The webThemes website is built on WordPress and we use it as the basis for creating all websites.
WordPress is free software and is a web publishing platform which basically enables web developers to create websites and blogs. WordPress requires a theme (you get a free one or buy one) and can be extended by plugins. Again, some plugin functionality is free while some needs to be purchased. A very well-known plugin is Woocommerce which is a sophisticated eCommerce system.
You can develop a website in PHP, HTML, CSS and other software. Or you might choose to buy a “page builder” such as Elementor or Squarespace which typically features drag-and-drop software that lets you customize elements on a page. A page builder does not require code to be written.
WordPress is also known as a content management system (CMS) as it stores the website content such as text, photos and videos. It allows the end-user to make changes to the content, using a secure logon.
