Great Post. I have been playing with Wordpress blogs for the last couple of months and I am now trying to build a (static home page) site. I am going to do it as an educational site–educational for me–.
Thanks

Great article! I just built my wife’s simple 10-page site with Wordpress, we both LOVE the result, and I’m thinking about moving my company’s 80-page site to Wordpress as part of launching a new blog. This article and those it links to are helping me make that decision. I don’t need CMS as I’m the only webmaster, but all the other SEO advantages are HUGE, and the idea of utilizing Wordpress plugins to add fancy functionality is tempting because I’m not (and don’t have a) developer.
I also think I could get value out of creating the new discrete DB-based content layer — letting customers build custom pages/datasheets, letting sales guys easily get current copy for RFI responses, etc. Anybody done anything like that?

EXCELLENT post Stephan. Well, this has convinced me to really dive into WP - regardless of its other warts. I definitely need to depart Blogger...changes there just aren't happening fast enough...like STATIC pages. - Max (aka MaxTheITpro) blogs: http://MaxTheITpro.BlogSpot.com http://GoAfricaGo.BlogSpot.com

The menu at the would appear to be the tricky bit (assume it must work without JavaScript for accessibility reasons).
With this in mind, what template would you recommend we use as a starting point?
I had already asked my development team to stop building the extranet for partners and instead, use wordpress – however I’m begining to believe that we should use wordpress for the entire site.
