Why do so many digital publishing sites use WordPress?
1. Performance and scalability
Your platform should grow with you, and with WordPress it’s part of the design. WordPress is constantly evolving with under-the-hood improvements with regular updates, to enhance speed and stability, particularly for high-traffic websites.
WordPress goes beyond speed and performance, it also offers features such as multisite and multilingual capabilities to ensure you can scale your media organisation effectively.
2. Editorial efficiency
Transform your teams’ digital publishing experience by enabling them to handle and publish large volumes of content quickly and efficiently. WordPress can streamline editorial workflows, allowing you to update articles frequently to meet fast news cycles.
With an intuitive interface requiring minimal training time, content teams can stay efficient and focused on delivering timely updates.
3. Increased revenue opportunities
Regardless of the traffic a site or individual pages attract, you need to deliver smooth user experiences. Audiences demand it and bottom-lines require it. WordPress is well-suited to delivering on both fronts.
It’s can also be tailored for delivering user-friendly paywall management for subscription models and non-intrusive ad integrations for wider plays.
4. Security you can rely on
For digital publishers, security is crucial. WordPress benefits from a proactive global community that continuously updates the platform ahead of emerging threats.
Regular releases focus on fixing vulnerabilities, and the platform offers security plugins, like two-factor authentication and automatic backups. With WordPress, you can rely on strong, ongoing security, allowing teams to focus on delivering content with peace of mind.
