Learn to Blog from an Experienced Science Communicator

Hello, I'm Sarah!

For several years, I've been blogging and writing for online platforms. As a science communicator, I've created and redesigned websites for professional associations, personal outlets and companies. I also write for, edit and maintain blogs on scientific topics and science communication.

After learning WordPress the hard way, I've decided to simplify the process for you. This way, you can focus on writing posts and sharing your expertise with the world. In this video-based course, I'll guide you through the WordPress dashboard, explain key website functions and offer ideas to create a clear, accessible website for a global audience. We'll also explore the differences between online science writing and academic writing, helping you reach your target audience and make science more comprehensible.

You can progress through the video material at your own pace, revisit videos as needed and create your blog with complete freedom. I'll continuously update the course material, ensuring you always have access to the latest tools and resources. After completing the course, you may receive a personal certificate, while I'll also remain available to address any questions or issues you encounter during the setup process.

Are you ready to share your research expertise with a global audience? I'm excited to see what you create!
