Today, many people in Afghanistan are learning how to create websites, and WordPress is the most popular and easiest tool for that. Around 40% of all websites in the world are made with WordPress. It is simple, free, and great for freelancers and small businesses in Afghanistan.
What is WordPress?
WordPress is an open-source CMS (Content Management System).
It helps you make and manage websites without coding. You can design business websites, personal portfolios, blogs, or online stores — all with just a few clicks.
You can also use themes and plugins to add features like contact forms, galleries, or online shops.
