Why WordPress is so good.
Published on Monday, January 25th, 2010 by PeterLet me start by saying WordPress is a popular website management tool because it works…….our customers are happy because it is easy to use and it gets results.
Quick, nimble, efficient and effective
These days most companies are looking for a lower cost tactical solution. Who wants to take the best part of half a year to develop a website?
While the norm used to be long, drawn out, expensive website projects, WordPress is plesantly surprising our customers time and time again. Using WordPress to develop our websites our clients are up and running, faster, and making sales in weeks rather than months.
More than 200 million
More tha 200 million websites are maintained using WordPress, that a statistic that speaks for itself. Have a look at our article ‘Who Uses WordPress’ to get an idea of the high profile brands which user the WordPress content management system.
Three reasons
- SEO – WordPress provides good search engine optimization (SEO) right out of the box. There are a few tweaks you need to make, but there are many seo benefits that WordPress provides for free. In fact Google’s own Matt Cutts says WordPress is “made to do SEO well” in this video: Matt Cutts gives tips to small business owners.
- Content – it is easy to update content on your website without knowing HTML. Do you hate the idea of having to learn to use a complex HTML editor tool like Dreamweaver? Do you have to “ask” your webmaster every time you want to make a small change to your website? Well no longer – once WordPress is set up for you, you can easily create new pages or edit existing pages using a simple rich text editor.
- Development Times– There is a thriving ecosystem of developers creating themes and plug-ins – imagine free design themes, or the ability to extend your website with polls, contact forms, ratings or hundreds of other cool features without having to hire a web developer.
WordPress isn’t just being used because it is cheap, it is growing in favor because it works.
