It is a great tool for hosting websites and it is also very easy to create websites using this tool. I feel it is user friendly and has a good user interface. We have multiple plugins which make our task easy like woo-commerce, 2 factor authentication etc., which I feel is a very good feature because these helped me create websites with good features. Sometimes updates and plugins are a bit frustrating but overall it is a good tool.

    Maximize Efficiency with WordPress's API-Driven Flexibility and Headless CMS Option

    4.0
    Jun 4, 2025
    I love using WordPress for various reasons and experiences. It has a huge ecosystem of themes and plugins which saves time when adding different parameters such as galleries without building them from start. Many plugins provide filters so that one can style. It helps one to customize frontend themes by using JavaScript, HTML or CSS. It integrates with page builders such as Elementor and this speeds up prototyping. It also helps with getting a website up and running very fast, thus increasing productivity and at the same time saving on resources such as time used. I can use WordPress as a headless CMS with Next.js through GraphQL. This allows me to work on evolving JS framework as the WordPress delves into the content part.
