WordPress is software used by millions of people to create websites. WordPress is an open source project, which means hundreds of people all over the world have been working on it over the past 7 years and continue to upgrade and improve it. We feel great using it knowing that it’s an excellent product, with a huge support community, that it’s open source, and that it’s likely to be around for a long time.
WordPress is written in PHP, uses a MySQL database, and we host it on a Linux server – all open-source software as well.
But isn’t WordPress only for blogs? you might ask. Good question! Straight “out of the box”, a WordPress site prominently features a blog (a space where frequent web-journal entries appear), and many of its features are blog-centered. But WordPress is also perfect for non-blog sites; with a few tweaks, it becomes a regular website.
And what if I want a blog site? Another good question, but the answer is easy: just say the word and we will set up your site to feature a blog.
WordPress is a fantastic basis for a website. The availability of themes and many optional plugins and widgets makes it really powerful and a lot of fun to work with.
By the way – you’re soaking in it! (This site itself runs on WordPress.)
