Simple, easy to manage websites and blogs
For a simple blog or website, you may want to look no further than the increasingly popular WordPress platform.
Quick and simple to set up, and user-friendly, Wordpress is going from strength to strength. Boasting a large community of developers that write and maintain themes and plugins that allow for easy, out-of-the-box functionality; it's an excellent choice for small organisations looking for minimal design and development work, or for larger organisations, often when looking to develop microsites for specific campaigns. Time Magazine, Google, Facebook, Sony, Disney, LinkedIn, The New York Times, CNN, eBay, and more use Wordpress to power some of their websites
Wordpress has evolved from being purely a blogging platform to being much more and, whilst it may not come with the flexibility (and extendability) of a Drupal build, it is possible to create stylish and functional websites and blogs.
Being open source, the Wordpress software itself is free. Many of the themes and plugins used to extend it are also free (although there is also a large market for paid add-ons).
Wordpress is known for being:
- Easy to use and learn (even for non-techies!)
- Easy to manage and update
- Search engine friendly
- Extendable
