Yeah, I've definitely found WordPress to be pretty handy. It takes some experimentation to get everything you want, and sometimes plugins are broken or cease being supported, but as they say, you get what you pay for, and since it's all free... On the other hand, lots of people use it and are usually willing to lend advice & help. So all my websites are using it now and I don't have to be a super-techy person myself to do most of what I want.
