Hi, friends! 👋 Leslie here from Team FBP, and I’m so excited to announce a brand new course launching today!
We’re going back to the basics with this course, and we’re covering anything and everything related to Publishing a Blog Post.
There are currently over 58,000 plugins available that bloggers can use to enhance their WordPress sites (and that’s counting only the free ones).
