Small Business Social Media – Links

Open Source Tools

Utilization of open source software is a key to controlling budgets for small business and for the individual as well, All too often people and businesses make brand name calls, like Microsoft Office, when programs like Open Office and Libre Office do everything needed, including reading Microsoft formats, and have no licensing fees to contend with. The New updates are included as well and it is just a good deal over all. The Open Source and Free Software

WordPress

WordPress is web software you can use to create a beautiful website or blog. WordPress powers more websites than any other software on the planet. I like to say that WordPress is both free and priceless at the same time. The core software is built by the huge WordPress community and when you’re ready to kick it up a notch there are thousands of plugins and themes available to transform your site into almost anything you can imagine. Over 60 million people have chosen WordPress to power the place on the web they call “home” — joining the family is easy as most hosting companies have WordPress easy installation scripts. I strongly recommend WordPress over things like WebSite Tonight or any other such hype, as one quickly runs into limitations and / or finds themselves locked to one vendor. WordPress works everywhere. Here are some links to help you get to know WordPress better.

As Always, Thanks,
