Wordpress is brilliant, if you aren’t already using it you should seriously consider it for your next website. Even if you aren’t setting up a blog it works great as a CMS. Not only is it SEO friendly (with the help of plugins) and super easy to use and maintain, but it is also great for the design side!

Many designers create wordpress templates and give them away free, in return you just have to leave a link to their website at the bottom. Great you say, this happens for static websites as well! Very true, but in my experience the wordpress templates are of a much higher quality and there are thousands available.

Installing them is the easiest thing ever! All you do is upload the template to a folder called ‘wp-content’ in your hosting, then login to your members area and activate it - bing - your website instantly has a swish new design! If you want a bespoke design there are plenty of companies/individuals who specialise in wordpress templates. Or if you know CSS and HTML you can create your own masterpiece yourself!

So if you aren’t already using wordpress then download it now and install it on your next website. This blog uses a wordpress template given away for free, not bad hey!
