In last five years Website Development has witnessed exponential growth. Internet is
flooded with thousands of web designing
companies and freelancers both. Large companies can afford to employ in-house
web development team that can take care of their content management but for
small and medium enterprises, content management is a tedious task.
However there are some open source content
management systems (CMS) which can be used for content management at affordable
rates. One of the most popular CMS is WordPress. It is a robust CMS that allows
hierarchical system controlled by an administrator, who can assign the task of
managing content to employees according to their pecking order.
It was launched as a blogging platform but
now you can use WordPress Development
tools to develop a website from scratch. Even though it’s easier to handle
WordPress, entrepreneurs prefer to hire developers for custom Website Development. Websites designed
in WordPress are easy to manage so you don’t have to call your developer every
time you want to change/ update content on your website.
WordPressDevelopment is very popular for two main reasons,
firstly it is free and secondly it offers unlimited functionality. It also
offers automatic updates to its users. This is the most SEO friendly CMS with a
strong community support. WordPress offers easy customisation of your website. There
are thousands of themes, plug-ins, add-ons and modules which can be used to
make your website more beautiful.
Many small and medium enterprises with
limited budget find WordPress ideal platform to launch their ecommerce website.
Being open source, it is very affordable EcommerceDevelopment platform for them. People are familiar with WordPress ecommerce
system and it is extremely SEO friendly.
Though WordPress
Development is SEO friendly and affordable, it has certain drawbacks.
WordPress is not a very ideal platform for large Ecommerce Development with extensive database requirements. Though
it can handle small and medium sized ecommerce website very effectively, it
fails to do so in case of large ecommerce websites.
The number of concurrent orders on your
ecommerce website can overwhelm the WordPress server resulting in slowing down
of your website, worst case scenario being non responsive website. There are
other CMS like Magento, Joomla and Drupal which can be used for complex Ecommerce Development. That’s why many entrepreneurs
choose to hire Magento or Joomla Developers
to develop bigger and complicated ecommerce websites once they have reached
WordPress threshold.
