WordPress is the easiest CMS to use. You can use it for any type of site, whether it is your usual minisite, a portfolio site, a magazine style site, or whatever else you want to make. Once it is set up, even if you have no html knowledge at all, you can write new posts and add new pages using a simple text editor.

WordPress is extremely user-friendly, compared to some other cmses out there, which tend to be more robust and have a longer learning curve. The WordPress Support community is extremely helpful too, so incase you encounter any problems, you know exactly where to go!

Also, WordPress is the probably the best content management system in terms of search engine optimization. Search engines are known to love sites powered by WordPress.

And the last, but definitely not the least reason to use WordPress to power your next site is Plugins. WordPress Plugins. There are about millions of them available, and they all can help you in some way or the other. With Plugins, customizing your site will be a breeze.
