WordPress and Magento. To integrate or not


Blogging is the big part of company’s marketing activities and blog extensions are widely needed as a part of web-site. Therefore these two very powerful platforms are often integrated together. Magneto is used for  managing products, inventory, sales, payment gateways and pages, while WordPress is for blog posts.

Why WordPress?
  • First of all, there are two main reasons to add a blog to your web-site. The first is community interaction. The second is SEO content generation. And for both purposes, WordPress is the fully functional solution.
The rich SEO features built into WordPress like:
  • pingbacks, which notify your website when someone posts an article about it
  • trackbacks, which notifies a website when you post an article referencing it
These features are free at WordPress and create a rich network of backlinks. None of any Magento extensions provide these features.
  • The Magento WordPress Integration is invisible to your end user
You have the ability to customise the fields you need . WordPress  skin is identical to your Magento theme and vice versa, you can leave your CSS files and graphics in the Magento instance.
  • Flexible WordPress Plugins
There are thousands of  WordPress plugins that can improve and add the huge amount of  features and functionality to your WordPress blog.
