Based on my experience, I would recommend WordPress to other people.I would recommend WordPress because it is easy to use and more flexible than a SaaS website such as Wix.I have 10 plus years of experience with WordPress, but we do not implement it. I am an end user and have no relationship with WordPress.I rate WordPress overall a seven.
