What Makes WP101 Different?
Effective training videos are easy to understand, and communicate clearly from start to finish, not only explaining HOW to accomplish a task, but WHY the steps are important. The best training videos also show careful attention to detail and add value throughout. Good content is not enough if the audio quality is poor or if the presenter is hard to follow.
WP101 videos have been widely praised as the “gold standard” in WordPress training, and here are some reasons why:
Professional audio and video production. Crisp, clear sound and visuals.
Meticulously scripted. No awkward pauses, ‘uhs’ or ‘ums’ here!
Regularly updated with every single WordPress update since 2008.
Closed-captioned and Spanish subtitles, with more coming soon.
Additional Training: WP201 videos and dedicated courses for popular plugins.
The high production quality of WP101 videos means you can provide solid WordPress training to your clients without sacrificing the integrity of your own brand.

2. The WP101 Plugin
Ask yourself this question: “How much is one hour of your time worth?”
If you spend even one hour each month teaching clients how to use WordPress at a basic level, then the WP101 Plugin will more than pay for itself. Here are just some of the benefits the plugin offers:
Install on an unlimited number of your clients’ sites.
Includes the 20-part WordPress 101 video tutorial series, plus videos for Jetpack, WooCommerce, and the Yoast SEO plugin.
Videos play right in your client’s WordPress dashboard.
White-Labeled: The videos in the WP101 Plugin do not contain any logos, making them the perfect branding tool to add value to your service offerings.
Videos are streamed from a worldwide CDN, making for exceptionally fast load times.
Choose which videos you want to show clients and which you do not.
Add your own custom videos to tackle areas not covered in the series.
Many WordPress developers use the WP101 Plugin to provide training to their clients even before the project is complete. This not only provides value up front, but also enables the client to become familiar with WordPress basics while the project is still underway.
“The WP101 Plugin is a huge benefit to my business. Whenever I start a project, I send the client to a private server that is running the WP101 Plugin so they can watch the videos and become familiar with how WordPress works. Many of my clients have never used WordPress before and aren’t very tech-savvy. Before WP101, I’d often spend hours explaining how to manage menus or upload images to their site.” — Bill Erickson, Web Developer
Starting at just $19/month for installation on unlimited client sites, the WP101 Plugin is an absolute must for any developer or marketer who wants to boost their value to clients.
