The WordPress content management system (CMS) is popular with communities, e-commerce stores, educational websites, and blogs because of its flexibility and support to a variety of use-cases. The free, open-source CMS is also supported by advanced plugins that enable users to customize the look and feel of their websites.
Besides this, WordPress is supported by a global community of volunteers who develop plugins and themes, making it easy to learn, adapt, and scale quickly. While it is convenient and reliable for most website projects, WordPress requires strict observation of best practices to keep sites secure. In addition, since WordPress runs on open-source code, thousands of contributors take time to find, identify, and fix WordPress security issues.
