What is WordPress? A Simple Explanation

It is basically a software that is used to create and post blogs or websites to publish on the internet. It is also called a Content Management System or CMS. It was created in 2003. It has grown to be the most well-known website publishing application worldwide since its launch in 2003. It powers 30% of websites on the internet.

WordPress is an open-source software and it is free for the users.

With WordPress, you don’t need to know how to code at all. Everything is done through drag and drop. There are more than 11,000 distinct themes available, which are essentially template layouts that define the appearance and feel of your website. Also, it gives more than 50,000 plugins to help optimize the functionality of your website. All of the text may be altered including the fonts and the sizes used, buttons can be made, and even you can add images and videos and much more.
