Why you should use Wordpress as framework.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is not a secret knowledge. The truth is that there's no "secret" to be number 1 in the search engines. Yes, there's some basic knowledge you must acquire to implement SEO for your site, but you can find this knowledge everywhere and for free.
The main problem with SEO is not that it's difficult to do or implement, but rather that it's time consuming. Clearly, the more time you spend on doing optimization, the less time you have on producing quality content which is key element to our search engine optimization strategy.
This is why we are looking for tools and support to optimize our productivity, and the most important one, starts not with the list, not with the submitters, but the platform you are going to use to support your website!
Wordpress is the most powerful tool you'll ever acquire in your SEO arsenal.
Wordpress (self-hosted version) is simply the best platform for you site. It cumulates the advantages and power of traditional websites, and blogs. That's right, when designing your site with Wordpress, you can make it looks like a normal blog, or you can make it looks like a website. The template system makes it very easy to change designs, and the wide range of existing templates available for download free makes it all the more attractive.
Blogging is now a key element of effective SEO, and it couldn't be done easier than with Wordpress. Of course people who don't care at all about blogging will still benefit greatly of the Wordpress platform, but its real power comes when you realize what's behind the curtains of Wordpress:
* Ultra powerful blogging platform. Extremely easy to create or edit posts, manage categories, archives, comments. You name it, Wordpress can do it. And if it doesn't do it yet, it will soon as it is regularly upgraded.
* Fully customizable templates. That's right; you have access to the full source code of Wordpress and the templates. Use them as they are or if you are a bit tech yourself, dive into the code and make it be the way you like!

Just browse their template directory where thousands of users create templates for others like you and me to use for free.
