Overall Satisfaction with WordPress
The corporate website is hosted with WordPress and all users, content and digital marketing efforts rely on WordPress as a framework to support the organization.
- User experience is fantastic - anyone can pick it up in minutes and it’s a pleasure to use.
- The amount of plugins and add-ons available are invaluable.
- Content separated from functionally puts the power of the web in the hands of people that understand users and their behaviors.
- Speed is always a concern. A perfect implementation of Wordpress is fast, but add-ons and plugins can bog down the page load speed. Making that a priority for future releases would help.
- Allowing for a simplified UI for people that may be scared to edit a website for the first time (a first-timer option maybe?)
- Focus on mobile - the current mobile experience for editing content is only ok. Medium does it really well - but they are only focused on content - so maybe an option for content-creation views that are simplified on mobile.
- While it’s not a hard number, WordPress improved the engagement metrics on our corporate site after the latest rebranding and much of our success was related to how easy changing content was.
- Improved pages views through easy-to-use content creation
WordPress is perfect for small to mid-sized business, but enterprise support is better in Sitecore and Sitefinity.
