WEBSITES
What do you need in a website?
- Tool that is easy to use
- Show the information on all screens
- Make it easy to "share" information with social media networks
- Secure (not get hacked so you loose your work)
- Fast & stable (always available)
WORDPRESS
WordPress is today the international standard for websites. There are almost unlimited templates (designs) free and for sale and almost anything you want to do with a website you can add as plugins.
BUT (and this is my personal opinion):
- The Admin tool takes time to get used to working with.
- Code & plugin maintenance is time-consuming and VERY necessary!
- Backups are critical.
