custom posts and fields to create editable text good idea?

Hello guys,

I have a question about wordpress. So I have been following the videos by Zac. Its going very well, without issue.

I just have a little thing that I am thinking off.

Is it a good idea to create editable text for the website by using custom posts and fields? Or would this cause problems a few days after?

Seems simple enough to pull off, and I can't see any problem by doing it?

Thanks guys

First, you can use plugin like Gravity Form to create the text field. Second, you can use custom post and field. I think the two method is good because it give us the way to manage the field data in database.
