While it’s easy to say, “Why NOT WordPress?” I know you want something more concrete.

In a super small nutshell, here’s why you should consider moving your current site to WordPress, or starting your next one there:

1. It’s not just for blogging

That’s how WordPress started out. But over the last few years, its community of expert programmers, coders, and designers have turned it into a force to be reckoned with. Now you can have a web site and blog in the same place – no leaving a site to go to another service, log in, and manage things over there.

2. SEO (Search Engine Optimization)

Google loves WordPress. WordPress has over 50,000,000 users now, including many national brands who use it to power their web sites.

Just about everything involved is point and click. In fact, WordPress acts more like a word-processor than most word processors.

3. Everything’s on one page

That means everything you need to access to run your site day-to-day is right there in your ‘dashboard’. So adding new pages, hiding others, scheduling still more to publish at a later date and time is as easy as opening a browser.

4. Thousands of themes to start with

You might not even have to customize one, depending on your taste. But if you wanted to, the sky is the limit. Best of all, hundreds of WordPress themes are a reflection of web design gone right – not the typical ‘canned template’ that gives you no other options.

5. Functionality that will make you cry with joy

Every day new plugins and functionality features are released. With a few clicks you could be allowing site visitors to book an appointment with you online; display your photography portfolio, sign people up for your newsletter, display your latest tweets, distribute your newest podcast, even let people listen to your talk radio show – all without leaving the page or going downtown to meet with a formal firm to discuss it. Get in, play around, if you don’t like it – click a button to take it away.
