This video walk-through is a follow-on to my recent post How To Create a Custom Page Template in WordPress. In the video, we’ll walk through how to create a WordPress Page to show up as the default for your website (instead of the standard list of blog posts.)
Then we’ll take it to the next level and customize that start page by removing the title and sidebar so that you can completely control what shows up on the home page of your website.
Check it out and let me know if you have any questions in the comments below!

This is a follow-on from my article called: How To Make WordPress Look Like a Website, where we walked through changing which page shows up as the home page for your WordPress website. The idea was to make it look more like a web site rather than a blog.

If you are a Chiropractor, or any small business owner with a physical office or storefront, are you using the web to attract new customers to your business? If not, you might be missing out on a huge opportunity.
Chiropractic Website Tips
Here is a list of 10 online marketing tips for Chiropractors.

If you are using Google Friend Connect, you know that you can set it up to work with social networks like Plaxo and Orkut so that you can invite your friends from those networks when you are viewing a Friend Connect enabled website. You can also share the Friend Connect enabled site with your friends on Facebook.
Now you can set up your Friend Connect account so that you can share sites with your Twitter followers!
When you join a friend connected site, you can use your Twitter profile, discover people you follow on Twitter who are also members of the site, and quickly tweet that you have found a cool website.
Since the range of Friend Connect enabled Gadgets is pretty limited so far, it’s great to see Google adding more and more access points to and from Friend Connect.
