  Love the potential, but overwhelmed by the choices and options. Is there a means to reach out to a WordPress guru in the (geo or virtual) area to ‘sit at the feet of a master’ and get a hand hold intro? Will trade good karma – we make solar flashlights for the developing world, actual flashlights or a tutorial fee? Thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Please use the step by step tutorial prepared by Staff linked to on the bottom of your Admin page http://learn. wordpress.com and the support documentation also linked there and found here http://en.support.wordpress.com Also note there are few Staff and millions of bloggers. There is no hand holding support provided by Volunteers. For that kind of support you will have to hire someone.

  thanks – no problem from my view on hiring someone – is there a list of folks who do this? (saw your blog when doing the research – good stuff). I am not totally inane, just learn better via a hands-on approach
