Why Blogs Are the Best Solution for Content Publishing
Blogs are better than websites because they attract search engine traffic like magnets. Blogs make content updates a breeze and they transmit RSS feeds to let people and search engines know the instant new content is posted.
Beyond Blogging: Using Wordpress as a CMS
Blogs have expanded beyond their traditional purpose of being a place for online journals, to being a platform for publishing all kinds of content. Today we use blogging software like Wordpress as a Content Management System (CMS) to create websites that allow site owners to update their own content without having to learn html markup or hire a developer. Blogs can be configured with a static front page so that they resemble a more traditional website, with the blog or journal page being secondary.
Blog Customization and Services
A hosted Wordpress blog is one of the best current content-publishing options for flexibility, integration with social networks, search engine optimization, and the availability of free plugins and widgets to extend the features of the blog. Choosing the right hosting, theme, plugins, and widgets to extend your blog is more complex than it seems, and can have a major impact on the results you get from your efforts.
