Why is WordPress our Go-To CMS?

Easy. It’s easy.

Easy to use, operate and teach. We have dealt with virtually every blogging and Content Management Software out there, in existence, forever. Seen them all. Virtually all of them have their individual issues, yes, even WordPress. But few are as intuitive and easy to learn.

Pros.

Obviously, easy to use. Adding content is a snap, posts, snappier,

Support

There are literally thousands of tutorials, videos, articles, forums, blogs and other informational resources to guide you through all aspects of building and maintaining a WordPress website. With a simple question to Google, you have a vast array or technical resources to help you along.

Plugins & Themes

Thousands of plugins, some bad, some good, are available with WordPress. Yes, other management systems have plugins and modules too but they likely aren’t as robust or prevalent as what is available with WP. Along with the thousands of plugins, there are thousands of themes out there. Many have their own interfaces so you can modify them without having to know any HTML or PHP.

Cons

Setup. Some themes or plugins require some setup – but that’s the case everywhere and likely won’t change – so not sure that this is really a “con” per se, but we need to fill the space…. so, if we had to choose something, this is it. Otherwise WordPress is really the top of the line software for website building and blogging available today. I wouldn’t expect it to go anywhere anytime soon but there may be a day when something better comes along – considering the amount of user participation is involved in WordPress that doesn’t seem to likely to happen in the near future.

Domain names other than .com a good idea?

Top Level Domains (TLDs), which are suffixes, are the final part of URLs. Although.com is well-known, there are more than 1,000 TLD choices available; however, not all of them are open to the general public. Prior to TLDs, IP addresses were used to visit websites, however this proved

Review: Google Chrome – StayFocusd ★★★★★

We. Love. This. Chrome extension. Warning: It’s brutal. Stayfocusd is essentially a task manager, not as in manage what task is next, but keeps you focused on your tasks at hand. It blocks websites that waste your time and keep you distracted through a time limit feature. You
