Everyone from Martha Stewart to Fortune 500 companies to your 12-year-old niece seems to be blogging nowadays. Blogging has gone from something only the nerdly found themselves doing a few years ago to something that your mother likely knows about—if she isn’t doing it herself.
WordPress has done its part to help spread the allure of blogging by making it very easy to start a blog—and to update that blog after it’s up and running.
WordPress isn’t the only blogging tool in town,though. Lots of popular tools are out there, including
Movable Type, Tumblr, Habari, and Blogger.

The Downside of WordPress
All is not sunshine and fruit punch in the world of WordPress. Using a blogging platform that is engineered like this one has a couple of drawbacks:
• Appeal to bad guys. Popularity and an open code base are generally a good combination, but a few people out there are always looking to ruin everyone’s fun. Because WordPress runs so many high-profi le sites, some nefarious types are on the lookout for fl aws that can be exploited.
Luckily, the WordPress developers are very quick to patch vulnerabilities,
but you have to stay on top of the releases.
Dynamic page generation. WordPress dynamically generates most of the pages that you see. Each time you load a post, a bunch of things are happening in the background: Database queries are fi red off, PHP code is executed, and then the page is displayed. Usually, this system isn’t a problem; it ensures that the content of your blog is as up to date as possible. But this approach is a little more resource-intensive than a static approach and can translate to your blog’s being unavailable
under heavy load.
