WordPress Web Design

WordPress is an open-source content management system (CMS). It’s a software used to create and manage website content, and it’s freely available to modify and distribute.

Though it started out as a blogging platform, today you can make any type of website on WordPress. That includes business websites, e-commerce stores, blogs, portfolios, membership sites, e-learning websites, social networks, forums, and more.

WordPress is so popular, and has such a strong community of developers that support it, so there are plugins and integrations for almost anything you can think of. Since all the code is open and editable, you can always use a programmer to create something custom just for you.

WordPress is one of the safest content management systems around. It even powers the whitehouse.gov website. There are always new updates and security patches coming out, and as long as you keep your software up to date, your website will be as secure as possible.

Unlike some of its competitors (like Squarespace and Shopify), you own your website and your content. You have full control of your website and you can customize anything, including being able to freely optimize it for Search Engine Optimization (SEO). Since WordPress is installed on your own host, you aren’t dependent on another business to keep your site functional, and you can move it to another hosting provider whenever you want.
