Your Website Engineer

All of the episodes have great content; however, newer shows will have the most current solutions, so please keep that in mind while listening to older episodes. If you are relatively new to WordPress, go back into the archives and listen to the first six episodes. This will give you a great background on WordPress and how to prepare for your website. Then, I’d recommend listening to the most recent episode and working through the archives in reverse chronological order.
