In Japan, WordPress’s share exceeds 80%, making it the go-to CMS for many users.

There are two types of WordPress: WordPress.org and WordPress.com. Generally, when people refer to “WordPress,” they refer to WordPress.org, which is typically installed on a rental server. On the other hand, WordPress.com is a type of rental blog service. It can be used immediately without complex setup work, but it has significant restrictions on functionality and customization compared to WordPress.org.

WordPress allows you to create websites without specialized programming knowledge such as HTML, CSS, PHP, etc. With WordPress, you can create a website with your preferred design from scratch. You can also easily post article content by typing in text and changing decorations and designs with simple operations.

WordPress uses “themes,” which are design templates that determine the overall design of a website. Over 8,000 diverse themes are officially available, allowing beginners to easily create beautiful and stylish websites. Themes can be changed midway, and as you get used to it, you can further customize them using CSS and other tools.

Plugins are extensions of WordPress that allow you to add various functions easily, such as setting up contact forms, security measures, SEO measures, backups, etc. There are over 58,000 plugins available officially, most of which can be used for free.
