Why do you use WordPress?<\/em><\/p>\n

The feeling I get knowing that a struggling single mom, a business family, an entrepreneur, and multi-million dollar company creates revenue and dramatically shifts the economic trend to greater financial prosperity is absolutely irreplaceable.<\/p>\n

When and how did you get started using WordPress?<\/em><\/p>\n

About 7 years ago, a Toy Store owner needed to liquidate her inventory. After a few WordPress sites under my belt, we used WooCommerce and that is when I saw the real potential of WordPress.<\/p>\n

How do you stay informed about WordPress news, tips, etc.?<\/em><\/p>\n
