I started building websites in 2006 with no idea what SEO even meant. I just knew I loved taking a concept and making it appear digitally in the form of a website. Years later, I discovered that SEO wasn’t just technical; it was a way to help people find what they’re looking for. I have a background in Spanish Linguistics that allowed me to see SEO as a language to learn. Now I lead SEO Training and Strategy for clients across industries. One of my deepest passions is helping businesses and organizations get found online.

What Is WordPress Coaching?

WordPress coaching is personalized training that helps you learn how to manage and improve your own WordPress website.

Instead of relying on tutorials or generic courses, coaching sessions focus on your specific website and goals. You’ll work directly with a WordPress expert who can guide you through updates, page layouts, plugins, SEO settings, and other key features of the platform. The agenda is customized based on your goals and current skill level.

Many people seek WordPress coaching because they want to gain independence from slow or unresponsive developers and feel confident making updates themselves.

First things first. We’ll discuss your website goals and challenges. Understanding what you want to accomplish helps us customize your individual WordPress coaching and training course for your unique needs.

How I Learned WordPress Without a Coach

When I started learning WordPress, I did it the way many of you have tried: without help.
Finally, after almost two years of persistent effort and building a few websites on trade, I had a solid handle on the platform.

Two years is a long time.

I don’t think learning WordPress has to be so tough. So when I decided to learn Search Engine Optimization (SEO), I decided to take a faster route.

I hired a virtual coach who trained me from Denver.

During our virtual coaching sessions, I was impressed with how easily he communicated his knowledge and authority on the topic – he provided answers to questions I didn’t even know to ask! That was my first experience with virtual learning, and it was worth every penny.

Despite my initial hesitations about virtual instruction, I am thankful that I took the plunge. I know it can seem “not quite as good” as face-to-face learning. I wondered:

  • Could I really learn this way?
  • Would I get as much value from the coaching?

Thankfully, I didn’t let my doubts get the best of me. That virtual learning experience not only changed the way I did business – it changed my life.

I invested in WordPress and coaching for the same reason you’re here today: independence.

For me, I wanted the independence to transition from selling for other people to selling my own material.

For you, independence may mean something different. Maybe you want to:

  • Save money by not having to hire someone to do this for you.
  • Break free from a reliance on an unresponsive marketing agency.
  • Handle this responsibility that’s been handed to you by your boss.

My path to mastering WordPress led me down a road of trial and error, a bad experience with an affordable website designer, launching my own web design agency, and meeting all kinds of business owners.

Your journey may look a bit different, but I, as your WordPress coach, hope I can help you end up at a similar destination: independent mastery over this powerful platform.

Let’s take a look at how we’ll help you get there…
