# WordPress.com User Experience

> I’m embellishing a bit here, and experienced WordPress users may think the Admin Dashboard is obvious, but try to imagine how this process feels to someone who’s never used WordPress? How would they know that customize isn’t the website editor? How would they know they needed to find the Admin Dashboard?

My wife is always so frustrated with the authoring experience on WordPress.com and [this review reminded me of how bad it actually is](http://www.sitebuilderreport.com/reviews/wordpress/our-review).
