Wordpress

WordPress is a state-of-the-art semantic personal publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability. What a mouthful. WordPress is both free and priceless at the same time.

More simply, WordPress is what you use when you want to work with your blogging software, not fight it. However, WordPress is more than just blogging software. It can also become a full content management system (cms). Through the addition of plugins you can extend Wordpress to include a shop, customer management, contact forms, forums, the list is endless.

A web content management system has features to ease the tasks required to publish web content to web sites.

Web content management systems are often used for storing, controlling, versioning, and publishing ecommerce, news sites, blogging, photo galleries, sales guides, and marketing brochures. A content management system may support the following features:

• Import and creation of documents and multimedia material
• Identification of all key users and their content management roles
• The ability to assign roles and responsibilities to different content categories or types.
• Management of shop stock and sales information
