My mission as a WordPress user is to debunk the myth that it’s just for blogs, and help WP users create better websites for the user experience.
Just because you use WordPress to create your website, it doesn’t mean you have to turn into a professional blogger. Plus, it doesn’t make sense for every site to have its content arranged by dated posts and categories.
WordPress was originally designed for blogs, however today people are using the platform to create all kinds of websites.
The Problem
Because the WordPress platform is still closely tied to blogging, many users don’t realize they can use WordPress to create traditional websites. Your content doesn’t have to be organized by a bunch of dated posts.
Of course, if you want to become a true blogger and write loads of news-oriented content on a particular subject then most themes will support this right out of the box.
However, those who want to create more traditional static websites are often left in the dark when it comes to accomplishing this. That’s where my WP Starter Guide comes in.
Not only is it a comprehensive guide for newbies who want to learn WordPress, it also dedicates an entire chapter to menus, static landing pages and navigation to help give your site a more static layout when necessary.
With WordPress, you get the best of both worlds by having the ability to publish both dynamic and static content. Unfortunately too many users only take advantage of the dynamic functions and often leave their visitors lost while important content gets buried in the archives.
Most WP users don’t realize how static pages can be beneficial for both SEO and their user’s experience. After reading this guide, it will change the way you look at developing WordPress sites for good.
