    Hello all

    I like Wordpress very much.I love to work with it.Well i want to create a static information website,I feel very comfortable with Wordpress....
    My question is Will Search Engines Rank my site well?
    Or do they believe that it is a dynamic website and not updating daily,so that
    the site is going to be out from search engine ranking....
    Is there any way to state in meta data or anywhere that "This website is a static website" so that search engine understands it...

    Please help me...I tried joomla but i feel very comfortable with Wordpress

    Yes you can create a static wordpress site just fine, Google can't tell "Oh this is a wordpress site, if it doesn't update in the next 2 days we will penalize it".

    I am totally in love with WP and the main reason i choose it as a CMS is for the flexibility and ease.

    I would highly recommend you using it as a CMS, i have about a dozen sites built with WP

    Example of one of them http://www.w3joint.com/

    And there is not problem with SE indexing, it will treat ur site like any other

    Depends on what you want..Check out the features of Joomla and WP both and then decide. Both are good, WP being easier and more widely used.

    I like WordPress for simple usage but find that it stuggles when it comes down to a serious CMS. It strips out and filters the content, which is very annoying when you want to paste in HTML content ... and java? - you can practically forget it (unless you use the Adsense plugin).

    Yes, you can design a static website with wordpress. I also love Wordpress for its flexibility and ease of use. If you are still worried about the seo in wordpress then I suggest you to use the All in One SEO Pack plugin where it gives you more functionality that helps your site to be recognized by the SE. You also need to create sitemaps for your new site and for this you need to install Google XML Sitemap plugin. Hope this info helps you..

    Why dredge up an old post, and one that was started by somebody who was banned?
