When the internet was young, there were only a few people who had the resources and the money to create a website. It required a lot of coding that needed to be written and the website would not change for years. However, now things have changed. Now websites are updateable, interactive and actually require very little coding. This is mostly possible because of Wordpress, an open-source content management system (CMS) that allows users to create a website from scratch with absolutely no coding needed. They can choose the layout of the website, add themes and change the color and even install features and incorporate social network links with just a click of a button.
