Introduction
Having your own web presence is now pretty much essential in today’s online world. Even teenagers have their own pages on sites such as Facebook and many other social networks. But the problem is that these free site-building services can come and go, change the rules without notice, and impose restrictions.
When we think of making our own website, usually our minds shut down thinking of a bunch of code. But what if you don’t need to do any of such things?
So, do you want to make a website without doing a single line of code? Yes, you heard right! No coding is required! If you are thinking about wordpress, then yeah you got me! There are more than 1.5 billion websites on the internet. And it might surprise you that wordpress owns more than 40% of all websites. Now let’s talk a bit about wordpress. So, what is wordpress?
Wordpress is a free and powerful package of software that sits in the background of your web server and performs all the technical processing that delivers your content to your user or visitor on their local computer. In simple words, say wordpress is a free website creation platform.
It provides us with a beautiful WYSIWYG interface which means (what you see is what you get). It is the webmaster that skips the requirement of HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, and any other coding language for you. As you know, wordpress is a widely used content management system (CMS) and some of the big players like The New York Times, About.com, the white house, and many more are using it right now.
