Requirements
Client needs to ensure that his hosting package does have one new MS SQL database
available for the installation. Without the availability of the MS SQL database,
the free installation will not work and hence, your WordPress cannot be installed.
What is WordPress?
WordPress is a state-of-the-art semantic personal publishing platform with a focus
on aesthetics, web standards, and usability. What a mouthful. WordPress is both
free and priceless at the same time.
What are the Benefits of WordPress?
Some benefits that the WordPress content management system includes are greater
site consistency, improved site navigation, streamlined authoring process, faster
turnaround time for new pages and changes, increased site flexibility, support for
decentralised authoring, increased security, reduced duplication of information,
greater capacity for growth, and reduced site maintenance costs.
Why are you using a WordPress website?
With WordPress, you will find that it is quite easy to build and manage dynamic
websites. You can perform nearly all of your DNN site building with a web browser
and do not require any special development tools. To learn more and see a step-by-step
guide to using WordPress, please see our WordPress Guided Tour.
Fully extensible and scalable
Suitable for many projects, from the smallest website to the largest corporate deployment.
Internet or Intranet sites can be developed entirely with built-in WordPress features,
or can be augmented through third-party private assembly tools.
Clearly licensed under a BSD-style license
Software can be completely incorporated, modified, and adapted to personal/business
use without having to worry about legalities. So no licensing issues are of concern
with DotNetNuke Hosting.
Constantly evoloving through real world trial
The open source nature of WordPress allows programmers and webmasters to read, redistribute,
and modify the source code, essentially evolving the software at a rapid pace. End-user
suggestions result in quick improvements and enhancements to the software.
Emphasis on security
Emphasis placed on validation, encryption, bugtracking and potential threats.
User friendly interface
Well-researched interface makes it easy for users to manage all aspects of their
projects. Site wizards, help icons, and an inutuitive user interface allow universal
ease-of-operation.
Large user base and easy access support
With a dedicated core programming team, over 125,000 registered users, and a growing
legion of third-party WordPress developers, hosters, and resellers, community support
is always close-at-hand.
