Setting Up Your Wordpress Blog
This is going to be a little more complex than using Kajabi but that's okay! You got this!
Wordpress is where you will store all of your freebies and samples that you give away to teachers and school districts to try before they join your membership.
The reason we use Wordpress for your blog is because there is no comparison between WP and any other blogging platform.
LESSON #1
Log in to Wordpress and Choose a Theme
In this lesson we will be logging into Wordpress and choosing the theme for your blog. The theme is simply put the design of your blog.
We are only housing the bog on Wordpress so the theme is not super important. Almost all themes can accomplish what we need it to do.
We need a header, a footer, a sidebar, and the actual blog post area. Nothing fancy :)

Installing Your Wordpress Plugins
Since most of the heavy lifting is done on Kajabi we do not need many plugins.
Plugins are little softwares that make certain things happen on your wordpress blog.
Think of them as like apps on you phone. Your phone is the place where everything is stored (Wordpress) and the apps (plugins) are what make certain things happen like send an email.
In this case these plugins will do things like communicate with ActiveCampaign, Google, more.
LESSON #3
Yoast SEO Plugin
This is one of the main reasons we will be using Wordpress for your blog over any other platform. Search Engine Optimization is what makes people be able to find you on the enormous internet.
This plugin will tell you when your blog posts are optimized to Google and other search engines liking.
This plugin is free and extremely powerful!
LESSON #4
ActiveCampaign Plugin
This plugin lets your Wordpress site communicate with ActiveCampaign.
LESSON #5
Optin Monster Plugin
This plugin lets you collect leads and create pop-ups inside your blog posts. We will be spending most of today setting up your Optin Monster campaigns and linking them to your other softwares.

Creating Your First Optin Monster Campaign
- Campaigns for each Category (Course)
- Desktop Version
- Mobile Version
WRAPPING UP DAY 13
Repeat!
Today we setup Optin Monster. All of your campaigns do not have to be set up today and probably will not be. That's okay! You can come back to this lesson each time you need to set up a new campaign / funnel. You probably do not know right now what you even want them to look like or what you want to give away as your freebies. Don't panic! That is normal. We will discuss these things in more detail later on in the course.
The main goal today was just to get WP set up and the plugins installed.
Now we can head on over to Day 14 and actually create some blog posts...
