The fastest way to have an online presence

What differentiates WordPress.com from other similar products?

I am a web programmer and in my years of career I have been able to help many companies in the creation and development of their websites and without a doubt, WordPress is the best tool to achieve quickly and economically, a high quality website that is quickly positioned in search engines.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I really like WordPress because you don't need to be an expert programmer to create your own website, which gives me the advantage when I deliver the web pages to my clients and teach them how to manage their own website. Another great advantage of WordPress is that you can position the pages with an additional blog, since you have the option to create your articles optimized with SEO and thus achieve better reach and visualization in search engines. It has helped me a lot in the creation of online stores, as I can easily add all the inventory that is in stock.

What do you dislike most about this product?

If you want to make your website and you do not have any knowledge in the area, you can certainly do it, but the results will not look professional. Some options are limited such as templates, although some of them can be modified, as I mentioned, you must have a great knowledge of the program to be able to do it.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

My recommendation is that, if you want to have an online presence, with a software that is not expensive and easy to use, WordPress is undoubtedly the best for creating websites. If you have no knowledge in web design and creation and you have little budget, WordPress is a great option to start with your website, as long as you document well, so that the results are as expected.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Trustworthy
