Recently, I've been running my second website in WordPress.
At first, I was going to migrate all the current html version to WordPress, but I gave it up because I tried it for a bit and found that the time and effort to migrate was too much.
And so, I thought to myself,
"Why don't I just run the two at the same time?"

The reason why I decided to switch to WordPress is that the percentage of people accessing my site from a smartphone has been increasing recently.
My home page was only intended to be accessed from PC, and I thought it was necessary to make it smartphone-responsive, too.
I also thought that WordPress would be relatively easy, since I'd done it once before, when I remade the website of the town hall association two years ago.
In the actual creation, I referred to various web sites, and for the design of the page, I displayed the "page source" on a web page I liked, and imitated the settings.

The advantages of WordPress are
If I throw in the text, it will be changed to an appropriate shape.
Especially diagrams and photos are put into a suitable format just by throwing them in.
I don't have to make separate versions for smartphones and PCs.
It's all about "I can do it easily".
The disadvantages of WordPress are
It takes time to find the right display settings for you.
I'm worried because I can't control the page myself.
Anyway, at the moment, WordPress is functioning mostly as "my notepad".
