      Thanks for this podcast. It was just in time for me. I have been asked quite a few times to set up a website for others. I’m actually doing this right now.
      I think this would be a great webinar. You could cover about how to handle passwords and theme options.
      Also thanks for the mailchimp webinar. I was hoping you would cover autoresponders. But I still have a free account; so I guess I’m not ready for it anyway. I’ll just use the signup for a pdf instructions.
      thanks again.

        farmnwife I had planned on covering autoresponders, but I simple ran out of time! Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
