With a few exceptions, all my websites are designed around the WordPress content management system (CMS) which enables you to take control of your own website
and easily make changes to its content. WordPress helps you keep your website up-to-date
You can create new pages, rearrange the order of pages,write and format text, insert images and video clips. Links pages are easy to create.
WordPress is also a blogging tool so you can publish news articles that are automatically archived by month and visitors so your visitors can search for them. Also, your visitors can subscribe to every news item you write using a very simple technology called RSS that’s built into Internet Explorer, Outlook 2007 and many other popular software these days. That makes WordPress a great choice for running campaigns and promotions.
WordPress is very flexible
WordPress is often thought of as a blogging tool but it can do so much more than that. Take a look at how different these WordPress-based websites are from one another:
There are frequent upgrades and improvements
WordPress has a very active community of users and developers committed to its development. New editions come out regularly and as well as making security fixes they also bring new useful features and improvements. WordPress is also more accessible out-of-the-box than many CMS, although in the end it’s the quality of the individual theme that counts.
WordPress is open source
That means that any web developer can see WordPress’s underlying code and customise any part of it to their own needs. Plus when it’s installed within your website no-one can take it away from you. It’s a flexible, adaptable tool and it’s easy to find a web designers with experience of working with it.
