Así que ya sabes, no eres tu solo el que has elegido la plataforma de publicación ganadora, la mayoría de los sitios más potentes que existen también han elegido WordPress.
¿Rompemos ya ese «sanbenito» de que WordPress no es para sitios con mucho tráfico?
¿Te gustó este artículo? ¡Ni te imaginas lo que te estás perdiendo en YouTube!
AVISO: Esta publicación es de hace 3 años o más. Si es un código o un plugin podría no funcionar en las últimas versiones de WordPress, y si es una noticia podría estar ya obsoleta. Luego no digas que no te hemos avisado. ¡Ah! ¿te funciona? pues entonces no he dicho nada :)
Excelente voy por wordpress el mejor el numero 1
Sin comentarios a mí siempre me ha gustado el wordpress por todo aplicaciones sencillas que trae, lo mas importante es que al poderoso Google le gusta el wordpress mas a su hijo “Blogger “ y por otras razones más..Gracias por post está súper bueno.
Y joomla?
Wordpress ofrece ciertas ventajas que otros blogs no tienen. Es lógico este resultado. Lo que me molesta es que la gente lo use como editor de páginas en vez de blog.
