THE DASHBOARD
The Dashboard is the main hub of the Wordpress
that users can use to access other parts of the word
blog.
The main idea of the dashboard is to give you a
place where you can get an at-a-glance overview of
what’s happening with your blog. You can catch up
on news, view your draft posts, see who’s linking to
you or how popular your content’s been, quickly put
out a no-frills post, or check out and moderate your
latest comments.
WELCOME TO WIDGETS
The next tool up on our list is what we commonly
call Widgets. Widgets are built in tools usually
created by a third person developer that Wordpress
collectively utilizes.
Some of the various Widgets may include polls and
data charts or even links to parts of your wordpress.
LINKING
A major part of the basic setup creating your
website, are links. Links are HTTP Url Addresses
that take you to another part of a site or even to a
new website.
Links are common in your Wordpress and should
be used frequently.
They are also editable and easily injected via the
admin dashboard.
AKISMET
The AKISMET counter function of your Wordpress
is an integrated tool used to count spam posts.
It is highly useful in monitoring your Wordpress’s
traffic.
SITE STATS

an integrated monitoring system.

integrated import export function. Using this
function allows the administrator to import videos,
images, and gifs to the Wordpress.
