The old Republic PR website is no more. This is the new one that is currently being built. Please bear with me and it will be fully loaded with background information and better graphics soon. If you require any further information on Republic please see the pages on the right.
So why have we changed it? The old website was built in Joomla, which is a open source web building programme but it isn’t as adaptable as WordPress, which the new website is built in. WordPress is also open source but it is primarily a blog focused software, so the aim is to have blog as a focus for the new website, with the supporting information pages as secondary.
Why a blog? Put very simply blogs are very good for search engine optimisation. Google loves new content, so because blogs are generally updated regularly Google ranks them very highly.
WordPress has built its reputation as being the best web-building platform for blogs. It is very user friendly and easy to update for the layman. It is also very easy to connect WordPress to other website such as blog directories and social networking sites, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Flikr and Digg etc that are important avenues for modern communicators.
