What exactly is WordPress?

WordPress, at its core, is the simplest and most popular way to create your own website or blog. WordPress, in fact, powers 43.3% of all websites on the Internet. Yes, WordPress is likely to power more than one out of every four websites you visit.

WordPress is an open-source content management system licenced under the GPLv2, which means that anyone can use or modify the WordPress software for free.

A content management system (CMS) is essentially a tool that allows you to manage important aspects of your website, such as content, without having to know anything about programming.

As a result, WordPress makes website creation accessible to anyone in Perak – even those who aren’t developers.

What Types of Websites Can WordPress Produce?

WordPress was once primarily used to create blogs, rather than more traditional websites. That hasn’t been the case in a long time. You can now create any type of website with WordPress thanks to changes to the core code and WordPress’ massive ecosystem of plugins and themes.

WordPress, for example, not only powers a large number of business sites and blogs, but it is also the most popular way to create an eCommerce store! WordPress allows you to create:

Websites for businesses
Online stores
Blogs
Portfolios
Resumes
Forums
Social networking sites, membership websites…

Almost anything else you can think of…

What Is the Distinction Between WordPress.org and WordPress.com?

WordPress.org, also known as self-hosted WordPress, is the free, open-source WordPress software that you can instal on your own web host to create a completely unique website.

WordPress.com is a for-profit, subscription-based service that runs on the WordPress.org software. It’s easy to use, but you lose a lot of the flexibility that comes with self-hosted WordPress.

When most people say “WordPress,” they are referring to the self-hosted WordPress available at WordPress.org. Self-hosted WordPress.org is almost always the best option if you want to truly own your website.

To get started with self-hosted WordPress, you simply need to purchase web hosting and a domain name.

Who Invented WordPress, and How Long Has It Been in Existence?

WordPress was founded in 2003 as a stand-alone project as an offshoot of a previous project known as b2/cafelog.

Because WordPress is open-source software, it is now created by a large community of contributors. But, if we go all the way back to the beginning, Matt Mullenweg and Mike Little worked together to create WordPress.

Matt Mullenweg has largely become the face of WordPress since then. He is also the founder of Automattic, the company that operates the for-profit WordPress.com service.

Between its inception as a blog platform in 2003 and today, WordPress has had a long history…

But, suffice to say, WordPress has progressed and, thanks to its contributors and large community, has become the most popular solution for creating any type of website.

What are the benefits of using WordPress?

There are numerous reasons to use WordPress regardless of the type of website you want to build. Here are a few examples:

WordPress is a free and open source platform.

One of the most significant advantages of WordPress is that it is free, open-source software. While you must pay for hosting, you will never have to pay to use the WordPress software, which is not the case with alternatives such as Squarespace.

Aside from that, there are numerous open-source plugins and themes available to alter the appearance and functionality of your website. Speaking of which….

WordPress is adaptable.

Even if you are not a developer, you can easily modify your website thanks to the vast ecosystem of WordPress themes and plugins:

Themes primarily alter the appearance of your website.

Plugins primarily alter how your website operates. Plugins can be as simple as a contact form or as complex as creating an eCommerce store.

There are currently over 50,000 free WordPress plugins and 5,000 free WordPress themes available, as well as a plethora of premium options. That is to say, you have a lot of options! Here is a selection of the best WordPress plugins.

WordPress is simple to set up.

Do you believe you must be a computer genius to create your own website? Consider again! WordPress can be installed on your site with a few mouse clicks.

Is it possible to instal WordPress on my personal computer?

Absolutely! There are several compelling reasons why you should instal WordPress on a local computer. You are creating a new website from scratch, installing a new theme or plugin, or simply want a safe environment to experiment with your existing website without fear of breaking it.

In this case, we recommend DevKinsta, a free tool that allows you to instal WordPress on your Mac or PC.

WordPress is adaptable.

We’ve already mentioned it, but WordPress is great because it allows you to create almost any type of website. Even better, your website can evolve alongside you.

Do you want to add a forum to your current WordPress site? No worries – simply instal the bbPress plugin! Do you want to include a social network? Not to worry! Simply instal the BuddyPress plugin.

You are never confined to a single set of functions; you can always adapt and evolve.

Chat service is the best
Gene K
I received an email from Sucuri that was unclear to me. I chatted with a Siteground rep. He explained the situation and assured me there is nothing to be concerned about. Siteground's chat service is among the best - if not the best - I have had personal experience with.
Dishonest practices & terrible customer service.
Krista W
I had a terrible experience there. I don't access my website often, and apparently they found malware and shut it down. I have searched through my email and there was no notification of this. I also have everything turned on for notifications including texts. Never received a warning and the ticket they set up expires after 21 days. So when I logged in there was no information regarding the fact that my website had been down for months. The customer service rep told me it was my fault for not logging often enough. They have an obligation to put a notification on the website once you have logged in, letting me know that the site is down. I was in there setting up emails and never had a clue my website wasn't working. I was told repeatedly that it is my fault, even though the only way I could find out why my site was down was through customer service. Serious failures in communication, followed by terrible customer service. Also, watch out for sleazy sales tactics. I was told that I should use the security scan and the button says free for 3 months, but doesn't provide the cost of the service anywhere on the screen. You actually have to click to add the service and then on the bottom of the next page in small print, it tells you that you will be charged a monthly charge once the 3 months are up. This dark pattern is designed to intentionally trick customers into signing up for a monthly charge without realizing it. I asked him about why they would not provide a cost up front, and was told that it would be cluttered and it's easy to get a refund. There are so many red flags in that statement. It's never easier for someone to have to contact customer service for a refund on something they did not know they were going to be charged for. And to justify it by saying it clutters the site to add "$2.49 for month after 3 months" is absolutely untrue and shows exactly how little they care for the customer. Make no mistake, that dark pattern is designed to increase conversions by causing users to accidentally add a monthly cost to the service. They are banking on you never realizing that you signed up for it. Shame on you for taking advantage of users who are stressed due to a site being down, and not fully focused on the task. They belong on the dark patterns shaming website. As someone who is in charge of the user experience of 20 software products, this blatant disrespect for users churns my stomach.

Matthew L
I was having difficulty connecting my domain to shopify website. Shopify cited conflicts in IP address and other details beyond my scope. Shreevathsa was my chat assistant. She quickly recognized the issue I had and offered to adjust the settings. I requested she walk me through it for my own learning, and she walked me through the process, and was encouraging as I proceeded. The process took all of 5 minutes, and my domain is now being processed on Shopify. I am very pleased with Shreevathsa, she was most efficient and accommodating with me. I give her top marks.
