Your Prescription for website wellness & wizardry
Join The WordPress Geek Squad
Ready to stop self-diagnosing the problem & get some honest, practical advice and solutions?
Remember those late-night Google searches peppered with terms like 'best WordPress plugin for X' or 'how to troubleshoot Y' in WordPress?
It feels like searching for a needle in a haystack while wearing oven mitts—frustrating and time-consuming.
There's this underlying fear of messing things up so badly that you might break the internet (okay, maybe just your website).
But here’s the kicker:
Every minute spent doubting yourself or fearing technology is a minute not spent bringing those amazing ideas to life and curing those website woes.
Let's flip the script on tech intimidation!
Let’s talk about finding the right support.
Imagine being part of a community where asking questions doesn't make you feel like you're back in high school algebra class 😅.

Those extra hours are now spent on what truly matters: bringing your creative ideas to life and growing your business.

Michelle's WordPress Learning Space membership has truly been a game-changer for me! Her training videos cover the entire process from the setup phase (choosing the right host, theme builders, and plugins for creating your website) to maintenance and growth phases (troubleshooting, backing up, utilizing SEO, integrating email platforms, etc.).

Michelle is amazing. I have learned more about my website and gotten more done in the past couple of weeks than I have in the past year. I feel as though I have found a true treasure with the WordPress Learning Space.

"I have had the most complicated and weird tech problem and you never give up and try to find ways to make things work all the time even if it means finding totally out of the box ideas [...] you make Wordpress simple! I was so afraid of Wordpress at first but with the right info and training it's not scary anymore!

"I absolutely adore the office hours for the most complex questions for my website and it goes often way more then just basic website stuff as all that we put on the website is related to the business strategy and I love how you can have an overview of the entire business and make recommendations based on that to make the website better and not only apply tech stuff.

Thanks to a jam-packed session with Michelle I have been able to completely revamp my website. It is so much more effective thanks to many great tips and tricks Michelle was able to point out-I took pages of notes just from one session! I highly recommend Michelle to anyone considering her services, she is extremely knowledgeable and a delight to work with.

Hey-o! I have questions!
Well, you're in luck! Because I built the WordPress Learning Space Geek Squad (*whew* that was a mouth full) for you. We start from the basics of WordPress (I highly recommend starting with the WordPress DIY StartUp Kit) and you get to build piece by piece with plugin tutorial videos, a play space for you to practice what you learn before you add it to your site and a Facebook support group to ask your questions.
No matter how little or how advanced you are, the Learning Space is the place to play and continue learning step by step.
Well, you're in luck! Because I built the WordPress Learning Space Geek Squad (*whew* that was a mouth full) for you. 😉
The more customization you do, the more important it is to find the plugins that work well with your current tech stack and still have the functionality you need. Hi and hello! They call me Moogle for a reason. The Super Geek Squad would be a great fit for you and we'll figure it out together.
A returning WordPresser?? Yay!!
I will say - WordPress is a pretty misunderstood creature. Yes, it's bad rep is there for a reason, but honestly, it's because we didn't understand it from the beginning. As technical as it seems to be, if you understand the foundations, it's a lot easier to handle issues, plan ahead and even strategize to use it to its fullest extent and make your website work harder for you.
The Learning Space + the Geek Squad at any level is here to help you start from the basics and build on it. And trust me, going back to remind yourself of the foundations of WordPress just makes everything easier. And all the available tutorials are there for you when you need to come back to it again and again.
Great question! The videos are currently organized in design or tech spaces. There are also thumbnails as to which page/theme builder the video applies to. If you still can't find what you're looking for you can:
- use the search bar at the top of your student area, accessible from any page,
- ask/request a video when you can't find the one you want or need,
- post in the students-only Facebook group that comes with your membership and get answers from yours truly, as well as your fellow Geek Squad-ers.
- as a Super Geek Squad-er, come and join office hours! We talk WordPress but we also talk business and strategy of your website because they go hand-in-hand. I'll help you come up with a plan.
- dive into the DIY StartUp Kit course even if you're not a newbie. The videos will give you a refresh but also warm up your brains to start thinking about your website and give you ideas on what you want to tackle first.
I'm here to help you get past that dreaded First Step Hump.
Yes! Any time. Just head to your account area. You can also put your account on hold if you need to take a break and come back when you're ready!
Oh my! Just about everything WordPress and website related!
If you're starting fresh and new, we'll help you choose a domain, choose a host provider, teach you how install WordPress on your host provider and all the security that goes with it!
- We talk plugins - which are the best and how to choose one without fearing it'll break things, how to update them without the anxiety and hold your hand while we figure out what's wrong if a plugin breaks!
- We also talk website strategy and planning, design principles and if you're a Super Geek Squad-er, you'll get feedback with Loom videos as well as troubleshooting from Yours Truly for the really gnarly issues.
- We also talk about SEO and how to get the fundamentals to set up your site for SEO success along with user experience, A/B testing, and more.
- We also talk about starting to sell! Setting up your shop, how to connect to your payment methods (and which ones to choose!), how to collecting taxes, charging in different currencies and delivering your product - print or virtual.
The Geek Squad is here to equip you with what you need to make your WordPress DIY journey as smooth as possible and make your website something you're truly proud of (and make that moolah, of course!)
I get it — WordPress and your website are big undertakings with big decisions. But I will say, if you're on a new journey, start anywhere! Getting off the ground is 50% of the battle. And while we want to make sure we start off on the right platform, the reality is that you might change platforms in the next year or two while you start to gather the right tools to run your business.
WordPress is a learning curve but it is where, as you grow, many people end up because of it's flexibility and versatility to expand — you can DIY it now then hire a developer for more customization as you grow.
If you're hanging out here because you're curious, then check out the free Beginner's Manual - 6 things you need to know about WordPress — maybe I can convince you there. 😛
Absolutely. One of the things I usually end up saying to myself when working with clients was, 'I wish they had known ____ sooner!" then their site would be set up properly and have a solid understanding of what there website can do and how to properly maintain it.
Then they can properly plan for their future and strategize accordingly.
I want that for you too.
With Super Geek Squad status you definitely get more personalized support in the form of videos, reviews, and live office hours. This is the bread and butter of the Super Geek Squad along with exclusive access to the Super Geek Squad Facebook group.
The DIY Geek Squad status you can still request tutorials which I will add to the queue and you can still ask questions in the students' Facebook Support group. I won't leave you hanging. 😊
Don't let tech fears hold you back any longer!
