Why Choose WordPress as Your Blogging Platform
The word “blogging” has been used so often that many people (especially the ones who have not “blogged” yet) will find it confusing. We will refer to a blog simply as a website (a souped-up website that is actually a content management system).
I would consider only two choices for a blogging platform. These are free and hosted by them. They are Blogger via Blogspot (which is owned by Google) and also Wordpress.com. I highly recommend setting up a free blog through both of these portals. Do it now.
Your URL address will be “whateveryouchoose.blogspot.com” or “whateveryouchoose.wordpress.com”
At the same time, you also need to set up a self-hosted blog. This means you control the domain name and everything else you can possibly desire.
Here are the reasons why choosing WordPress is my main choice for a blogging platform.
1. I have received buyer and seller prospects strictly from blogging for real estate business.
2. It’s the simplest blogging software. Very easy to install, configure and easy to work on.
3. It’s got the best support team in the form of thousands of volunteers, who dedicate their time and energy in helping the users of WordPress. You can get support from the WordPress IRC channel & WordPress forum quite easily.
4. It’s got great help section too and mostly answers all the queries. I’ll even say that it’s one of best documentation you’ll ever see of any software on the internet.
5. There are many blogs which write dedicatedly about WordPress and even extend their hands to help you with any issues with WordPress.
6. It’s pretty extendable with the help of thousands and thousands of themes and plugins available for free.
7. You can use it to create static websites too.
8. It’s SEO friendly. The structure is easily done for you to be successful on gaining top search engine results for Google.
9. Gets updated frequently, thus ensuring that any security hole gets fixed pretty fast and ensures that your website/blog isn’t part of the targets of the hackers.
