Top Benefits of Having a WordPress Website

At Ignition Media we know just how powerful a WordPress website can be, particularly to small businesses trying to make their online presence felt in the online arena. For this reason, we use this platform when creating blogs and websites for our clients. Currently, this is the most popular blogging platform on the market and for a good reason: it’s the best content management software (CMS) and the number one choice of some of the most visited websites in the world.

Having Scepter Marketing development solutions for WordPress and primarily owning a WordPress for you company has the following benefits.

1. WordPress is arguably the most powerful CMS available today – It offers a whole lot of convenience for end-users. This gives the client direct control over the content that they wish to publish. This means you don’t have to wait for web developers to update your website when you need to. This also means saving on cost as you can basically do it all yourself. Adding content to a WordPress websites is relatively easy because the software is intuitive and designed for ordinary people who don’t have any coding or programming skills. Since the technology is simple, you don’t have to spend much time formatting either.
2. WordPress websites are SEO friendly – The people behind WordPress kept SEO and Google in mind when they designed this platform. Of course, you need to optimise your content and use appropriate keywords, but the platform makes it easier for you to make Google notice you content. This gives your website a greater potential to rank higher in major search engines. As you know, better ranking always means more traffic and more sales leads.
3. Easy social media integration – Social media networks like Twitter and Facebook are definitely huge, both personally and for businesses. Attracting billions of users from all over the globe on a monthly basis, you’ll want your website to get as much exposure as possible from social media networks. WordPress allows for easy social media integration. You can simply add buttons that your visitors can click on to quickly share your content with people in their network. This is a great benefit as it can improve your traffic exponentially which is the key to gaining new customers.
4. Ideal for small businesses – Unlike custom made websites that are built from the ground up and require lot of difficult coding, WordPress websites are significantly more cost effective. They are also easier to manage and don’t require regular maintenance. For this reason, you’ll actually save more money in the long run.

So it makes sense that the technology allows users to easily incorporate their blogs directly to their business website. This is extremely crucial because blogging, just like social media marketing, offers huge opportunity to drive traffic to your website. It’s also a great tool to establish your expertise in your niche and to build stronger relationships with your customers.
