Expert Tracey Rissik: Reveals The Power Of WordPress

Internet Marketers gained a huge asset when WordPress and other blogging platforms came into being a few years ago. It’s now so much simpler, and more cost-effective, to get your business(es) up and running using blogs. Add to that the fact that Google loves the fresh content that comes with regularly maintained blogs, thus making SEO that bit simpler, and blogging looks even more appealing.

Self-hosted WordPress has certainly been the front-runner of the blogging platforms, being used by such heavy-weights in Internet Marketing as Yaro Starak (http://www.entrepreneurs-journey.com/), Darren Rows (http://www.problogger.net/) and the team at Copyblogger (http://www.copyblogger.com/).

Apart from ease of setting up, legions of coders have created some beautiful WordPress themes, and fantastic plugins (or add-ons or accessories) to take the basic “vanilla flavour” WordPress and jazz it up beyond all recognition. So you may have the same base as many other Internet Marketers, but not many people would know it.

Some of these clever coders are now even adding the ability (in some of the the premium themes) to have sales pages within WordPress – without the sidebars and navigation buttons. This takes the simplicity to a whole new level.

Tracey Rissik of The Simple Web Company (http://thesimplewebcompany.com/) has been creating simple wordpress blogs and websites for clients since early 2008, and also consults and coaches people to get their WordPress blogs and websites up and running. She has created all her own sites with WordPress and a variety of free and paid-for themes and plugins, and believes that WordPress is the way forward for a fast simple and affordable internet presence.

She also blogs about WordPress-related resources in between working for clients: http://thesimplewebcompany.com/blog/
