What is WordPress?
WordPress is an amazing, open source, FREE tool that takes the pain out of managing and updating your website. If you can post to a blog, you can manage an entire website! You install it, add in a theme, and start posting content. No more calling a designer, putting in a change request, and waiting for them to fit you in – add pages, rearrange content, update your portfolio – it’s easy enough for you to make changes yourself .
What is a Theme?
If WordPress is the box you store all of your content in, a theme is the wrapping paper! A theme sets up all of your sites functionality (content galleries, sidebar areas, and other layout features) and design – the colors, images and typography. You are basically buying the code that displays your content in a web browser.
What is Customization?
Maybe you are at a point in your business where you don’t want the same theme that just anyone can go out and buy. Your business is unique, so you want your site to be unique, as well. Using the code as a base, we add new colors, type and graphics to create a look that is yours alone.
“Janets training and enthusiasm for social media helped me realize my passion and refocus my business. Although I was already using Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, at the end of the course, my profiles were updated with more powerful information, and I have implemented all of the tools that Janet recommended to help maintain my networks more effectively and in less time, not only for my business but more importantly for my clients. Both the forum and follow-up Q and A calls were a tremendous source of information and ideas. Thank you Janet for such a great training program!” - Sheila Starkey, Smart Social Media Marketer 
“I participated in the “Shopping Cart” webinar training sessions with Janet Majoulet-Foust, The Social Media Queen. The sessions were very informative, taking us through each tab and the choices under each. Watching Janet go through each choice under each sub-menu, along with her clear explanation of what each field means, and what the effect is when using it worked well for me. Her narrative also described potential pitfalls, so your don’t have to “learn the hard way”, like she did. This course was extremely beneficial and I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn the social media software in a very user-friendly environment, where you are free (and encouraged) to ask lots of questions.” Colleen Ambre
