5 Reasons You Should Use Wordpress

By Neil Bergh

The five best reasons why you should use wordpress

I have started many blogs and I always seem to return to wordpress after trying something else. And here are the five reasons why I think wordpress is the best blogscript today.

1. The plugins.

Wordpress has so many plugins that you can download for free. The installation is very easy just upload the plugin and activate it om your site. Whatever you need, you can be sure that there is some plugin that can help you.

2. The Themes.

Most people want to customize their blog. There are literally thousands of different themes out there with one column, two columns, pink or black whatever you want.

3. The possibility to autoping

Many scripts probably have this possibility, but if you use some of the free bloghosts you probably have to ping yourself after each post. It just saves time and makes your life easier.

4. Trackback

I like the trackback feature. If I link to a post in another blog that use wordpress, wordpress will automatically make a comment in the post I linked to.

5. The overall simplicity

Wordpress is extremely user friendly. If you use cpanel you can install wordpress by just one click at your site. After that you are pretty much ready to go if you don't care about changing themes. You don't have to know anything about computers to set up a wordpress blog. When it's installed you just log in to your wordpress panel which also is extremely easy to use.
