It’s no secret we LOVE Expression Engine. (EE) It’s not only our CMS of choice for powering this site, but I personally promo it to the majority of my clients. Unfortunately, the $150 pricetag for personal blog users turned a lot of people off who might otherwise really love the system.
Pmachine changed all that today with an announcement that, in addition to a new release to version 1.4 of the software, they are now offering a free version of Expression Engine for personal use called EE Core. While it has limitations that the full personal version does not, more bloggers can now use this fantastic system.
This is great news for the myriad personal bloggers out there who can benefit from a system this is flexible, highly user-friendly and doesn’t involve insane amounts of time waiting for a rebuild after a change is made to the blog. In addition to offering a free, “Core” version of EE, Pmachine also reduced the price on its fully-featured personal copy from $149 to $99.
If you’d like to learn about how switching to EE can make your blogging life easier and give you much more site management flexibility--whether you’re a personal blogger or commercial user--please contact us for more information.
