Why WordPress?

Why WordPress?

Posted on 10. Dec, 2009 by Alex Denning in Featured, Interview

Reading this by RSS? You’re missing out.. Part 2 is now online. subscribe by RSS to catch the rest!

That was the question I asked twenty one WordPress theme designers, developers and bloggers; I wanted to get a good balance – not just the theme developers who everyone has heard about! Their answers are very interesting, to say the least. I asked four and the answers will be published over the next couple of days. The questions are:

Why WordPress?
First question. Why WordPress? Why not Joomla! or Drupal or any of the other CMSes out there?

You have the power
Second question. Hypothetically, you have the power to change one thing in WordPress. What would that be?

Problems
Third. What do you see as the biggest problems facing the WP community at the moment?

The future?
Final question. The future? With just about anything possible with WordPress these days, where do you think the future lies for so ething still widely seen as a blogging platform?

We’ll start with the first question. Why WordPress? In no particular order, here are the responses:

I started with WordPress five years ago when I first got serious about web design. Before discovering how easy it was to manage and display dynamic content with WordPress, I was manually coding my CMS systems in PHP. Needless to say, WordPress cut my workload considerably, and made everything much easier — even way back with version 1.2 WordPress was far ahead of the curve.

The reason I continue to use WordPress today is because of its vast extensibility, extreme flexibility, and widespread support throughout the open-source community. Bottom line: there is no reason to use anything else because WordPress can pretty much do it all.
-Jeff Starr

Before WordPress, there was b2, and I have been using b2 since 2002. Eventually WP was forked out from b2 and I moved on to WordPress.
-Lester Chan

I started out with WordPress because everyone seemed to be using it. Since I was just a blogger looking for blog software that was good enough for me!
-Ian Stewart

“Why would anybody do 10 clicks when with WordPress you can do it with 2?”

“There is no reason to use anything else because WordPress can pretty much do it all.”

I began using WordPress after a short stint with Blogger – the ability to self host a website, with an incredible backend that was easy to use appealed to me the most. Coupled with a template system that was relatively easy to grasp and I knew I was in the right platform.
-Brian Gardner

WordPress is the best, that’s simple! Just because it is easier to modify, manage and build anything with it. The fantastic community is also a very good point. WordPress changed my way to work on the internet.
-Jean-Baptiste Jung

Back at the very start? The thing that probably made me choose WordPress over Joomla or anything else was how user-friendly WordPress was. It was so easy to get started with it, anyone can do it!
-Michael Martin

I chose WordPress a long long time ago. Originally I chose it because I wanted a blogging app (and not a cms) and I wanted something that was easy to install and use – and at the time WordPress was the best I found.
-Ben Gillbanks

The reason I chose WordPress is the same reason I continue to publish content through the software and that is through ease of use.

The publishing process in WordPress was simple when compared to Joomla or Drupal. The process is in a logical order and doesn’t provide 100 different things I should do before I actually hit the publish button. This process has been refined in the two years I’ve been using WordPress so it’s even better today!

-Jeff Chandler

In early 2004 I stumble across a blog which had a feature I had been dreaming of for 4 years at that time: it was possible to assign multiple categories to a single post (that is, you could “tag” before tag really existed).

That blog was using a new piece of software named WordPress 0.7.1. It was written in PHP, I didn’t know anything about that language. Decided to have a look, seemed fun and relatively easy to grasp, so I decided to give it a try :)
-Ozh

My boss first started with his blog and immediately chose WordPress. After using it for some time we started developing some small websites on it. And since it was so excellent I decided to take up on blogging.

Nowadays why would anybody do 10 clicks when with WP you can do it with 2?! I especially like WP thanks to its flexibility and security. You can either run a small blog with it, a small website or even a popular news site.
-Indrek Saarnak

“It is easier to modify, manage and build anything with it. WordPress changed my way to work on the internet.”

I’ve tried a few CMS packages back in the day, including Mambo/Joomla, Drupal, PHP-Nuke, Post-Nuke, and countless others. None really stood out to me like WordPress. To put it simply, it just did what I expected. I chose WordPress in the first place because I couldn’t find any better option.

