WordPress website – Ever since its release in 2003, WordPress has shaken the website development industry from its base. It supports more than 60 Million (Mn) websites and roughly 30% of top 10 Mn websites are WordPress based. You can find a lot of plugins and themes for free and pay for almost all kind of functionalities. This allows a normal user to develop the website himself without knowing much of coding. When it comes to simply a blog, WordPress is the best of all by a huge margin. Simply set up the structure and pattern and get to write your blogs.
Every website has a blog page inadvertently and that is where WordPress comes into the picture. The picture will be clear by the end of the article. Before that let us look at some of its strong points to get you started:
WordPress has a nice robust platform that allows you to create new pages and blog articles. You can switch between themes and play around with customization. You have functionalities like comments approval and rejection, pagination, choosing different pages for landing and blog and much more. All of these requires a lot of effort to hand code and is available for free through WordPress.
Through WordPress user tab, you can also assign roles such as editor, contributor, SEO editor etc to different people. More information on roles is available on WordPress codex website which is a repository for all information and documentation related to WordPress.
A set of plugins is available to help you add extra bits of code that you do not want to code. Do not go full blast in using these Plugins as they make the website heavy and the page load speed increases by a good amount. Instead, select only the ones that you really need. Plugins like the contact form that you can either code or get it done and do not need to be changed on regular basis can be avoided.
One plugin that you really need to have is Yoast SEO which is a good life saver for SEO of your website. Let’s look at some of its features:
