4. WordPress is an amazing option for a blogging website or for posting articles
and tagging and categorizing them based on dates. But in case, if you are
looking for a more vibrant website structure then WordPress is not at all a
flexible option. There are various limitations attached with WordPress:
•
Similar looking sites. All sites made on this platform look kind of
similar to each other. There is nothing unique or special about it.
•
Limited extensions available as compared to Joomla which offers
plethora of extensions for free which can be used easily.
•
Better option is to use it as a part of a website than a complete website.
All these points show the limitations of WordPress. But there are some benefits
of using this CMS option:
•
Very user friendly CMS.

Well designed backend which makes it so easy to manage.
•
Amazing variety of themes to choose from.

semantically incorrect outputs. With the release of Joomla 5.1, these
limitations have been taken care of and this version also offers improved
extensibility and effective HTML output.
