I’m another to completely agree. Wordpress is a very Search Engine friendly online content publishing system. Don’t forget to link to relevant content from anchor text.

Nobody adviced me but I’m sure positive that I’m moving within a couple of months. If you’re just reaching for problogging, wordpress is the sure way to go.

Great post but may I suggest you add the bookmark buttons at the bottom of your posts so people like me can share your great post with others… After all it’s a great way to get pings and natural links. Again thanks for your thoughts.

I use Word Press for a blog (one that I only update occasionally, just enough to give it some topical history should I ever wish to develop it full time) and I love its ease of use and variety of plug-ins available.

I’ve only ever had one problem and that was randomly this week when I updated versions and an incompatibility problem with a plugin (strangely it was the All in One SEO pack) caused it to fail.

I had FTP my way in and delete all the wp-includes to rectify the matter. Fair play to the producers of All in One SEO pack, a patch was released the very next day and I still recommend using it but I’d be wary from automatically updating the Word Press software as soon as the newest version is released. Wait a few days then do it.

I’m lucky that I don’t use the site for direct or indirect revenue generation but I’d be annoyed if I did!

Thanks for the tip. I’ll look at the SEO plugin.

I completely agree with everything in this post. I am a huge fan of open source and GPL anyway. Wordpress, and the numberless plug-ins, cut all of the initial heavy lifting out of the way, for a super customized and well organized blog. It blows my mind that people pay money for products like coffeecup, which in my opinion are inferior and less powerful than wordpress.
