			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>WordPress is a perfect website choice for many non-profit organizations. We just did a site for a local Public Library and it&#8217;s a good example to demonstrate the message here. I&#8217;ll make a list of reasons but first mention that WordPress started out as a blogging platform, and it quickly evolved into a framework that allows rapid website development. Almost everyone has heard of &#8220;blogging&#8221;, or &#8220;Blogger&#8221; or &#8220;WordPress&#8221;, but the word is still getting out that there has been an absolute revolution in web design created by WordPress. Non-Profit organizations are switching to WordPress in short order these days and for good reason:</p>
<p>Reasons Why WordPress and Non Profit Organizations Go Together</p>
<ul>
<li>WordPress is free to use and it&#8221;s <a href="http://www.opensource.org/" target="_blank">Open Source</a> so it&#8217;s supported by hundreds of developers and thousands of organizations.</li>
<li>You do not need to be a web designer or a computer programmer to build and maintain a WordPress website or to add new content.</li>
<li>WordPress websites have a structure that major search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bing / MSN like, which makes getting your information into the search engines a lot easier and faster.</li>
<li>The flexibility in terms of appearance and functionality is nearly unlimited. WordPress can display video, images, slideshows, .pdf&#8217;s, and text using artistic rendering as limitless as the owners imagination.</li>
<li>WordPress acts like a CMS content management system. When the content is added, it actually gets put into a database. So you can change the outside appearance of the site &#8211; the look and feel  &#8211; but still have exactly the same content.</li>
<li>It is easy to find an affordable professional to help with building or changing a WordPress website.</li>
<li>Programmers write free WordPress &#8220;plugins&#8221; for every conceivable additional function you could possibly use with a website so you might never need to custom manufacture a software module. It&#8217;s all &#8220;off-the-shelf&#8221; and free.</li>
<li>There are tons of resources to help you learn about using WordPress from books, to videos, to public access seminars and <a href="http://www.meetup.com/wordpressnyc/" target="_blank">meetups</a>.</li>
