Some of the Wordpress projects I create are with people who have never heard of blogging or websites, though most people I encounter have basic computer literacy – some have just that. Yet they have something to say – and my intentions are to help them say it. This creates some challenges for me – since there is some basic knowledge that they need to learn and assimilate in order to make some decisions and get started with Wordpress- and I take on the responsibility of providing them with it.
I am currently involved in a project where these issues are again coming up and this time I started off by searching for some “getting started” guides to which I could refer my client as we progressed in the project. I couldn’t find any. So I hooked onto this projects and it’s needs and as we progressed I put in writing the things I wanted to say to my client. I used these posts in communicating with my client – and it really helped - instead of having to repeat myself – the client could refer back to the posts at any time.
I wrote (and hope to continue) this series in the hope that other people in the Wordpress community will benefit from it as they work to help other people create their wordpress websites.
