From Tech Novice to WordPress Expert: A Digital Success Story

Are you hesitating to start your digital journey because technology seems overwhelming? You’re not alone. Today, we’re sharing Sarah’s inspiring transformation from a total tech novice to a successful WordPress website developer and digital entrepreneur.

Overcoming the Digital Dilemma

In 2024, Sarah faced a challenge common to many small business owners. She needed to set up a robust online presence. Yet, she had no technical background.

“Every time I tried to set up my website, I just ended up more confused. It felt as if I was trying to learn a new language,”

she recalls

This journey was fraught with frustration, especially when juggling her business needs. Yet, her participation in Mondosol’s WordPress website coaching program helped her overcome these feelings.
