Why WordPress

WordPress is, by far, the most popular open source Content Management System (CMS). It’s used by approximately 75 million websites. 

WordPress is free to install, deploy, and upgrade. 

There are more than 50,000 WordPress plugins (often free), such as slideshows, contact forms, SEO optimization, etc.

WordPress is popular because it meets the demands of many users with its flexible framework, which allows designers and developers to create and modify layouts and applications.

Before WordPress became a popular CMS for website development, it was developed for non-tech savvy bloggers. So, most of the user-interface components are easy to use, and there are written and recorded manuals available for easily learning how to use WordPress functions. While I can handle all the complexities of setting up and customizing your website; all you have to do is to update the content on pages, posts, widgets, etc, if you choose to maintain your on site.

The advantage of having WordPress, is that you don’t get locked down by a static website or proprietary CMS that can only be maintained and upgraded by your web developer at additional costs.
