In the world of blogging, one name stands above them all: WordPress. The blogging giant is now responsible for powering almost one-third<\/a> of all websites!<\/p>\n

But does that mean it’s worth using for your blog? Absolutely, and we have five great reasons to prove it!<\/p>\n

Keep reading as we explore five key reasons why you should still blog through WordPress.<\/p>\n

1. It’s Free<\/h2>\n

There are tons of blogging platforms and website builders out there. However, most will charge you an arm and a leg for even the most basic of features.<\/p>\n

With that said, it’s entirely possible to create a blog using WordPress without spending a penny.<\/p>\n

WordPress is split into two sections: WordPress.com and WordPress.org<\/a>. Both function in similar ways, but only the former includes free hosting. WordPress.com hosting is perfect for those who want to focus on content creation instead of site management.<\/p>\n

2. It’s Easy to Use<\/h2>\n

Creating your own website or blog is typically a time-consuming and technically demanding process. In most instances, you’ll have to know at least basic coding to get your site up and running.<\/p>\n

That’s not the case with WordPress.<\/p>\n

WordPress does the heavy lifting for you. All you have to do is pick your themes and widgets, then populate your website with great content.<\/p>\n

3. Customization<\/h2>\n

Your website deserves a unique look. While free themes are a great place to start and can certainly make your blog look great, you might find yourself wanting to further customize your site.<\/p>\n

Not to worry, as plenty of web development companies can tweak your WordPress site to give your .website<\/a> the exact look you’re after. Some can even create specialized widgets tailor-made for your site.<\/p>\n

4. Automatic Updates<\/h2>\n

Getting your site online is only the beginning. Once your site is live, you’ll have to make sure your site’s software is up to date. Otherwise, you may leave yourself vulnerable to a cyberattack.<\/p>\n

But with WordPress, you don’t have to worry about a thing — even updating your widgets!<\/p>\n

WordPress.com includes automatic updates at no additional charge. That way, you can keep yourself and your readers safe without stressing over updates or relying on wonky code.<\/p>\n

5. Quality Analytics<\/h2>\n

Building a blog is exciting work. Once you start to populate your site with fresh, fun content, you’re sure to see readers from across the globe visit your blog. And thanks to WordPress’ built-in analytics, you can stay up to date on it all!<\/p>\n

The included analytics feature is surprisingly in-depth, providing important info on how many visitors you receive, where your visitors live, and how you can better reach them by posting at certain times.<\/p>\n

It’s more than enough to help you tailor your content for your audience.<\/p>\n

Why You Should Still Blog With WordPress<\/h2>\n

After careful consideration, it’s clear that there’s good reason to still blog with WordPress. It’s user-friendly, easy to keep up to date, fun to manage, and of course, it’s free!<\/p>\n

Are you thinking of starting a blog? Then make sure to check back for more great tips to help you maximize your online space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
