WordPress Wins Content Management System Award

WordPress has been awarded the Overall Best Open Source CMS Award in the 2009 Open Source CMS Awards.

This is a landmark for WordPress as marks a shift in the public perception of the system, from blog software to full-featured Content management System (CMS).

This is a fantastic achievement as the Open Source CMS Awards received over 12,000 nominations and more than 23,000 votes across five categories.

Every day thousands of new people are embracing WordPress to power not just their blogs but entire sites and communities without compromising on usability or scalability (as would be the case with a legacy CMS).

So Why do we use WordPress as the base for every website constructed at Onlineassist4u.com;

• I am typing this article in WordPress’ text editor. It is as simple as writing an email. You can use it too if you are capable of writing an email.
• Many of our clients love the power of being able to make changes to their own website within seconds. Worpress lets them do this
• Our clients can also upload photos, graphics, audio, pdf docs, videos and more. All through a simple, fast, email-like interface
• WordPress is open source and thus continues to be improved with added functionality by programmers across the globe
• WordPress is used by millions of people daily ensuring a huge community that supports the continued development of the WordPress core
• WordPress is at once free and at the same time priceless
• WordPress is modular in nature allowing the addition of plugins to add all sorts of new and exciting functionality to the websites we produce. new plugins with new functionality seem to be released daily
• WordPress is optimized for SEO (search engine optimization) and this helps your website rise up the Google search engine results placings
• There are a veritable army of people who develop for WordPress. Much of their work is free, some we have to pay for (and do so gladly). Most of it adds value to our business and the online marketing of your business
• WordPress is structured in a similar manner to the best modern websites. It utilizes cascading stylesheets, supports server side scripting (PHP) and has at its heart the mysql database. As such when we develop with WordPress we know we are providing our clients with a product that has longevity
• As WordPress is an open standard we know that clients that chose to move to another supplier can take a copy of their onlineassist4u.com WordPress database and restore it onto another WordPress website. This is important for us as we strongly believe that you should have choices.

There are so many more things that we could add, however, we won’t continue to extend the list as you likely get the picture already.

At onlineassist4u we are WordPress fanatics in the best sense of the word as it ensures our company can deliver the best possible product at the most reasonable price and that our clients can have some independence from us as well being able to make their own updates to their site in real time and, if they find someone they like more than us – however impossible that may sound – even move to a new supplier.

Old, static web design in html is no longer a reasonable option for those that want to supercharge the promotion of their business online. And, as for sites built out of flash, well you might as well just send an email to the search engines and tell them to ignore your website.So get a website that allows you to make the most of your passion for your business and rewards your passion and your effort. get a WordPress website.
