WordPress is the most popular open-source Content Management System and blogging platform, and my personal favorite. Using WordPress as the framework of your website, you can build virtually anything, from a tiny personal website to a huge web portal or social network.

Most of the websites I build are based on WordPress, for the sake of easier, faster and more economic maintenance.
