    Overview – Many web designers are looking at or currently using WordPress as a Content Management system for their clients. As with any technology there are trade-offs that must be considered. In order to explore this more fully we decided to implement a new site devoted to our Linux Virtual Servers in WordPress. This gave us an opportunity to look at this technology from a different point of view and evaluate it with regards to the following areas:

    • Investigating using WordPress as both a CMS and blog.
    • WordPress Setup.
    • Ease of initial website design and implementation.
    • User generated content.
    • SEO
    • Site performance.
    • Daily Maintenance
    • Security

    In part 1 I’ll cover using our investigations into using WordPress as a CMS and what is required to use WordPress and our design constraints.
