SOCIETY CHANGES
The Family History Society of Arizona has made some very big changes. They have closed and consolidated their chapters, and totally redesigned their website (which looks great and is easy to navigate). You will still find events from FHSA on the calendar. You can see their new website here: https://www.fhsa.org/
DIY GENEALOGY WEBSITE
Does your society need a website makeover? Maybe you want to set up your own family genealogy website. Genealogy Website Builder’s WordPress For Genealogy Workshop begins this week. The workshop will be held on two consecutive Tuesdays, May 9 and May 16, from 7-9 pm Eastern time. You’ll learn how to build your own genealogy WordPress website in the two courses. According to GWB, “No domain name? No website? Not technical? NO PROBLEM!” The course is $24.99. Sign up soon if you’re interested so you have time to review the pre-class information. (As always, I get no commissions or anything for this – It’s just a good opportunity — I even signed up myself!) https://genealogywebsitebuilders.com/product/wordpress-for-genealogy-workshop-may-9th-16th/
