[font='Open Sans', sans-serif]Why is wordpress so popular, when it comes to blogs?[/font]

[font='Open Sans', sans-serif]Even though we have many other blogging softwares, most of the bloggers, prefer wordpress software.[/font]
[font='Open Sans', sans-serif]I am a bit lost. So, would you mind sharing the general idea about wordpress with me?[/font]
 
It is just easy to work with I guess. And a lot of people start with wordpress.com hosting, so later it is even easier for them to move to the wordpress.org software =)

Yeah I do. I was thinking about making a webpage for my classes where I will upload all the materials along with instructions and whatnot, all that is helpful to students. If I do that, I'll use wordpress for sure.
 
I use wordpress for my blog purely because it's easy to customise. We've even used Wordpress as part of my uni course to create a website using the standard wordpress layouts.
 
its easy to use and customizable to the letter. My only problem with it, the software can be a problem server usage wise.

do you have many addons installed on your wordpress?
 
It has many free themes, plugins and n no of support. Best of all you have full control over it. So that's why many prefer WordPress.

n no of support?


but yeah, you won't find any better free blog software than wordpress, just make sure you don't always upgrade to the newest versions right away, they usually are buggy.

What i meant is that, many people are good in php and Wordpress. So they provide help, support if anything needs to be done in the script.

I have a few more on than that, seems adding a lot of addons can make WP resource heavy.
