- Plugins: WordPress extends its functionality with plugins, allowing users to add features such as contact forms, SEO tools, social media integration, etc. The plugin repository offers over 58,000 free plugins, with thousands more premium options.
- Responsive Themes: WordPress themes are generally responsive, meaning they automatically adjust to look good on any device, from desktops to smartphones.
- Multilingual Support: WordPress supports multilingual sites either natively or through plugins, enabling the creation of websites in multiple languages.
- Media Management: Users can easily upload and manage media files (images, videos, etc.) using the drag-and-drop media uploader. WordPress also offers basic image editing features.
- Content Management: It provides tools for creating and managing content, including posts, pages, and custom post types, along with categories and tags for organizing content.
- User and Role Management: WordPress includes a built-in system for managing users, allowing site owners to assign roles and permissions to control access to different parts of the site.
