Why You Should Love Wordpress
By Mitchell Hislop | February 15, 2010
It is no secret that I have something similar to a love affair with the open source content management system Wordpress. I have stickers all over my laptop and notebooks, and even on a lamp in the office.
People often ask me why I love it so much, or why they should use it themselves. I have finally written down my answer:
Some of the things I love about Wordpress:
- Ease of use:
- Wordpress has a very nice back-end, which allows anyone to be able to add or edit content site-wide.
- It is also very easy to add functionality using plug-ins.
- Design is handled by themes, allowing you to either use one you like or create/modify an existing one.
- Reliability:
- Wordpress is one of the top content management systems, and has a vibrant community around it. This allows it to be updated constantly, making sure there are no bugs.
- It is also really easy to get support for because of this community.
- Power:
- Wordpress can handle anything from a simple one page blog to a massive website, and anything from no traffic to 100,000 unique visits a day.
- Wordpress can be completely customized, allowing people of every level of expertise to leverage it
Why you should use Wordpress:
- It’s free
- It’s easy
- It’s powerful
- It’s supported
- The community behind it is there for you
- Any business can benefit from having a blog.
