If you are a business owner looking forward to having a website or someone who is still not using WordPress, God knows why, check out these reasons why WordPress is the best and why you should start using it ASAP!
SEO Friendly
The very first concern for any developer and website owner is to make the website as SEO friendly as possible. Algorithms change quite often and it has become extremely hard, not impossible, for SEO specialists to keep up with these changes and deliver results. In order for your website to be ranked by Google it should meet a certain number of predefined parameters that render it SEO friendly. The more parameters a website fulfils the more SEO friendly it is in Google’s eyes and the better are its chances of getting ranked higher. WordPress handles all the SEO responsibilities that a content management system (CMS) should fulfil and even offers a number of different plugins to improve your website’s SEO ranking.
Extremely Easy To Use
WordPress at first appears quite intimidating to an untrained eye especially with most of its features available on the dashboard. However it is probably the easiest to setup, manage and update even for someone who is not an internet savvy and does not know coding at all. All you need is a computer system and an internet connection to get your website up and running. How cheaper could it get? Begin with a free plan that allows you to customize your website to a great extent and if you want you can always shift to a paid domain and enjoy your own .com website. If you have work load you can also outsource WordPress management.
Amazing For Both Blogs and Websites
It all began for blogs really in 2003. WordPress was the go-to CMS for bloggers for it’s easy to use features, amazing layout, extreme user-friendliness, availability of thousands of professional themes and the overall clean and professional look it gave to their blogs. However, it has become equally amazing and useful for websites as well.

You can always run a blog alone over it if that is what you desire. The options are always open with WordPress.
