WordPress is the most widely used dynamic site manager (CMS) for both blogs and the creation of professional sites. Easy to access, it allows everyone to participate in the creation and updating of the visual and editorial content of a website, without in-depth knowledge of web design or infographics. Highly developed and constantly enriched by a very active community of developers, it also allows communication and business professionals to create customized and personalized turnkey sites.
