In the early noughties, WordPress graduated from the world of b2/cafelog to become, by 2011, the worlds content management system of choice. The evolution of WordPress as a CMS has been accompanied by its associated plugins, themes, tools, and functionality.

A massive 330 pages, SitePoints new WordPress book is testament to this CMSs ability to be customized to meet the needs of a growing market for websites.
At the heart of WordPresss success is its ease of use, open-source ethos, and clean styling, said Sitepoint Co-founder Mark Harbottle. Just about anyone can build a WordPress site, but very few learn to utilize the tools at their disposal that can turn an ordinary website into an elegant and functional business tool too often they dont even know that these tools exist.
