WordPress website and backup

[jamesward2987]

I would like to ask if is WordPress the best platform for creating blogs.
Further, how do recover posts that are not backed up on the website?

WordPress is indeed a popular choice for creating blogs, and it offers a wide range of features that make it a strong contender. It's highly flexible, with numerous themes and plugins available for customization. The user-friendly interface and intuitive content management system make it accessible for beginners. However, there are other platforms worth considering too, such as Blogger, Medium, and Wix. It ultimately depends on your specific needs and preferences. I recommend researching and comparing the features and functionalities of different platforms to find the one that aligns best with your blogging goals.

Yes, Wordpress is a bloated, over-hyped piece of junk, as far as I'm concerned. So many people are just so used to using it because of it's previous popularity that they forget there are much better choices out there, especially for simple website needs. I've seen people use it just to create 1 page sites, even though WP has 1000's of files just to create that one page. Ridiculous!

Still an easy platform for creating blogs, if you use a host with a 1 click installer, but avoid using it for anything else if you really don't need it.

Many different plugins are available, so you can choose one that best suits your needs. Once you have installed a backup plugin, you can restore your blog posts from a previous backup.
