Introducing Andy Henderson to our amzing line up of WordCamp Sydney 2016 speakers.

Andy has been a web developer since the early 1990’s (Yes the internet really did exist then).

He has run an SEO Agency since 2001 and has been using WordPress exclusively to build websites for more than 8 years.

In 2008 Andy created a training business called In a Day which focuses on teaching complete beginners how to create and manage their own website – using WordPress of course.

In a Day’s flagship Workshop – called “Website In a Day” – guides people through the process of creating their own website from scratch (including setting up a domain and hosting). Most beginners are initially skeptical what they could create in a single day, but are invariably shocked (thanks to WordPress and a little guidance) what they can actually achieve.

Andy runs a number of Meetup Groups in Brisbane (with thousands of members) about Photography, SEO and running a small business.

What’s his talk? A Website in a day – can an absolute beginner really build a WordPress website in a single day ?
