It's the WP minute. Let's talk about

0:05

contributing through WordPress training, education

0:07

and content. Coming right up.

0:26

Something that's been on my mind as I loosely plot

0:28

out my YouTube world domination.

0:31

Contributing to WordPress through content. I

0:34

recently interviewed mark Semanski for

0:36

an upcoming WP minute plus episode, where

0:38

we explore the opportunities to contribute

0:40

back to WordPress for air quotes,

0:43

newcomers like him. He's been

0:45

around since 2018, started his agency

0:47

around 2019. It's gonna be a fantastic conversation.

0:49

Make sure you're following the WP minute. Plus in your favorite

0:52

podcast app. Does it always

0:54

have to be contributing that is with

0:56

code, word, camps, chatting and GitHub

0:58

issues. Or can it be through content like

1:00

this? Where we support and encourage

1:02

the use of WordPress through the content we're creating.

1:05

There's a host of ways to go about creating content

1:07

to achieve this blogging, YouTube

1:10

podcasting newsletters, social. Or

1:12

a grab bag of it all like we do here. I

1:14

know I'm biased, but I do feel like if you're

1:16

consistently creating content, even if it's for

1:18

a narrow part of the WordPress space,

1:21

You're doing your part to help WordPress thrive.

1:23

And that's one of our goals. Isn't it.

1:25

So the message today is quite simple. If

1:28

you're looking for ways to give back to WordPress,

1:30

maybe start blogging again. If you want to educate

1:32

users on new ways of design development,

1:35

or simply how to WordPress. Then

1:37

YouTube could be for you. If you have strong

1:39

opinions about a topic near and dear to you

1:42

start that newsletter. Want to attract

1:44

a younger audience to WordPress hop

1:46

on Tik TOK. Lord knows I can't.

1:50

You'll be amazed with how much you can learn about

1:52

end users touching WordPress for the very first

1:54

time. So the message today is quite simple.
