Just incase you’ve not made up your mind which web platform you want to use we’ll show you why self-hosted WordPress is the best option for your nonprofit’s website. Yes – WordPress is better than Wix, Squarespace and all those other “quick-setup” options. And while many of these reasons apply to any small business, there are a few key points specific to charities.
WordPress Is Easy
Most importantly WordPress is easy to use, even for those new to creating websites. And if you ever get stuck there are tons of free training guides, forums and videos (such as those from WP101) to help you learn.
And once you get the hang of it there are tons of tools to make continued Country Email List WordPress use easy. If you install the free Jetpack plugin (from Automattic, the creators of WordPress) you can publish blog posts via email, with the free SNAP plugin you can automatically share blog posts on social media, and there are tons of other plugins, themes and services for all kinds of other perks just for WordPres

WordPress Is Responsive
We live in a mobile age and users rely on phones and tablets for web access. So for nonprofits it’s essential to have a fully functioning mobile, responsive ready website so your readers can access your blog, events, donation page and more from any mobile device.
Lucky for you WordPress fully supports responsive layouts, just be sure to choose a theme that is responsive. Which shouldn’t be too hard since 99% of themes released in the past few years are responsive. But just to be sure, always test the sample demo site for a theme before you install it just to make sure it has all the functionality and features you’re looking for.
