More and more local businesses are turning to WordPress to meet their need for an affordable solution to publishing their own website for their business. Here are just a few reasons why. Ease And Speed Of Installation - WordPress is very easy to install. Even if you do it the 'hard' way, using the FTP to put the files in place and run the installation manually, it takes less that 5 minutes, giving rise to the phrase 'famous five minute install'.
WordPress is currently in use on around 800,000 web sites. It is a mature publishing platform and is extremely easy to use. An average user, with average keyboard skills and a fairly basic knowledge of IT - for example - a Microsoft Word user, will be able to get to grips with WordPress within an hour or two, and produce a professional web site with relative ease. Not only that, but there are hundreds, or thousands of video tutorials available on YouTube covering every conceivable task in WordPress.