Later on I discovered the vibrant community surrounding WordPress including the great selection of themes and plugins. With a simple Google search I could find a tutorial for pretty much anything I wanted to do, through code hacks and whatnot. I was hooked after that.
-Leland Fiegel

Every CMS can be adapted to the needs but with WordPress the efforts needed to extend it is less and making WordPress to act as CMS is pretty damn easy. It is the best Out of the Box CMS available in my opinion.
-Ashfame

WordPress has a very good backend and a flexible API. And it doesn’t use a special template engine like Typo3 or Textpattern.
-Thomas Scholz

The very first site I was involved in used WordPress to publish, so I had to learn to make edits, and as I took over more responsibility, I needed to learn even more. Since then I’ve never looked back, and I find WordPress so flexible that I’ve never had cause to consider another platform.
-Alex Cragg

I didn’t actually choose WordPress originally, I chose b2. Eventually b2 was forked and became WordPress (and included some code I’d contributed to b2). The decision in 2002 was very different than the decision folks face in 2009. WordPress is very different and the other CMS packages have grown as well.

To me it comes down to a pragmatic choice. WordPress typically does much of what we need for a site, and we can teach it to do the rest in a forward-compatible way with the plugin and theme system. Other CMSes are good choices in specific situations as well, there is no “one size fits all” CMS – but WordPress does fit a great many.

-Alex King

I heard about WordPress before Joomla, Drupal, and many others. I might be working with those systems if I’d found them first.

I had previously tried PHP-Nuke and creating my own platform (with almost no PHP knowledge). Since neither of those solutions worked, I gave WordPress a try. It wasn’t a match made in heaven on the first go though. Everything didn’t “click,” so I tried out blogging by keeping individual blog posts in text files for a while. Eventually, that got tough, so I tried WordPress again and finally figured out what the heck was going on.

This was early 2005, so WordPress wasn’t quite as easy to work with as it is now, and I had no experience with content management systems.
-Justin Tadlock

WordPress is very flexible… If you put your mind to it, you can do almost anything with the platform. It’s also Simple & Efficient.

I can typically take any theme concept and have a fully functional WordPress theme in a matter of hours. And finally, WordPress is fun. I truly do have fun developing on WordPress. I discover great new ways to implement functionality with every theme I develop.
-Jason Schuller

I used PHP scripts like CuteNews to run the dynamic parts of the websites I created before, until a friend of mine told me about how great WordPress was. I wasn’t really turned on at first, because I had to build my whole website “around” WordPress e.g. make a theme. This seemed like a hard task, but I fiddled around with the default theme and soon found other free themes to use. The rest is history ;)
-Magnus Jepson

One of the most important things that make WordPress a winner is the fantastic community. While I am very familiar with Drupal and Joomla and have used them in many projects, I prefer to use WordPress especially for my client’s projects due to it’s easy of use. Especially Drupal can be very confusing and Joomla unnecessarily heavy when you need a small website.

“Why WordPress” can result with pages of explanation but my quickest answer would probably be “because I love it”.

As a nature of business that we do, we are quite often being requested to deliver “all in one” package to our clients where they only want to write and publish. And WordPress gives us what we need to.

I am not at the position to judge Drupal or Joomla. They are two great and extremely powerful tools and probably what I do today is also possible to be made using Drupal or Joomla as well. But the reason why I started with WordPress was because it was simple enough to customize. Community is always there to find solutions for any questions.

    I have no formal webdevelopment education whatsoever, and have only been trying to make websites for myself for about a year now. I have always used WordPress because I started out with a blog, and I do not have the ability to make any kind of decent website on my own. One year later and every single day I am still amazed by the things I can accomplish with WP, and the awesome community that is always, ALWAYS willing to help. WordPress is my god.

    Great collection Alex!!

    I actually started on WordPress because of the plugins. At the time I was using Typepad and ran a Typepad Hacks website (big surprise, huh?). :)

    WordPress Plugins make everything so easy, so I made the switch, fell in love, and haven’t looked back!

    WordPress offers me the most flexibility for someone who is purely a designer (scared of HTML not to talk of php). It is by no means perfect but when i stick with it, I always find a solution or someone who has already gone through the stress and solved the problem.

    Personally my biggest challenge is still being able to customise the look easily, but then, I guess that’s easy for developers. Another gripe is it seems really slow in loading but in all its the a lovely package.

    WordPress is freedom. for front end designers like me – you can pretty much design themes any way you want.

    Case in point – I like how yo laid out this post – with the “random paragraphs” look. Very Nice! (a little heavy on the text shadow though)

    I use it partly because when I was doing support for web hosting I didn’t see people getting hacked because they had the current version installed. Frequently it was Joomla installs because they never renamed the htaccess.txt file to .htaccess or old scripts.

