I'm not sure you understood the purpose of my article, which was <span class="bi">how</span> to turn a WordPress blog into a real website, with various features, and removing the duplicate content issues that search engines don't like. Not *can* it be done, but *how* it can be done. That said, while I don't have a problem doing this stuff, the WordPress forums are filled with people who do. Hence my article. Hi, Hikari.

Don\'t see it as a fully complete solution, see it as a PHP+MySQL enviroment. It has thousands of plugins that add almost all features you want, and you can develop a plugin to do anything u need and is not available. About your first opinion, that\'s a particular theme problem, not a WordPress problem. You can simply edit the theme you liked to make fit better your needs, or just change for another more apropriate theme. In my site for exemple, the original theme didn\'t have any kind of page horizontal buttons and had fixed-width. I tweaked it, added a nice menu with a lot more than simple pages, and made it flexible widthed. And about archive, sitemap and so on, there are a lot of plugins that make it better. You can go to my sites and u\'ll se a bunch if features that help browsing, like a pagebar with numbered links to up to 10 navigation pages, an archive page, and even a page with a list of all plugins I have!

Actually, I was approached by Duane Forrester for permission to include this particular page in "<a href="http://www.theonlinemarketingguy.com/" target="_blank">How to Make Money with your Blog</a>", which permission I gave with my compliments and a little recommendation for the inside of the front cover. (He references me at my commercial site, <a href="http://dianev.com" target="_blank">dianev.com</a>.) It appears that it's been helpful --- so I thank you again for your compliments.

I have several websites that take quite a bit of work, work that Wordpress does much more easily. I have considered switching them over to Wordpress but had issues with how to make them look like a real site, not a Wordpress site. I will use the tactics on this page to see if I can come up with some ideas. Thanks a bundle, Richard Diane,

And WordPress is easily customizable (although whether it's actually "easy" depends on your knowledge). Good point. I suspect you're right, San Diego Insider.

I suppose once something gets labeled as "blog", it gets pigeonholed. We are using WP for business stuff where in some niches, looking like a blog can hurt.
