Terms of Service

The Gist:

WordPress powers 1/3 of all websites, which makes knowing WordPress a valuable skill for making more money.

But most WordPress experts lack the knowledge to fully unlock their earning potentialā€“it’s a different skill set.

ProfitPress closes that gap with free resources to learn new (and better) ways to make more money with WordPress.

Our business is focused on this mission and our terms of service below is our lawyer’s “legalese” description of how we do it.

Terms of Service:

The following terms and conditions govern all use of the ProfitPress.com websites and all content, services, and products available at or through the website, including, but not limited to, ProfitPress (ā€œProfitPressā€), (taken together, our ā€œServicesā€).
