Compared to learning how to create a website, a Wordpress blog is fairly easy to install and build. Wordpress was developed with SEO in mind, and there are some great plugins that will help you make your Wordpress blog even more search engine friendly. "
Why I Use Thesiswww.SurefireMLMTactics.com is a Wordpress blog built using Thesis, a commercially available Wordpress theme. (A theme is basically a framework that gives your blog a certain look, feel and functionality. Do a search on “Wordpress themes” and you"ll find many sites offering themes, both free and commercial versions.)
I chose Thesis for several reasons:1. It enjoys ongoing support and is constantly being improved. (Unlike some themes which don"t function well anymore because they haven"t been upgraded to work with the latest Wordpress versions, Thesis is upgraded regularly as Wordpress itself changes.)
2. It"s highly customizable and you can learn to customize much of it yourself with a bit of effort if you choose.3. It contains built in search engine optimization features that help me promote my site
4. It integrates easily with Scribe, a commercial SEO plugin designed especially with Thesis in mind. Scribe helps me optimize my content to maximize the natural search engine traffic I receive.
It certainly isn "t necessary that you create your blog with Thesis. There are thousands of other Wordpress themes available, many for free. But it is a great choice if you decide to go with it.
