When we say things go hand in hand we mean are talking about things that work together. The reason that WordPress is what it is today is, one, it works. It has been around for some time and has been developed and has grown with the times. Secondly, it is simple in form and structure in that anyone can learn to use it. Even if you have no computer skills, you can learn to use WordPress. Now, you may never be able to change the font of your menu, but you will be able to take a picture from your camera and place it on a post and add your content and be happy with your work.
And here goes the hand in hand part. Because of the above features, it is probably the most widely use Blog CMS software out there. And with that, it continues to get better, and have more features.
Many years back I devoted hours and hours to developing websites. And over those many years I developed an ungodly number of sites. Great! Well not really. As time went on, supporting all the sites became more of a headache then what is was worth. And one might think that all support made me money. Yes, it did, but it wasn’t worth it. The answer was in Content Management. Where as the developer, I built the framework. Customized the site to fit my clients needs. Then taught how to manage their site on their own. They no longer had to call me to add a name, change and address, or add a page. They, could do it themselves. Not only did that save time, but is saved them money. And we all like to save money.
With that I did my investigation, testing and what not and decided that WordPress was the way to go. I barely need to load up my web development tools anymore and I like it. My clients like so once again have another hand in hand process.
