Others ?

• Themes : There are more than 7000 themes available more

site very quickly, in that case plugin comes very handy .

WordPress provide many quality plugins which makes your task

easy & quick. Best of all, you can get free plugins to do most

things perfectly well. Most plugins are downloaded, installed and

configured in a no time. WordPress emphasis on ease-of-use

seems to have rubbed off on the plug-in writers!

because WordPress has a clear target audience (bloggers).
