Why setup a lame wordpress blog, when you can instead setup a mini social network community, in the same hosting cost? You do not need a costly dedicated server for the script, a simple shared hosting account is more than enough.

Its server load and mysql load is much less than a regular wordpress blog, and produces a much more cleaner HTML!!! Wordpress is now merely the choice of freelance designers, novice webmasters who do not know the first thing about HTML, and retirees-turned webmasters who are still living in 1999.
Nobody sensible will ever use wordpress for their content management. Read why you should not use WP anymore.

Are you still using the ancient wordpress blog script?

Are you still a fan of a 12 year old blog publishing software and still using it?
Would you use a windows98 PC in 2020?
Like mentioned in why you should not use WP anymore , wordpress is basically just a blogging software at its core. Everything else that you see on a wordpress blog is the result of third party extensions and plugins. A lot of these plugins are coded by novice PHP coders, who have little to no idea about web security. This is one reason why you see so many wordpress websites getting hacked, resulting in loss of data, loss of search engine ranks, and even law suits.
Wordpress never took the time to develop their own basic structure to officially integrate some of these plugins in the core wordpress system.

ePowerPress is 7 times more powerful at its core!

The above mentioned feature list is merely the tip of the iceberg!
I know the importance of SEO for webmasters, and this is why entire ePowerPress software is 100% SEO optimized with SEO friendly links, meta tags, and proper link structure. Your google sitemaps are generated automatically at your-domain.com/sitemap.xml and you can simply submit that URL to google webmaster tools!
The inbuilt advertisement system allows you to runPay-per-view or Pay-per-click ads from within your website itself, and can be used as a paid or free tag directory system.

Inbuilt advertisement & directory system of ePowerPress

Face it, the old stand-alone directory business is dead. It went down when google stopped displaying page rank publically. Nobody buys links for PR anymore.
But people still run ads for visibility and SEO friendly backlinks. The inbuilt directory system does just this. Provides exposure to webmasters submitting to your directory, and puts money in your pocket!

  • Choose to run pay-per-view or pay-per-click ads, or keep the system completely free.
  • Choose display mode of listings as "Traditional" or "Content-Link" style to give more benefit to your advertisers.
  • Ads are displayed on related posts, and on top in directory pages, giving more exposure to your advertisers. Top paying ones even make it to your homepage!
  • Control if outbound directory links use NoFollow, NoOpener, NoReferrer etc tags in rel, or a combination of these, or none at all.
  • Deactivate both advertisement system and directory system by simply deleting one file from your installation of ePowerPress. Or use the system only as paid advertisement system, while turning off directory functionality.
  • Ability to manage listings from admin section. Activate pending listings, disapprove them, edit them and more.

Theme and styling features of ePowerPress

Themes for ePowerPress are extremely easy to code and install. All the display generated by the script is marked with stylesheet class attributes, which you can control from your theme stylesheet completely. Simply drop a themeName.htm file in your "THEMES" folder, and set this as your website theme from admin panel.
A couple of themes are already provided to you by default, and you just have to get a logo designed. Now set this logo as your website logo from admin panel to use with one of the default themes. You need not touch HTML if you do not want to, or do not know how to.

Styling and display features of ePowerPress

With just one click, you can change your website from a blog into a full fledged tag forum style, while still preserving all your previous posts and comments. Absolutely nothing else needs changing, except one style setting in a dropbox from admin panel!
Likewise, you can switch to a full fledged community social network, like twitter or facebook, again by simply modifying 2-3 settings in the admin section! Allow basic vote up and vote down rating system on posts, or allow users to "react" to posts like you see on facebook, notifications of username mentions, notifications of replies and more social network features useful to run a community website!
And you can further extend these using plugins, like AtHashPal social network.
Best part, even after switching style, you keep all your search engine ranks, preserve all your post URLS, and search engines barely notice any major difference on these internal post pages which they are ranking!

Temporary moderation powers can be given to members to allow self-moderate their own created topics. Note, moderators cannot edit posts of others, they can only delete spam comments and keep the website clean!

ePowerPress inbuilt Landing page features

From time to time, you might want to run an advertisement campaign and track performance of individual ads you are running. Landing pages allow you to do just this!
Reporting stats features of landing pages system is so powerful that you might be tempted to use landing page management as your default CMS, but I suggest you use the regular post system instead, cause it supports commenting, reactions, tagging, advertisements and more.
However, if you do not care for user comments and interactions, then the landing page system can provide you more power to run a website!

  • Create and edit as many landing pages as you want.
  • Have 100% control of how each landing page looks. You can even set a different theme for each landing page you design.
  • Track visitor hits, browser & device, referring domains, and geo location of your visitor for each landing page.
  • Track stats based on hourly reporting, daily reporting, and monthly reporting.
  • Categorize landing pages using tags, allowing you to track performance of 2 similar campaigns very easily on a quick glance. Example, tag 3 landing pages as "#holiday", activate one on Christmas, one on black friday, other on New year, and track performances of each separately!
  • Display these special landing pages on homepage, in footer, in navigation menu, or keep them completely hidden from regular website visitors for use only with marketing ads campaigns.
  • Pin one of your landing pages as your static default homepage.
  • Ability to expire a landing page on a particular date. Useful if you want a special offer to end after a particular date. So if you want to end a New Year offer after 31st December, then set a expiry date of 1st January of next year, and you are done!

Using HTML in posts and comments

ePowerPress comes with a cross-browser supported BB code editor to format your posts and landing pages.
Note, landing pages also support raw HTML for complete control of display.
Even if you do not know any HTML, its still easy to create links, include images, create tables, align text blocks, bold italic underline text, create lists and color text using the default BB editor.
"PREVIEW" allows you and users to view the post formatting before creating the post.

Plugin system of ePowerPress

Although ePowerPress comes with tons of default features of its own, but sometimes you might want to extend or even completely replace a particular functionality.
The inbuilt plugin system allows you to do exactly this.
For example, payments with paypal is already integrated when webmasters submit websites as paid ads or as paid directory submissions, but you might want to integrate more payment options, and coding a simple plugin function is the way to do this.

Coding a plugin is as simple as coding a PHP file with one or more functions, and then including this PHP file of yours in the ePowerPress index.php file somewhere.

You can even replace a core PHP function of ePowerPress using a plugin. Simply include your PHP file before ePowerPress loads its functions, and now ePowerPress will use your coded function!
The AtHashPal's Top Fans section on the default profile page of a member is the result of a plugin coded by AtHashPal developers. This plugin extends an existing functionality.
Likewise, the same plugin created a completely new page on the website, this one, showing followers of a particular member.
Likewise, the dashboard of a logged in member is completely replaced by this same plugin, and does not shows the ePowerPress default dashboard at all. You will have to login at AtHashPal to see how smoothly it works!

All it took, 3 PHP functions, and done!
By the way, AtHashPal is a new upcoming social network, which allows SEO friendly backlinks, and you already know the importance of social backlinks. Come, Get some!
