Every business needs a website. But historically, to build a website, you either needed to know how to code a website, or hire someone who did. But with the advent of free, open source internet publishing tools like WordPress, you don’t HAVE to know how to code. Though it started out as a blogging platform, WordPress is now a very capable online publishing tool and content management system that you can use to build your entire site with – not just a blog. So, why is this good news for you? You can create a website and update its content on your own without having to know HTML. You can easily create new pages or edit existing pages using a simple text editor.

WordPress has become a powerful and popular web publishing platform. There’s tons of great information on the web about it. I’ll be blogging fairly regularly about WordPress topics, so I’ve got a category devoted to all things WordPress. Check out my latest WordPress posts.