    It’s the combination of ease and complexity. It’s easy to install, especially after you go through it a couple times. But, with the plugin and theme systems, you can get it to do just about anything you need. Add in my knowledge of php for those occasions where I need to some hand work and there’s not really any boundaries.

    The brand has also grown to the point where it’s an easy sell to people. I keep a list of all the large sites that use WordPress. People buy into the brand fairly easily when they see a sampling of the others that are using it.

    We have always been using a custom home brewed CMS to handle our sites. It became a real chore over the years and we have been switching all of our clients to WordPress. The platform has been treating us very well and hope the community continues to grow especially now that we am a part of it!

    I use wordpress for my client’s sake.

    I do marketing and design for small businesses- usually sole practitioners. Using WP allows me to implement designs much faster/easier- which, of course, allows me to charge less.

    Moreover, web design clients shouldn’t have to pay some guru an hourly rate every month to do edits and upkeep. With WP, I’m able to train my clients and let them do most everything themselves.

    I think WP is the ethical choice for most small business web design clients.

    WordPress has consistently been the right choice for me. I attribute this to the outstanding community, and up-to-date documentation. It was these that drew me in, and eventually it became familiarity that keeps me tied to it. The idea of picking up a new framework seems wasteful when getting those same results from WordPress is not only possible, but easy.

    In a word, Comfort.

    I thought it would be a good idea back in 2004 to make a blog that was based on XML as the data source just for giggles. After that became a pain after a week or so I gave WordPress a go and haven’t looked back :D

    I started blogging with Blogger but was curious about the idea about “self-hosted” blogs. I was planning to use WordPress “temporarily” just to try it, but I never looked back and WordPress is now my CMS of choice.

    I’ve tried other CMS including Drupal and Joomla! but nothing matches the ease of use and flexibility of WordPress.

    Since I begun working @ lasprovincias.es, the leading newspaper in Valencia Land, in Sept. 2008, I simply did not questioned the use of other CMSes. Just chose WP for using it as the main CMS for local developments.

    Since then, More than 10 projects have been released under WP/WPMU flavour, and our VIP blogs network -currently in deployment- will of course use all WP potential. Ths will be the first time I use WP as a blog platform at work.

    Why WP? The question is not why WP. In my humble opinion, the question is, why don’t you try to do THAT THING YOU ARE SUFFERING TO DO in a better, smarter, simple way with WP?

    I was really hoping this collection of comments would be suitable for sharing with clients, but the results were too geeky. Especially since there was multiple “I’m only using it because I used b2 comments”.

    Still a great post, but I was hoping it would be a good place to point folks too that were considering WordPress as a platform.

    Hello Folks!

    I just love WordPress although I am bewildered by how fast it moves up in 2.8.1 2.8.2 etc.

    One more thing…don’t you think WP could fix the pinging problem?

    I’m referring to the problem that is caused by people such as myself,who have to make many changes to posts, causing the post to be “pinged” too many times – risking possible ping-spam penalties!

    I installed MAXblogpress’ ping optimizer and it seems to do a great job…and you can “control” it.

    Thank you,

    One day I looked for and downloaded 3 PHP CMS platforms — Movable Type, Joomla, and WordPress — and a had a ‘platform battle’ so to speak.

    I said to myself, “I’m going to install each one of these platforms to a subdomain on my website — ‘mt’, ‘joo’, and ‘wp’ — and whichever one I like the best, I’m going to stick with it.”

    Needless to say, WordPress won hands down with it’s quick & easy installation, plus it closely resembled a personal CMS platform I had coded for previous projects in 2004 & 2005 before I even knew what a CMS was.

    Unfortunately, I couldn’t even get the other 2 platforms to install properly, which is not to knock them, because it could’ve been my fault, but I guess I didn’t need to look back after feeling out WordPress and seeing what it offered.

    I choose WordPress about two months ago over the other CMS for no other reason other then I liked the name.

    I am so glad I did. The extensibility and plugins are simply incredible. I get a kick out of trying different pieces and WordPress never breaks.

    I was gonna crack the books and do my site in HTML and only use WordPress for the Blog section but after seeing it in action I abandoned that idea and stuck with WordPress for the entire site.

    Very cool software.

    Why WordPress:

    - You can host Wordprees on your own domain .
    You get all the benefits from links to your site and more overall control, plus you can have ads, all sorts of wonderful plugins and tweak whatever you want (with very little php knowledge)

    - WordPress installation on my site was easy, in fact most webhosts offer an automated installation option, which is handy, and another reason to go for WordPress.

