Building on the foundation of WordPress, which is used by major publications like The New Yorker and marketing organizations like Disney, Toastmost provides clubs and districts with rich multimedia publishing tools — more ways of dramatizing the value of the Toastmasters experience. The Toastmasters-specific extensions demonstrated in this workshop allow your club to manage its agenda and take advantage of digital methods of doing business, such as a web-based membership application that offers new members the option of paying online.
“This allows us to step our game to the next level of professionalism”
Carol Prahinski, Past International Director, on the value of the WordPress-powered Toastmost club website hosting service.
In this excerpt, Carol Prahinski addresses the issue of why you should consider Toastmost over free options like Free Toast Host.
Sign up at toastmost.org to try the WordPress-powered club website service. The software is also available for free if you have the skills to set up an independent website.
The new 62toast.com is hosted on Toastmost, and adding each of the videos shown above was as easy as pasting a link from YouTube into the WordPress editor.
Additional documentation is at wp4toastmasters.com, including a complete course with short video clips on each phase of the website setup process.
