The World of WordPress is exploding. New plugins, themes, services – not to mention WordPress itself – keep changing. WordPress now is the CMS of choice for about 1/3 of all web sites.
A story I’ve grown fond of telling is how CaptainJetson.com (aka Les Rivera) found my WordPress training videos last summer and learned how to make a successful travel blog.
I’m about to go to Red Alert! These rants have been building up in me. It’s time to get them out for all the world to see.
If you work with words for a living, you’ll benefit beyond words by learning WordPress to make your web site.
Over my 10 plus years of working with WordPress I’ve probably had a good look at close to 1,000 plugins. While I love advising which plugins you must have, the truth is, what plugins you must have is a function of exactly what you need to accomplish with your site.

WordPress has great plugins that make it a lot easier to use. Who needs to waste time redoing something when it is much easier and faster to duplicate and edit it with a simple plugin?
I’ve been a tyrant about keeping WordPress software up-to-date. Unless there is a mitigating factor, you should always run the most current version of WP.
I know why you might be confused when it comes to selecting a web host for your WordPress site.
