As WordPress continues to grow in popularity so has the market’s demand for high quality custom theme design and plug-in development, on a daily basis we receive phone calls into the office asking about WordPress and its capabilities. After all isn’t WordPress just for blogging? Well, not really, while WordPress may have been developed initially as an open source platform for blogging, the framework has proven to be far more robust than just a simple blogging engine. As is the case with most open source projects, once a community develops to support it, the project will begin to develop in ways that support the needs of that very community. WordPress is not only an example of this theory but actually goes out of its way to facilitate its growth with a simple 3 step approach.

Make it light: The core of WordPress is designed to be lean, to maximize flexibility and minimize code bloat, allowing developers to add additional functionality and features without it resulting in code intensive websites.
Facilitate, support and reward the community itself: Check out WordPress.org.
Make it Modular: Plugins are tools that extend the functionality of WordPress. WordPress is designed with a unique plugin dashboard, that allows site administrators to easily turn on and off individual scripts responsible for specific functions on their website. PHP developers can easily develop their own Plugins, allowing them to tailor the site to meet their very specific needs.

As you can see evidenced by this site, WordPress is Beyond Blogging!!
