by Erling McCracken on 18/02/2022

In the world of website development, WordPress is king. It is the most popular content management system (CMS), with over 60% market share. And for a good reason – it is powerful, versatile, and easy to use. This article will explore 19 reasons why you should love WordPress. Let us dive in!

Did you know that about 43.3% of all websites on the Internet use WordPress? That is a massive chunk of users worldwide. About one in every four websites that you encounter are using WordPress. That must mean WordPress is doing something right! Right?

Why Use WordPress? 19 Reasons to Love WordPress

Reason #01: WordPress Is Easy to Manage (CMS)

WordPress is a powerful CMS that makes managing your content easy. WordPress comes with various features and options that allow you to easily manage your website’s content, including a built-in editor, media library, and menus. WordPress also makes it easy to add new pages, posts, and other content to your website quickly and easily.

WordPress is based on PHP and MySQL, which are both open-source languages. As a result, it acts as a framework for your website that allows you to manage your site’s content and functions efficiently. In addition, WordPress is open-source software, which means you can use it for free, and the source code is publicly available to modify or enhance as needed.

Reason #02: WordPress Is Incredibly Extensible with Plugins

WordPress’ core functionality covers most website needs out of the box. However, WordPress is also incredibly extensible with plugins. There are tens of thousands of plugins available on the WordPress plugin directory and many more that are not listed. So, if you can think of a feature or function you need for your website, there is a good chance a WordPress plugin exists to provide it.

Reason #03: WordPress Offers an Insane Collection of Themes

WordPress Theme is a collection of WordPress templates and stylesheets used to define the appearance and display of WordPress-generated webpage content. WordPress themes are installed on WordPress websites to change their appearance or “skin”. In addition, WordPress provides you with thousands of pre-made themes for your site. These range from simple, minimal themes to more complex and feature-rich designs. You can also find WordPress themes for any website – business, portfolio, blog, eCommerce, etc.

In addition, you can find thousands of free themes at WordPress.org, with thousands more at third-party marketplaces and developers.

Reason #04: WordPress Is Multilingual

WordPress is available in over 170 languages thanks to the arduous work of WordPress translators worldwide. As a result, WordPress is a highly internationalized CMS, and you can use WordPress in your native language.

Reason #05: WordPress Is Used by Big Brands

It is true that while plenty of small websites use WordPress, you can also find many big brands using WordPress for their sites. Some examples include The New York Times’ company blog, Beyoncé’s official website, Katy Perry’s blog, and more. WordPress is not just for small websites – it can power any site you want!

Reason #06: WordPress Is Easy to Use

WordPress is an easy-to-use system that allows you to quickly build a professional-looking website without having much (or any) technical knowledge. WordPress is perfect for non-technical users who want to manage their website content without learning coding or web design.

Reason #07: WordPress Is Scalable

WordPress is a scalable platform, meaning it can manage any amount of traffic your website receives. So, whether you are starting with a small blog and expecting minimal traffic or launching a high-traffic website, WordPress can manage the load.

Reason #08: WordPress Is Secure

WordPress is one of the most secure CMSs available today. WordPress has many security features that help protect your website from attack, including built-in malware protection and automatic updates that keep your WordPress site up to date with the latest security enhancements.

WordPress is also regularly evaluated for vulnerabilities and regularly reviewed by WordPress developers to ensure no security flaws in WordPress itself. WordPress is also open-source software that allows anyone with the skills and knowledge necessary to contribute improvements or fix bugs if something goes wrong.

Reason #09: WordPress Is Open Source and Free

WordPress is an open-source project, which means anyone can contribute to the core software. This also means that you are free to use it for any purpose, modify it as you see fit, and redistribute it however you want. In addition, WordPress is licensed under the GPL, which means you can use it free without any restrictions.

Reason #11: WordPress Is SEO-Friendly

WordPress is a highly SEO-friendly platform with tons of features and settings that help you optimize your website for search engines. WordPress also has a wide variety of plugins to help you further optimize your WordPress site for SEO.

You can find WordPress support by attending Word Camps, joining WordPress meetups, or simply searching on Google to get answers to any questions that arise as you are using WordPress. WordPress also has many online resources, such as tutorials and documentation, to help you get started with WordPress.

Reason #13: WordPress Is Always Evolving

WordPress is constantly evolving and growing thanks to the arduous work of its developers. Each updated version of WordPress introduces new features and enhancements that make it even better than before. WordPress is constantly being improved, so you can always rely on it to be up-to-date and compliant with the latest web technologies.

Reason #14: WordPress is not just for websites anymore, either.

WordPress has made its REST API a massive focus lately, which opens up the door for developers to create all kinds of exciting apps based on WordPress. So from now on, you’ll be able to use all of your WordPress content in new and exciting ways.

Reason #15: WordPress Is Customizable

WordPress is highly customizable thanks to its extensive collection of themes and plugins. As a result, you can easily change any aspect of your WordPress site – from its overall design and layout to specific features and functionality. In addition, WordPress is an incredibly customizable platform, so you can make it look any way you want!

Reason #16: WordPress Is Responsive
