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 Rotterdam – 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.

I’ve used A2 Hosting for about 6 months. I’m 5* satisfied. The server is quick and reliable. My web load speeds have gone from slug to rocket when I switched from a different service.The cPanel controls give plenty of hands-on tools. Huge flexibility.I’m an amateur and A2Hosting customer service answer every ticket quickly with the right solution - no dithering. Job done. Very pleased with A2 Hosting. Highly recommended.
Clear and helpful answers!

I've been getting malicious code mentions on my website for 10 days now, almost every day.I am able to delete them, but cannot do that on a daily basis; Result, my website was taken offline.Daniel was very supportive and friendly, but was not able to solve my problem. 4**** for Daniel, * for the problem solving unfortunately.
Helpful Team - Wonderful Service!

I recently switched our site to Site Ground for our hosting. I know enough about our site to get by, but if something really breaks, I don't always know where to start to fix it. We have been doing some major updates, and the team at Site Ground has been AMAZING! They have a large catalog of ways to fix things. If that doesn't find a fruitful solution, the team is more than happy to help. Not only can they help find the problem, but they also fix it / tell me how to fix it, and then they stay on the chat until the problem is resolved. I have used this service now three times, and every single time the team has been kind, helpful, and has resolved my problems. I couldn't recommend SiteGround more!

iPage

If you’re thinking of iPage you haven’t done your homework…

If you’re thinking of iPage, you haven’t done your homework1. It’s not cheap. It’s expensive (around 5X) after the first year and then you really can’t move your site without losing your search ranking.2. It uses call centres mostly in the Philippines where language and skills are poor. I have had 2 calls recently that I have had to terminate because I couldn’t hear the operator due to loud dog barking and children screaming noise. 3. There is no vertical management of any problems. The “technician” who answers your call has no access (other than via email) to support so you won’t get your problem resolved during the call (or ver through follow up in my experience). 4. The accounts department has no knowledge of the products they are selling, only of how to activate a charge. If you enquire about a charge, they repeat what the charge was but not what for. 5. Do not use them for SEO. They are easily double the cost of any competitors and offer a very poor product. They count on baffling you (to impress) and they warn you that you will be unable to monitor/see their performance/outcomes, even during the first call. Then they schedule appointments at long intervals so that their inactivity/poor performance goes undetected. So far, 60% of my scheduled sessions have been abandoned because my technician didn’t turn up to work. Someone else calls and they freely admit they have no idea what to do. 6. Beyond the telephone options/technicians, there is no management access to resolve problems. They have no access either. They are schooled in formulaic responses but not more.I looked on their UK reviews and thought the glowing stuff might lack authenticity!!!If you post a neg review you get a robo response (see below).

Knowledgable, courteous, easy to work with. I absolutely love the customer service online chat. They are so helpful from buying domains, setting up hosting, getting email accounts, adjusting the necessary system requirements. I have many domains with Domain.com and I use them also for hosting as well.
