WordPress Origin Story

I started exploring WordPress after 2012, having used regular html and DreamWeaver, up to this time. A few people were using Joomla – which I had a go with – but after trying WP, I decided it was a much easier platform to use. As WP has grown in popularity and developer support, I feel vindicated in making it my platform of choice and now help produce several WP websites for friends and clients.
