Wordpress should be the basis for your site if you intend to market your online business with Google Adsense.

Wordpress is a blogging platform that can also be used as a Content Management System (CMS). It takes little time or effort to manage your site's online content and keep your blog up to date with Wordpress.

Using Wordpress's "dashboard" allows you to update and manage your pages and posts as easily as using a word processor. Dashboard also allows you to manage categories and all other aspects of your site

Using Wordpress as your Adsense website's basis is terrific because of the ways you can customize it. Many thousands of different templates (or 'themes') are freely available to Wordpress users, and many of these include Adsense blocks in optimal positions for maximizing your click through rate. You can thus turn your site into an Adsense website by simply uploading an Adsense-ready theme. This means that you have more time in which to think of copy that will attract visitors to your blog and website.

Wordpress contains a selection of templates that include Adsense ad and link units that ...
... are Search Engine Optimized (SEO) to give your site the best possible ranking, by maximizing the attractiveness of your site and all of its pages to search engine spiders.

Pingomatic in Wordpress will help by pinging you for many services whenever you make a new post. With each ping, search engines are informed that your site has new content, so that they can send their spiders to examine it. Wordpress can also generate RSS feeds and complete sitemaps.

As Wordpress is a blogging platform it has built in functionality to allow visitors to your site to comment on the articles you write. You will find that this features makes it much easier for visitors to interact with you and to stay on your site for longer periods of time. (Indeed, since their comments add to your site's generated content, visitors are doing some additional work for you.)

Your site can add functions when you install any of the thousands of plugins that Wordpress makes available to you. One super-useful plugin for affiliate marketers automatically turns words into links. That makes it easy to generate affiliate words and links you would like your site to associate with.

Wordpress is the Adsense and affiliate webmasters best friend!
