What is WordPress?
Content Management System
I have used WordPress content management software to design most of the websites you will see in my portfolio. Once your website is created in WordPress, you can easily make changes and updates yourself. Everything from writing a news article, to uploading a new photo, to changing a price, to adding a product to your shop can be done quickly and easily through the one administration panel.

Plugins Add Functionality
WordPress is highly customisable and works seamlessly with functionality such as online shops, e-newsletters, photo galleries, video galleries, media libraries, Google adwords and more.
Search Engine Optimised
Websites are optimised for search engines as well as being easy to use. If you use a StudioPress theme or install the Yoast SEO plugin, you get an SEO section on every page and post on your website where you can add your own meta titles, descriptions and keywords.

See screenshots below to see how the SEO options relate directly to your Google search results for each page and post.
