Wordpress is one of the world's most famous CMS systeem. and is used by over 60 million websites. Since they started as a blogging platform, they have evolved into a giant that offers everything you need to have a well-functioning website. Millions of people around the world use Wordpress for their websites and blogs, and many web hosting companies offer Wordpress instead of having their own CMS (content management system).
The strength (but also the weakness) of wordpress is that there are thousands of plugins and extensions that can be integrated with your wordpress page.
Now you may be wondering what a plugin is? In short, there are useful additional features you can add to your website to get it the way you need it. You may need a calendar on your website. Then you can choose from a wide variety of calendar pluggins.
That is, Wordpress can offer you pretty much everything you need of additional features.
Wordpress is very popular because of all the possibilities one has to get a great and functional website. It is also relatively safe to create your website in Wordpress, as most web designers can take over if you want to change your web designer.
Running a Wordpress website can be demanding and can be frustrating and difficult at times. Plugins are constantly updated, and the danger of one of them suddenly not working with the others anymore can produce undesirable results and lead to hours of debugging. So if you use a lot of plugins, you should regularly check if something needs to be updated and that everything is working properly.
Getting help quickly and when you need it is important if your website is published, so you don't lose customers because something doesn't work.
Most plugins have some support but not all, which can present problems when something does not work. When using multiple plugins, it can sometimes also be difficult to determine which plugin is causing the problem, and therefore also whom to contact for help. So choosing plugins wisely can save you some frustration. Check out what kind of support they offer for both the free version and the paid version. Also check if support consists of a number of documents on a FAQ page, or if you can easily send them an email to get help from a real person. Occasionally, it may pay to upgrade to a paid version to get the necessary help.
