WordPress is no doubt a great blogging platform. However, it is also a user-friendly Content Manangement System (CMS) that can be used to run a website. However, you have to tweak it to not look like a blog and more like a traditional website. The easiest way to do so is probably through an appropriate theme. I ran into the Phanatics theme, which looks very asthetically appealing with a monetary fee for its license. I also found the free Weaver theme to also be good looking.
For basic sites that I don’t want to host, I’ll probably still be using Google Sites. For sites that I want more control over and be able to host, I’ll rely on WordPress with an appropriate theme.
