**WordPress Discussion & Tips by John**
Ok today I want to go a bit more in depth from the interview you just heard with Grant. How does WordPress make your life easier when you use it vs another platform for website creation.
Something I know is important for many people is that once their website has been created they do not want to be held hostage by their developer and with WordPress you gain this freedom.
Some of the freedoms of WordPress are:
- You can take it anywhere to any of the thousands of developers out there.
- Online support for many issues you might come across is only a click away.
- There is an incredible community around the platform.
- Learning to use WordPress from the consumer point of view can usually be done in ont a couple of hours.
- The user can focus on content instead of having to learn code to share with the world.
- Adding functionality is as easy as adding one of the 20k+ free plugins or hiring one of the thousands of developers for plugins two of the best I know are Randy & Sean over at http://beautomated.com/
- You do not get locked into a platform you cannot alter.. You can change developers anytime you like..
- SEO benefits are well known
