Hi, this is Dan Nickerson and welcome to the Socrates Theme. Socrates was developed by Joel Comm and myself and we've both been fortunate to make a lot of money online selling templates, creating Adsense websites, and developing ClickBank products, and we recently decided it was the perfect time to create a premium WordPress theme created by us for marketers and affiliate marketers, and anyone who wants to create a quick niche website.

So we built Socrates as a platform; it has built in monetization, it had ClickBank, it has special SEO features like all our navigation links have no follow and new window options on them. We have over 200 niche headers that you can instantly add any type of text or subtext to; we've optimized the layout for SEO. We have all kinds of cool Widget functions as well, and this is just the demo site that we currently have. And I'm going to show you a quick tutorial here on how to get setup really quickly with Socrates.

So just take a few minutes, and I'm going to show you how to create a niche site very quickly with WordPress. And you know what, I haven't even installed WordPress yet; I can do that really quick. I'm in the back end of cPanel so I'm going to scroll down to the software and services tab and I'm going to click on Fantastico Deluxe, and this is how you actually install WordPress via cPanel and if you have Host Gator or another major host this is automatically built in. I'm clicking WordPress, I'm going to click on new installation - now I'm going fast because this is a demo.

Obviously you can slow this down again if you want to watch it. I'm just going to do a little video demo directory, if you were going to put this in your primary domain you would leave this blank, and I'm going to set up a password here - admin password - and I will change this so don't try to access it after you see this video. I'll leave this blank for right now, I'm going to click on install WordPress, and then I'm going to click on finish installation, and I've now fully installed WordPress on my site, and I'm going to open this in a new window so you can see this is what it looks like right now.

I'm going to login with the information I just created, and click on login, and next thing I want to do is actually upload the Socrates Theme. So of course I've downloaded to my desktop, if you purchase the Socrates Theme you'll get a zip file because you don't have any other themes in here right now, and also if you're using WordPress 3.0 there will be a little thing that says install themes at the top of this section - you just click on that.

And now I'm going to click on upload, and I'm going to browse to my Socrates zip file which is - excuse me for one second as I go into here and I'm going to go into the latest version, and I'm going to install it. I've just actually installed Socrates; you can see it's version 2.03, this is our latest most advanced theme.

I'm going to click on the little Socrates tab here, and we have a splash page that has information and resources to help you get set up. I can go into my layout and I have all of these five different options for layouts. I'm going to choose this one right now, I'm just going to click on save, and if I want to add in a title, description, and keywords for SEO I can do that. This changes the main page of the keyword. If you have an SEO plug in it will actually overwrite this as well.

And we have built in monetization with ClickBank so let's just say I want to put in Joel's ClickBank ID, I can type in JComm right there. If I have Google analytics I can enter the analytics code right here and it will actually insert into the header which is Google's new recommended setting, and you click on save there.
