Teaching Your Clients How to Use WordPressNile Flores
You’ve probably seen it happen- someone complains because they just got a website, but they don’t know how to use it. Their designer or developer or project manager just left them high and dry without some type of direction or documentation.

How do you figure it into your project’s scope? If you don’t like teaching them, what can you do to make sure your relationship with your client ends on a good note because you were diligent to give them the tools they need to continue on their own?
I’ll be going over strategies to help you put together a plan on teaching your clients how to use WordPress. Let’s decrease the frustration together and allow your clients to become enthusiastic WordPress users that are making money.

Namecheap VS Godaddy (Prices, Benefits and Disadvantages)
http://www.alekstanojevic.com/namechep-vs-godaddy/ Namecheap VS GoDaddy (Prices, Benefits and Disadvantages)
I’ve used GoDaddy.com as my domain registrar for a year. This was mostly due to the fact that I knew of nothing else. It wasn’t until I learned about other domain registrars and the benefits of each did I start to realize how much I was missing out by sticking with GoDaddy. After searching out many domain registrars, I have come to the conclusion that Namecheap.com is the best choice for me, and I have chosen to do my entire domain purchasing through them.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
3. Three Elements of a Web Site Domain name also known as a web address, such as example.com Web host where your site files will be served to the world Talent to build your web site, keep content updated, maintain the pages and learn how to continually keep it modern
4. Step 1: Get a domain name Find a domain name registrar: GoDaddy.com Affordable, but watch out for “add ons” during checkout Network Solutions.com Been around a long time, but expensive 1and1.com Cheap, decent, but somewhat clunky interface Smallbusiness.yahoo.com/domains Reliable and affordable
5. Step 1: Get a domain name .com names are harder to get .net and .org are easier .org is good for non-profits .us and .info aren’t bad either Avoid hyphenated names if possible Buy the most years at a time you can afford Once your domain is purchased, figure out how to update your nameservers
7. Step 2: Find a good web host You get what you pay for (typically) Expect to pay between $10 to $20 per month Look for uptime of 97% or greater (nobody gets 100%) A good control panel helps Should also support PHP and MySQL Should provide basic features (FTP, e-mail and databases) without additional fees Recommend keeping your domain registrar separate from your web host
8. Step 2: Find a good web host Host Gator – hostgator.com Very dependable, feature-filled plans are cheap DreamHost – dreamhost.com More storage than you’ll likely ever need Media Temple – mediatemple.net Expensive, but has a great control panel
10. Get Educated You NEED to learn HTML, so you can: Fix your site when it breaks Properly use HTML on pages Use images correctly on your site Create navigation that makes sense Make pages without the need for special tools Be prepared for the future (Hint: everything is going online)
11. Get Educated Designing with Web Standards, 3rd Edition HTML, XHTML, and CSS, Sixth Edition: Visual QuickStart Guide, 6th Edition Read this first Read this second
12. Web Pages That Suck webpagesthatsuck.com Learn how NOT to do web design. Seriously. Visit this site every day. W3Schools w3schools.com An excellent, free resource for learning HTML and web design. Get Educated
13. Get the Right Tools Be cautious of using WYSIWYGs What you see is what you get Dreamweaver is the industry standard http://www.adobe.com/products/dreamweaver HTML-Kit is an excellent, free editor for Windows - http://www.htmlkit.com FileZilla is one of the best free FTP apps http://filezilla-project.org
14. Get the Right Tools You need a good image editor Adobe Photoshop is the industry standard http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/photoshop Adobe Photoshop Elements is an excellent, cheaper alternative http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshopelwin GIMP is a solid, free option http://www.gimp.org
15. Helpful Hints Avoid varying alignments of text Don’t be too “busy” Think about content “above the fold” Know your visitors: preferred browser? screen resolution? connection speed? Don’t get crazy with colors “Boring” isn’t always bad Keep your content updated Google Analytics Google.com/analytics
