Why Use WordPress?
Are you interested in starting your own blog? Are you using a blogging platform right now and they’re just not happy with that? Well, I’ve great news. I have been blogging for quite some time and have used pretty much every blogging platform out there.
I have finally came to realize that there is no other blogging platform that is comparable to WordPress in my opinion.
WordPress is a far superior blogging platform and there are quite a few reasons why. I will list just a few in order to keep this article relatively short period
The Ease-Of-Use
WordPress by nature is just very easy to use. When it comes to writing down your thoughts and categorizing them in an easy to use and read format WordPress nails it.
The control panel that WordPress uses is super simple. You login, click a couple buttons, start writing and then click another button in your post is ready to be read by the world. Does it get any easier?
Search Engine Friendly
WordPress comes out of the box pretty search engine friendly. Although, you do need to change a few things after you install the blog.
The first, in my opinion, would be the permalink structure. Unfortunately, when you first set up your blog the permalink structure is not very pretty. But luckily that is easily corrected. Now, thepermalinkstructure is just a sample of what you can do with the default WordPress platform.
The Plug-Ins
Oh the plug-ins. You definitely cannot forget the plug-ins when it comes to WordPress. The wide range of plug-ins that are offered for WordPress for absolutely free is astonishing. You can find a WordPress plug-in to do pretty much anything you want.
Especially optimize the blog for search engine performance. A wide range of plug-ins that are available will make your blog a powerhouse when it comes to dominate in the search engines.
The Themes
WordPress has thousands of themes that are available. You can pretty much find a theme for any niche you can possibly imagine. The themes are well coded and very sharp.
You can find many styles of themes that will fit your personal needs, and most likely you will find it for free.
Anyway, that is just the few small reasons why I choose WordPress over the other blogging platforms. I could go on and on for hours about why you should use WordPress, but unfortunately I am limited to the space I can use here today.
But, knows this… WordPress is the number one blogging platform out there right now. That is my opinion at the time of this writing.
