WordPress has dominated the content management system market since its inception to build dynamic and high performance websites. It is the most popular CMS for online marketing and blogging as well. In addition, it is used to build Promotional, Branding & design, Forums & interactivity, Resource databases, News & events sites, and so on. It is so popular that people choose WordPress instinctively without a second thought, that is, they usually never search or survey for the CMS owing to certain specialities as follows:
- It is an open source platform based on PHP and MYSQL.
- It has a plug-in architecture and a template system.
- It was established for a clear, well-defined audience.
- It does not require editing softwares because it itself is a self-contained system.
- It is driven by the bloggers and not the techies, and thus constitutes an easy usage for all.
- It was designed to meet the needs of the people to communicate digitally and not essentially technical. Hence one need not read through a long manual book to learn and use it.
