WordPress Blog and Website Creation

WordPress is becoming an increasingly popular tool for creating a website quickly without needing specialist knowledge.

WordPress is a content management system (CMS) which means you store your website content in a database from which it's retrieved, and displayed within a web page template when visitors access your site. These templates are more commonly known as themes which is one of the joys of WordPress - enabling you to edit the theme or install one of thousands which are readily available. So many WordPress themes are available that there's bound to be one suitable for your business our personal needs. More can be found via Google, including sophisticated and professional paid-for themes that can cost only a few pounds.

Why choose WordPress ?

One of the principle advantages of WordPress is that it places you in control. Unlike remote-hosted scripts such as Blogger and LiveJournal, you can host WordPress on our shared server network with the domain name of your choice. Installation is very simple and just choosing the default theme will ensure that you get your site up and running in no time. Also, pages in Wordpress are generated on the fly whenever a page is requested, so you do not have multiple archive pages clogging up your web space. Waiting for pages to rebuild is a thing of the past because template changes are made in scant seconds.

WordPress is built following W3C standards for XHTML and CSS, ensuring that your site is more easily rendered across standards-compliant browsers. Aggregator support is built-in with a number of standard RSS configurations already done for you, as well as Atom. Following standards makes your WordPress site easier to manage, increases its longevity for future Internet technology adoption, and helps to give your site the widest audience possible.
