Ok, it might be a little too late to sing our praises about WordPress since almost everybody says all good things about WordPress, but let me give you one great example… of one bad situation that got solved.
For the longest time my domain name main page simply displayed a default under construction page, which basically diverted traffic to all my other sub-domains which are topic or theme specific.
To the uninitiated let me bring you up to speed a bit, in my own words, your domain is your site’s name or address on the web, like now you are currently on www.roysencio.com; that is a domain name. A sub-domain is a more specific address within your domain name, like say internetmarketing.roysencio.com, which is still part of roysencio.com yet is created to focus on a specific topic or field.
A subdomain is also defined as in internet terminology, a subdomain is a domain that is part of a larger domain. for example subdomain.domain.com where domain.com would be the domain and subdomain.domain.com would be the subdomain. Often this is referred to as a “third level domain”. This definition of Subdomain contributed by Eric Blackwell. (source: www.realestatewebmasters.com)
So as I was saying, I finally had an idea what to put up on the main domain, and it was basically to build a main blog site that would link to all my other subdomains and to their specific themes of interest like music, marketing, movies and radio.
For a few days there was something wrong, I thought it was buggy, I could not post a blog, and I could not add categories either, so you can say I was getting very disappointed and frustrated and was even thinking that the program was corrupted.
I don’t know why I didn’t do this sooner, but finally… I decided to check the WordPress.Org site which is basically a huge forum / help desk where developers, programmers and users converge for whatever WordPress topics or issues there may be.
That’s where I found the answer, nothing wrong with WordPress, it was all about my browser setting, I had to tweak it… and to think I was about to uninstall and start from scratch. Had I done that I would probably be even be more frustrated because I’d be faced with the same dilemma.
So the thing is, if you come into a conundrum of sorts with your WordPress blog, there is a huge support community that can help you.
What more can I say… WordPress Rocks!
