    Hi All,

    I just posted a new article to Meta Q called “Never Fear: ExpressionEngine is here”. (Meta Q is a new webzine we created for web folks and will include a lot of content about EE and MojoMotor.)

    The article identifies and addresses ten major concerns clients have about using ExpressionEngine to manage their website, and includes a PDF version that can be shared with clients.

    Feel free to take a gander. I appreciate any feedback you have about it, what’s missing or unclear. And hopefully it’s a useful resource to some.

    Cheers!

    I was very impressed with the post and the webzine. Liked the intermixing of tips for developers as well.

    Thanks for the tips.  Our biggest issue is doing the training and the client understands it completely, then they don’t touch it for two weeks and forget it all.  Tough to overcome that one.

    How embarrassing! Thanks for the catch lebisol. I’m not actually sure how or why the original link changed, but we’ll keep better tabs on that.

    😊 I would imagine some SEO improvements from “EE” in URL to “ExpressionEngine”....those ~$#@ engineers LOL.
    Fun site, very nice use of photography so kudos to your print crew.

    Nice article. I always deliver a PDF guide to my clients when the site launches. I assume that they’ll forget most of what they learned during the training session. I make sure the guide is specific to their site and walks them through every type of task. I also offer a refresher training session 2 months after their site launches.
