The main things that drew me to dreamwidth were the subscribe/access options, the cross-poster, and the ability to import my other journals. So links to the FAQ about these features or even a step-by-step with screencaps run through might be good.
There is also the easy admin console way to recreate your subscriptions on other journals using the "manage_circle" command, provided people kept the same username when the moved over here, however the tutorial that I used to do so when I first moved over here seems to have vanished with a deleted livejournal account. It's not difficult to figure it out if you have any experience using the admin console, but it certainly helped me feel like I was settling in quickly when I suddenly had a reading page full of entries.
One note about importing journals, if you have multiple journals, the importer treats each mirrored entry in a separate journal as a different entry (which it obviously should but it's one of those things that is only obvious after the fact), so if you are importing multiple journals (say you have comments on the mirrored journalfen entry but not on the original livejournal entry) you need to be prepared to do a lot of deleting and wading through older entries if you want to keep only one copy of each entry. Maybe add a note of caution so people know about a potential time suck.
I'd also point people towards the "follow friday" tag which is a great way to find new communities and subscriptions.
