Top Five Reasons to Use WordPress for Your Small Business Web site

There are a few recommendations that we, at Wi-Phye, suggest you implement to make it even better, but WordPress is the best starting point for building your search engine optimization structure.

  2. Updates – it is easy to update content on your web site without knowing HTML. Do you really want to have to learn how to use a complex HTML editor like Dreamweaver? Do you have to “ask”, or worse yet, pay your web developer every time you want to add or change the content on your web site? With WordPress this isn’t an issue. Once we have WordPress set up, you can easily create new pages or edit existing pages using a simple on line editor.
  3. Plugins / Themes – There is a vast ecosystem of developers creating themes and plug-ins. We can easily add functionality to your web site and lower the development cost by leveraging exiting themes and plugins. There are nearly 15,000 existing plugins that have been downloaded over two million times. Imagine the ability to extend your website with polls, contact forms, image galleries or hundreds of other cool features without significantly increasing your web development budget.
  4. Support – If you do have problems, or want to add very custom features, Wi-Phye is here to help, but if you want to research an issue yourself there are literally thousands of articles about WordPress. Information is only a Google search away!
