WordPress Powers Over a Third of All Websites

Do you remember 2005? The Motorola Razr, George W., Batman Begins — something else was beginning as well — WordPress, with 50,000 downloads. Nearly fifteen years later, the CMS of-the-people powers over a third of all websites, with the latest release downloaded 14 million times (in less than a month).

WordPress powers a full gamut of sites — from small businesses to some of the biggest brands in the world such as Disney, BBC America and Bloomberg. Along with ease-of-use, newer features like the Gutenberg editor and AMP plugin promise even more autonomy and efficiency over governing one’s content.

We here at WDG love WordPress as well — using it for our own site as well as for many of our clients. If you have any questions regarding WordPress or CMS in general, contact us here. We’ll help you manage your content management needs.
