About the Author

Peter is a blogger, author, stay at home dad, speaker, web hosting trainer and geek (he was so excited to get an iPad that he made up a song and dance about it). He is English by birth, but currently lives in California with his wife and three children.
Peter ran a web hosting business for nine years and has been building websites for even longer than that.
He has fallen in love with WordPress (possibly a little TOO much) and doesnt understand why anyone would use anything different to build a site! His passion is to help others achieve their goals with their websites/blogs - and he believes that, with a little help, anyone can have an awesome site.