    - Customization of WordPress was also easy and there are thousands of themes out there you can choose from and modify easily to create a personal style.

    - The Admin interface is good, since version 2.7 (before, it kind of sucked).
    You spend a lot of time with the admin interface, it’s important to have a good one!

    - WordPress is highly popular which brings these benefits: lots of community support, large knowledge base, bugs tend to get fixed, lots of themes available.

    - The plugins: One of the best features, there are so many that make your life & blogging much easier. I use for example HeadSpace for meta-tags, Nextgen for photo galleries, WP Cache to speed things up, Flexible Upload for uploading images, Post Template for post templates, Wordpess Mobile …adding them & updating them is very easy.
    And because WordPress is so popular, people keep writing more useful plugins for it.

    - Because a lot of other bloggers use WordPress, trackbacks are virtually “automatic”.

    - WordPress is “standard” – if you ever decide to use another platform, you bet they will have an “import from WordPress” option!
    I have used a smaller/more obscure blog software for another blog and regretted it. Updates were a pain, there was no support and extra plugins to speak of. Moving the blog to another platform was difficult.
    Lesson learned: go with one of the popular platforms.

    - I briefly tried Blogger.com, I don’t like the interface so much and find the top navigation bar annoying.

    Personally, I chose WordPress because MovableType (which was a far more mature product at the time) changed their license for version 3.0 in 2004.

    Making the switch to WordPress was great, because I was able to easily make modifications in PHP, whereas MovableType’s Perl-based code had a steeper learning curve.

    I still recommend WordPress over other simple CMS software because it has a large developer community (documentation, plugins and themes), and is easy to extend and modify.

    Cheers,
    Stuart.

    WordPress is different to anything else in the ability it has to scale from a simple blog to a powerful CMS. This allows people who use WordPress to grow their site along with their expertise and resources. We started out as a blog with a theme that was a minor customization of the default Kubric. 3.5 years later and we have an integrated forum, a social network platform, and an online store… all built on the same (but evolved) WordPress core. It has grown with us and there’s a lot of runway to do even more.

    Why WordPress? There are SO many reasons it will be hard to limit my response but here goes…

    1. It is open source.

    Open source allows improvements to be made and input considered from many minds, not just one or even a small group. Best of all it is free.

    2. The hundreds of theme options.

    Changing the basic layout, colors and background graphic is as simple as a click of a button once a them is installed.

    3. Thousands of plugin options.

    If you can think of a function you want, it is likely someone else has already thought of , perfected and provided it for you in a plugin.

    4. Customization ability.

    As a website designer or developer WordPress offers an unlimited variety of options. You can learn only what your need to know or continue to learn whatever you want to. It is an unending education with as little or as much detail as you decide to use.

    I started with WordPress because blogger/blogspot had pratically no customization features. I tried WordPress 1 or 2 times before I was able to setup it.

    During these 2 years I use WordPress, I’ve tested some other CMS like Drupal and Joomla, even tried to go for Drupal and go away from WordPress.

    But indeed, WordPress is great. For blogging, there simpling isn’t anything better, period. For content showing oriented websites, I believe there is also nothing better than WordPress, in the meaning of features/easy-of-use.

    But what I love about WordPress is its action and filter hooks system. It is simple and powerful at the same time, anywhere there is an action or filter call we can customize anyway we want!

    Plugins are easy to start developing (focus on what you wanna do and not on how to talk to the engine), and themes API is easy to use and learn. And now with child themes, I really don’t think it can became easier to customize your site’s look.

    While i still use WordPress im now more of an Expression Engine user. WordPress is good no doubt about that but the three main problems i have is the constant updates, the poor plugins or conflicts with plugins. and power. Handling more than a ‘ blog’ or lightwight cms was not what WP has been built for.It has been built up from a blogging platform and has been ‘hacked’ to do other things. Dont get me wrong i like WP but its not the best solution for every CMS project. There are two main downsides to EE -1. is that its a paid for product (but if a design firm pass that cost onto the clients anyway.) 2. Learnign curve – it takes quite a while to get used to it, but over the last 12 months a lot of training material has become available. Of course many users of WP are not design agencies or have a zero budget and use it for their personal projects / sites. Anyway 2 great bits of software – EE and WP. Just my 2 cents. ( No affiliation with EE other than a happy user ).

    WordPress is a fascinating Content Management System. Its search engine friendly features and the ability it gives the web masters to update the content without any technical skills is impressive.
