WordPress is a amazing platform that makes it easy to own and publish your own content online. Unfortunately I am using blogger platform for BD (BlogsDaddy). But I have many other blogs which are running on WordPress receives over 100,000 hits per month. If you’re looking for a start sharing your ideas online, the best way to do this is to create a blog.
Billions of users around the world already express themselves and share their thoughts by means of their personal blogs.
The advantage of having your own WordPress blog that is self-hosted is that you own it. It is also better if you have a Facebook “page” or a Tumblr blog but they are owned by someone else and you can have a web presence there but under their “Terms and Conditions” It is basically a rental.

- WordPress is Open Source
- WordPress is User Friendly
