		<description>I operated websites for many years, struggled with learning .html, Adobe GoLive then Dreamweaver, etc., etc.  Never a day went by when I did not have more on my plate than time in the day. Now, with Wordpress, I make more money, have more time and have fun operating my websites. Thank GOD for Wordpress!</description>

		<description>Hi, I&#039;d like to know if I can create a complex static page with WordPress without having to do much coding by using Web authoring software such as Dreamweaver. Or is there a way of pasting code from an already designed page (such as one using Homestead or Concrete5) into WordPress?</description>

		<description>Hi Janet,
You really hit on one of the big issues - the ability for the business owner to make their own updates to the site. 

As for your complex page layouts question - a WordPress theme is made up of CSS, HTML and PHP code. You have total control over the layout and can set up custom page templates for complex layouts. 

It takes a little getting used to how WordPress and the Theme you are using structures things, but you can do pretty much anything you want from a design perspective, especially if you are already familiar with CSS and HTML.</description>

		<description>Thank-you for sharing your insights regarding using wordpress for business sites.  I&#039;m used to building small business websites with Xhtml, CSS etc, but those sites lack the capability for the business owner to make updates themselves.  Which is why I&#039;m looking at moving over to Wordpress.  Also, the combination of blog and static pages is appealing.  

But what I&#039;m not sure about, is how to achieve fairly complex page layouts for the business pages - does one just have to put all the HTML into the page content area?  What about custom CSS files?

Would appreciate hearing your insights regarding these considerations.

Thanks so much.</description>

		<description>I love wordpress because it is so easy to install it and there are so many useful plugins as well as wonderful themes available for free download all over the internet. It truly is a wonderful platform to start blogging for non-techies. It makes our work super easy and we can focus on content development rather than worry about technical aspects of setting up a visually pleasing website.

So I think it is a perfect solution for small businesses. Though I haven&#039;t tried other platforms like Joomla or Drupal, and they may be good too, but I am so satisfied with wordpress that I didn&#039;t need to experiment with other platforms.</description>

		<description>Hi,I&#039;d like to make a blog with a website-like homepage that has just the 1st paragraph of a story, the story is then linked to another page that has the full article and the comments section like in a blog,but I need the home page to have no comments, just like a traditional web site, can I achieve this using your methods? how would I link to another page with the full story? and can all articles appear in their own pages or will it take too much space on the server?</description>
