Everything that is related to WordPress really!

Well WordPress is a focus of ours, it’s the tool of our trade really. It is the content management system of choice, so under this category you will find all sorts of guides, how to’s and tricks.

So you would like to know the difference WordPress .com and .org?

WordPress.com is the hosted blog/CMS solution provided by Automattic, it’s uses the free WordPress software that is available at WordPress.org.

WordPress.org is the open source project that is the WordPress software that you and I and in fact most WordPress users use.
