"Simon Hillier is great at helping writers get a handle on the web and understand how it differs from print - from how to write articles for a web audience to writing techniques that make websites more search engine friendly. I recommend him to any organisation wanting web training for their employees and/or members." |

The advice on how to structure articles for the web, and the differences between magazine and web readers, was excellent.
