What is WordPress?

WordPress is a popular content management system (CMS) that allows you to create, manage, and customize websites without needing extensive coding knowledge. It powers over 40% of all websites on the internet, making it the most widely used CMS worldwide.

Key Features of WordPress:

1. Ease of Use: It offers an intuitive interface, making it accessible to beginners and experts alike.
2. Open Source: It’s free to use, and the source code is customizable, allowing developers to modify it as needed.
3. Themes and Plugins:
   • Themes: Pre-designed templates to control your website’s appearance.
   • Plugins: Add functionality (e.g., SEO tools, contact forms, e-commerce).
4. Flexible: Can be used for blogs, portfolios, business websites, e-commerce stores, forums, and more.
5. SEO-Friendly: Built with search engine optimization in mind, and additional SEO plugins are available.
6. Community Support: A large community of developers and users who contribute to its improvement and offer help.

Two Versions of WordPress:

1. WordPress.com: A hosted platform with managed services (easier but limited control).
2. WordPress.org: Self-hosted, offering full control but requiring your own hosting and domain.
