that one simple accommodation would be a great help to most people, but Caimin went even further with his desire to make this easy. He has created a step-by-step set of instructions to help you build a website using WordPress, with its many helpful and included tools. His title says it all: "WordPress Websites Step-by-Step". It can't get any clearer than that!

When I was a child, certain toy kits came with instructions like this: "Insert Tab A into Slot B", which sounds simple enough, until you actually start trying to find Tab A or Slot B. Caimin's instructions are nothing like that. He provides a laundry list of options for your consideration, then shows and tells you WHERE to find what you'll need to implement your chosen option, and then shows and tells you HOW to do what you have to do to end up with what you want to end up with. (That last sentence is more complicated than Caimin's instructions!) This book should really be on your bookshelf if you think you will ever even consider the possibility of developing your own website, online store, or blog. Even if you NEVER intend to do any of those things, but are just curious about how they are done, you need this book. This is the cookbook containing the recipe for how to make a professional looking, inexpensive website. I heartily recommend it for anybody who knows how to turn on a computer, and click a mouse.
