The next closest competitor &#8211; Shopify with 6.7% &#8211; doesn&#8217;t even come close to matching WordPress.<\/p>\n<div class=\"visualizer-front-container\" id=\"chart_wrapper_visualizer-9318-1851309782\"><style type=\"text\/css\" name=\"visualizer-custom-css\" id=\"customcss-visualizer-9318\">.locker,.locker-loader{position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%}.locker{z-index:1000;opacity:.8;background-color:#fff;-ms-filter:\"progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=80)\";filter:alpha(opacity=80)}.locker-loader{z-index:1001;background:url(https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/visualizer\/images\/ajax-loader.gif) no-repeat center center}.dt-button{display:none!important}.visualizer-front-container.visualizer-lazy-render{content-visibility: auto;}.google-visualization-controls-categoryfilter label.google-visualization-controls-label {vertical-align: middle;}.google-visualization-controls-categoryfilter li.goog-inline-block {margin: 0 0.2em;}.google-visualization-controls-categoryfilter li {padding: 0 0.2em;}.visualizer-front-container .dataTables_scrollHeadInner{margin: 0 auto;}.visualizer-editor-front-container{position:relative;width:auto;margin:5%;background:#fff}.visualizer-editor-front{overflow:hidden;width:100%;height:500px}.visualizer-editor-front-actions{padding-bottom:3px}.visualizer-editor-save,.visualizer-editor-cancel{margin:0 4px;padding:2px 15px}.visualizer-cw-error .visualizer-actions{display:none !important;} <\/style><div id=\"visualizer-9318-1851309782\" class=\"visualizer-front  visualizer-front-9318 visualizer-lazy\"><\/div><!-- Not showing structured data for chart 9318 because description is empty --><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; color: #aaa;\"><em>(Charts by <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/visualizer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Visualizer Lite<\/a>.)<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>3. WordPress is incredibly extensible with plugins<\/h3>\n<p>That means you can add cool functionality to your site without needing to know how to code.<\/p>\n<p>WordPress&#8217; massive plugin ecosystem beats out all of the other content management systems. These numbers are <em>just for the official extension directories, and leave out additional extensions offered by third-parties<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p>Official plugin listings:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WordPress<\/a>: ~62,000+<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/extensions.joomla.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Joomla<\/a>: ~5,200 | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drupal.org\/project\/project_module\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Drupal<\/a>: ~52,000<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>4. WordPress lets you change how it looks using themes. No code required<\/h3>\n<p>Beyond plugins, WordPress also offers an insane collection of themes for your site. Themes let you control exactly how your site looks, <em>again, without needing to know a single line of code<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>You can find thousands of free themes at WordPress.org, with thousands more at <a href=\"https:\/\/themeforest.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">third-party marketplaces<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/themes\/\">developers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>5. WordPress is multilingual<\/h3>\n<p>Not a native English speaker? No worries! The WordPress translation team has translated WordPress into <a href=\"https:\/\/make.wordpress.org\/polyglots\/teams\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">208 different languages<\/a>. Many plugins also offer translated versions, and you can easily create a multilingual site using plugins like Polylang or Weglot.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>6. Rihanna uses WordPress<\/h3>\n<p>While plenty of small websites use WordPress, you can also find tons of <a href=\"https:\/\/wpshout.com\/who-uses-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">big brands using WordPress<\/a>.

