Hi! I’m Joe Casabona.
I started my career almost 20 years ago as a freelance web developer before realizing my true passion, which is sharing my years of knowledge about website development, podcasting and course creation with other business owners, freelancers and entrepreneurs in need. I’ve been told I have a gift for breaking down concepts that scare people into bite-sized, approachable pieces of information they can implement in a matter of days.
My career trajectory includes 20+ years experience building websites, 16+ years using WordPress, 11+ years teaching at the college level, 7+ years podcasting, plus I am the author of four books, including my latest: HTML and CSS: Visual QuickStart Guide.
When I’m not creating courses for LinkedIn Learning, you can find me spending time with my family, enjoying baseball, or talking too much about Star Wars.
You can say hi over on Twitter or Instagram. I’m @jcasabona on both.

If You’re Afraid of Automattic Making $5K Websites, You Need to Change Your Approach
Recently, WordPress.com/Automattic “entered” the sub-$5,000 website market by announcing a new program, as reported by WordPress Tavern. Naturally, the reaction was mixed, but there seems to be a lot of anger that Automattic would do such a thing, which could potentially kill competition because it’s so big. Here’s the thing: If you think you’re competing with Automattic for sub-$5,000 websites, you need to change your approach.
