Today we discuss content management systems (CMS),  why they are used, and a comparison between the two most popular ones: Shopify and WordPress.

WordPress is a content management system (CMS). It exists in two wrappings; a hosted version on WordPress.com and the WordPress CMS version on wordpress.org.

WordPress had its origins as a blogging platform, but many buyers choose it today to build websites in which blogging is not the primary function. Its core system of templates, pages, and posts allows users to focus on adding content once the initial set up is made.

Shopify is one of the best e-commerce platforms in the market. It is similar to WordPress in that it’s an open platform where developers provide apps and themes. Shopify's core functionality is e-commerce.

It gives users the ability to add products, prices, and sell via a store. Its store builder can produce a good-looking, easy to build e-commerce store. Its themes are the layout of the store, and the apps are used to add more functionality for e-commerce management or marketing your products.
