There are simpler platforms, but most don’t offer the functionality that WordPress does. And there are a few platforms that are equally robust, but they’re difficult to use for beginners. So, let’s talk about the benefits of WordPress for, not just your business blog, but your company’s entire website and what makes it the best and most popular platform on the internet.

What is WordPress?
When you hear the name WordPress, you probably think blogging, but it can do so much more. It’s a free and open-source content management system. This means once you have your domain and hosting space, you can build your website yourself, and then later add blog articles if you want.
Here are 6 reasons why WordPress is your best choice for your business’s website;

It’s free
WordPress itself is 100% free, no strings attached. The one catch is that you need to host WordPress somewhere. There are two options: Self-hosted, where you take care of the hosting costs and maintenance/security responsibilities. Or managed hosting, where you pay someone else to take care of the hosting and much of the maintenance and security for you

Plenty of simple designs to choose from
Choosing a theme may be the hardest part of setting up your blog because there are literally thousands of themes you could use. The theme is the outer layer of your website — the face, the façade, the style, the part that makes it look pretty.

Creating content is fast and straightforward
Because all the design work is already done and pre-installed, and the beautifully themed page or post was created as soon as you clicked the mouse in the previous sentence.

Updates are easy
You can update your plugins, theme, and even WordPress itself in a matter of seconds. You can install security updates and change your theme without losing a single picture or blog post. And it didn’t cost you 1 hour of your web designer’s time to do it.

There is a plugin for everything
There are over 58,000 plugins on WordPress.org, and they can make your WordPress site do anything. Need help with your security, SEO, audio and video, or even checking your word count and usage on all your blog articles? There’s a plugin for that.
Help is all around

Because WordPress is an open-source platform with people all over the world contributing to it and making it better, there are numerous tutorials and videos about how to use it and the documentation is extensive. Best of all, you can even access the WordPress community forums to post specific questions or search for answers.

Once you try it, you’ll quickly understand why WordPress is so popular. So, no matter what your business is or what you need your website to do, you can do it with WordPress. There are plenty of people already doing it, and you can get the help you need to make your own website a reality.
