WordPress is the most popular blogging system in use on the Web, powering over 60 million websites worldwide. A "website in a box", it can be customised for almost any purpose through a wide variety of plugins and templates to create e-commerce sites, online galleries and much more.
WordPress is "open source" software, which means it is completely free and there is no risk of it being suddenly discontinued.
