WordPress is widely held as one of the simplest ways to get your presence to the web. You could have your personal hosting available, so you choose the name of your website, or have WordPress actually host everything for you personally, free of charge.
Because WordPress is so popular, a lot of people choose to use it with their business sites. Business sites are the ones which are representing a business, or selling products in some manner.
If you do wish to participate in WordPress eCommerce, then it is possible. Originally, WordPress was strictly a blogging platform and was only used for small sites.
