  • If you’re a semi-competent designer and have experience with PHP, there’s no reason you can’t do what you’re talking about. You’ll have to convert your site to work within the blog system, but all you basically have to do is make a template and then make your existing pages into WordPress pages. Then you can use WordPress to manage your content. I did almost exactly this for my church’s website.

    Be warned, however – it’s not the sort of thing where you download a magic import tool and it does it for you – it requires some work on your part. It’s worth it in the long run though, IMHO.
