What is WordPress?

WordPress is a free, open-sourced content management software program that many web designers use as a platform for building websites.  Wordpress has an active community of developers who are constantly working on improvements and extensions (known as plugins) that constantly make WordPress better and more versatile.

Why is WordPress a great choice for your website?
