I’m just about to redesign a website, and have been considering using WordPress as the CMS; largely due to Chris’ enthusiasm and Videocasts.
The one thing which is causing me to pause is the fact that I am a complete WordPress novice which has given me the two big questions . . .
Would I be able to easily install a custom built cart in a WordPress based site?
How Search Engine friendly would a WordPress based website and Shop be? Any tips on making the products SE friendly for example?
I see that there are some good out-of-the-box solutions out there for WordPress, but would prefer to build my own for the client’s specific needs. What problems and/or issues could I face using WordPress to provide the bones of the site?
All tips greatly appreciated.
