What differentiates WordPress.com from other similar products?
This software is the easiest software for creating blog articles that I have been able to get. It allows me to create posts quickly and without much hassle, with very good plugins to create a fully SEO optimized article, so that search engines will rank them at the top.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It is quite easy to use, it does not take much practice to know how to create a post for an article and start writing. The yoast seo plugin, allows you to optimize each article, both in the area of SEO and readability. It has an image library to upload optimized images. A fairly complete software.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Some plugins are paid, so if you want to have all the features and tools for a quality article and blog, you will have to pay an additional cost. Sometimes when I write a paragraph it moves around when I preview, which is frustrating to have to rearrange the whole article to make it look good.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
So far this has been the best software for creating my blogs, where I can upload all the articles, review the comments I have and even edit the articles after publishing them. A very useful tool for all bloggers who want to have their website at a low cost.
