WordPress is an easy tool to use, only taking a short familiarization phase. If you are running a website with regularly updated content, it is always advisable to make use of a CMS. You can use the backend to create, manage and publish your content, and thanks to numerous themes and plugins, your website does not have to look like an ordinary blog. Beginners however, will reach a limit in their ability to alter the design and individual adjustments. But anyone with a small amount of programming knowledge can customize WordPress to make it even more versatile.
The source code of the themes and plugins can be modified in the backend editor, although it is preferable to avoid this option if you have not yet worked with CSS or PHP code, as you may jeopardize the entire content of the web page created with WordPress.
