What differentiates WordPress.com from other similar products?
It is so easy to make editions, without having knowledge of website building. I love this, as I can update my website myself free of cost without hiring anyone.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The ease of use and intuitiveness; it is so simple to use once the website is built.
What do you dislike most about this product?
There are some features which seem not to be available, like attachments in forms. Also, there are some issues when one would like to personalise the site more and more. Limitations to design were experienced
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you are willing to make a few compromises on the design of your website, in contrast to how you envisioned it, but also want the site built quickly then Wordpress is great. Most things are possible through it and getting a website built via Wordpress is miles cheaper.
