Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned design professional, if you’re looking to build a website, you can’t go wrong with WordPress.
WordPress is a content management system that serves as the foundation for millions of websites today. It’s the go-to choice for anyone who wants ease of use as well as powerful functionality.
Why is it so popular? Here are just a few of the many reasons:
- It’s easy. Perhaps no other CMS platform is as intuitive and foolproof. Yet it offers a full range of functions and features that can meet even the most demanding requirements.
- No coding expertise or software required. Did we mention that it was easy? You don’t need separate coding software, and only a basic understanding of HTML will enable you to do far more than you’d expect.
- There’s always a plugin available. If you need to expand the functionality of your site—perhaps you need a contact form or want to enhance SEO further—there’s a plugin readily available online.
- Mobile-friendly. Nowadays, your site must be easily viewed and navigated on mobile platforms. WordPress has responsive design capabilities built in right from the start.
- Broad support. Because WordPress is so widely used, it has a huge number of resources available online that can provide guidance for any need. These are available from WordPress itself or from independent forums and communities.
