WordPress is the simplest and most popular way you need to create your own website, blog page and ecommerce site. WordPress has led more than 43.0% of all websites on the internet. More than one in four websites you visit are probably powered by WordPress.
To mention a little more on a technical level, WordPress is an open source content management system licensed under GPLv2. This means that anyone can use WordPress software for free. WordPress, as a content management system, is a tool that makes it easy to manage important aspects of your website (such as content) without the need to know anything about programming.
What Kind of Websites Can WordPress Do?
WordPress was previously a tool for creating blogs, rather than more traditional websites. Nowadays, thanks to changes in the core code, as well as the huge plugin and theme ecosystem of WordPress, all kinds of websites can be created with WordPress.
For example, WordPress not only powers a large number of business sites and blocks, but is also the most popular way to create an ecommerce store! With WordPress, you can create:
- Business websites
- e-Commerce stores
- The Blog
- Portfolios
- Forum
- Social networks
- Membership sites
