## Frequently asked questions about WordPress development

Why should I choose WordPress for my website?

As a platform, WordPress is one of the most popular because of its simple content management system (CMS), which means there is a backend to the website where you can easily update your website with fresh and relevant content.

In addition, it is open-source, and the core software for WordPress is affordable.

There are thousands of reputable plugins and integrations that work well with the WordPress platform; plus, as it is open source – you can even have your own bespoke plugins developed.

Is WordPress secure for my business?

WordPress websites are secure when they are maintained regularly.

There are many things Code Galaxy does to maintain high levels of security on all of our websites, including:

- Bespoke themes
- Custom development of the content management system
- Enhanced security features during the development process
- Two-factor authentication
- Security scans and maintenance
- Premium and trusted security plugins
