A blog is not a blog when it is a WordPress static site or Content Management System (CMS).
Helloooo!! WordPress is NOT just for blogs, you silly! It is a powerful Content Management System (CMS) , and thousands of companies are switching to WordPress to manage their own sites right now as we speak!

Take wine and restaurant websites, for example. These sites often have designs using Flash, music and layout elements that make for a visually beautiful page, but that actually prevent search engines from finding the site. Now just how sensible is that, I ask you? Why have a beautiful site that no one will see? Why, that’s like being all dressed up with nowhere to go to show off your pretty dress!
Be a smart cookie and convert your static site to a dynamic site on WordPress, and suddenly you have a platform that is beautiful AND search engine friendly (WP has built-in search engine-friendly stuff). Want the bells and the whistles, too? OK, honey you got it; with WordPress you can have a shopping cart, video, revolving images, Facebook, Twitter, etc. (and without a blog if you don’t want one)!
So, here’s the 411 again: you can have a beautifully designed site with revolving photos, video and other elements that would typically degrade your site’s visibility, AND you can have great Search Engine Optimization…all with a WordPress site.
Here are some samples of companies with beautiful websites built with WordPress that are NOT used primarily as blogs:

(I know, the site is in French. But just look at the design…it’s a great example of a beautiful, simple, and very SEO and social media friendly site.)

This site is very content heavy, which makes for great Search Engine friendliness. Their main focus is their STORY, which WordPress does beautifully!

This uses a very colorful background and images to great effect.
Girl Friday just loves WordPress sites and can build one for you, too or convert your current site to WordPress! It’s your party, so you get to decide how you want to work it honey!