WordPress is affordable compared to other solutions<\/h3>\n<p>The WordPress software itself is free and you can find plenty of free themes and plugins to build your site with. That means your only <em>unavoidable<\/em> fixed costs are <a href=\"https:\/\/wpshout.com\/best-cheap-wordpress-hosting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cheap WordPress hosting<\/a> and a domain name. All in, it&#8217;s possible to run a basic WordPress site for as <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/how-much-should-a-wordpress-site-cost\/\">little as ~$60 per year<\/a>, <em>though you&#8217;ll exceed this if you want premium plugins or themes<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Compare that to Squarespace which already starts at $96 per year for the most basic plan.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>8. It&#8217;s easy to <a href=\"https:\/\/wpshout.com\/find-best-wordpress-help\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">find WordPress help<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Because WordPress is the most popular content management system in the world, there&#8217;s a massive support ecosystem for anything and everything related to WordPress. Plenty of blogs <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/\">post WordPress tutorials<\/a>, and there are also dedicated <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WordPress support forums<\/a>, as well as helpful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/c\/wpshout\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">beginner-friendly video tutorials<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>9. WordPress is flexible<\/h3>\n<p>Because of its huge plugin ecosystem, you can use WordPress for everything from <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/how-to-set-up-woocommerce\/\">creating an ecommerce store<\/a> to launching <a href=\"https:\/\/wpshout.com\/create-a-local-search-directory-like-yelp-on-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a local directory like Yelp<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-community-website\/\">building a social network<\/a> and lots more.<\/p>\n<p><em>That is, WordPress is way more than just a blogging platform nowadays.<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>10. WordPress isn&#8217;t just for websites anymore, either<\/h3>\n<p>WordPress has made <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-rest-api\/\" rel=\"noopener\">its REST API<\/a> a massive focus lately, which opens up the door for developers to create all kinds of interesting apps based on WordPress. Going forward, you&#8217;ll be able to use all of your WordPress content in <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/what-is-headless-wordpress\/\" rel=\"noopener\">new and interesting ways<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>11. WordPress connects with your favorite third-party tools<\/h3>\n<p>With WordPress, you can still use your favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-email-marketing-plugins\/\">email marketing service<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/accept-payments-with-wordpress\/\">payment gateways<\/a>, and more. Thanks to its huge number of plugins, you can hook WordPress up to most popular third-party website services nowadays.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>12. But WordPress also lets you create a self-contained ecosystem<\/h3>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t like third-party services, WordPress also makes it easy to keep everything inside your dashboard. If you want to go the opposite direction from using third-party tools, you can build an email list, <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/mailpoet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">send newsletters<\/a>, and lots more&#8230;all without needing to leave the WordPress dashboard.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>13. WordPress follows accessibility standards<\/h3>\n<p>Accessibility is about making the web easier to use for individuals with physical or sensory impairments. The WordPress core team <a href=\"https:\/\/make.wordpress.org\/accessibility\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">puts a special emphasis<\/a> on making WordPress software accessible <strong>to everyone<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>14. WordPress hosts fun offline and online events<\/h3>\n<p>Every year, WordPress <a href=\"https:\/\/central.wordcamp.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hosts tons of WordCamps<\/a> and meetups around the world. These meetups provide an opportunity to network with like-minded individuals and learn new things about WordPress. While you might not take advantage right away, these fun events are a perk as you become more familiar with WordPress.<\/p>\n<p>However, while most of the events would normally take place in person, the worldwide situation has slowly shifted the meetups to the online space. This change has urged the organizers to adapt and schedule more virtual gatherings than ever.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>15. WordPress is committed to becoming even more user friendly<\/h3>\n<p>Partially in response to website builders like <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wix-vs-squarespace\/\">Squarespace and Wix<\/a>, WordPress has doubled down on making itself even more user friendly to beginners. That means WordPress is committed to becoming as easy to use as Squarespace&#8230;while maintaining its massive flexibility advantage.<\/p>\n<p>Features like the <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-customizer-how-to\/\">real-time WordPress Customizer<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-full-site-editing\/\">Full Site Editor<\/a> help you easily tweak your site even if you don&#8217;t know a thing about code.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>16. WordPress can guide missiles<\/h3>\n<p>There was this one time when WordPress was caught guiding missiles. <a href=\"https:\/\/dd32.id.au\/2010\/06\/12\/wordpress-what-cant-it-do\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Albeit on TV<\/a>, but still!<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>17. <a href=\"https:\/\/trends.builtwith.com\/cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">29% of the top 1 million sites<\/a> use WordPress<\/h3>\n\n\t\t<div class='ti-tweet-clear'><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class='ti-tweet_wrapper'>\n\t\t    \t<div class='ti-tweet_text'>\n\t\t    \t\t<a href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=29%25+of+the+top+1+million+sites+use+%23WordPress&via=themeisle&related=themeisle&url=https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/why-you-should-use-wordpress\/' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>29% of the top 1 million sites use #WordPress<\/a>\n\t\t    \t<\/div>\n\t\t    \t<div class='ti-tweet_sharebtn'>\n\t\t    \t<a href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=29%25+of+the+top+1+million+sites+use+%23WordPress&via=themeisle&related=themeisle&url=https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/why-you-should-use-wordpress\/' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>Click To Tweet \n\t\t    \t\t<span><\/span>\n\t\t    \t<\/a>\n\t\t    <\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<p>Let&#8217;s dive back into stats for one second because this one is interesting. While WordPress has a dominant overall market share, it&#8217;s also used by almost a third of top-tier sites as well. 29%, a plurality, of the top 1,000,000 most-trafficked sites in the world run on WordPress. No other content management system comes close.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>18.

Thanks to plugins like <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/all-in-one-seo-vs-yoast\/\">Yoast SEO and All in One SEO<\/a> (and others), it&#8217;s incredibly easy to SEO-optimize WordPress without needing to be a code genius. All you need to do is configure some basic settings and the plugins handle the rest.<\/p>\n<p>Better yet, some plugins analyze your content and offer suggestions. So even if you don&#8217;t know anything about SEO, you can still optimize your content by following a plugin&#8217;s recommendations.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>19.

build even more complicated designs without needing to know a single line of code. Then again, WordPress has advanced so much that nowadays you don&#8217;t even really need to rely on third-party page builders because&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>22. WordPress comes with a free page builder<\/h3>\n<p>In the last few years, WordPress has achieved new heights by integrating awesome functionality upgrades. The two biggest such developments have to be the <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-block-editor\/\">Block Editor<\/a> and the Full Site Editor (FSE).<\/p>\n<p>The Block Editor, which is now the default WordPress editor, allows you to build your content pages and posts with drag-and-drop functionality and in a fully visual manner. You can also access pre-made <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-block-patterns\/\">block patterns<\/a> that are easily inserted into your content in just a few clicks &#8211; saving you lots of time. Plus, there are tons of <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/best-block-plugins-for-wordpress\/\">add-on plugins for it<\/a> that you can use for expanding its features. (<em>Our favorite is <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/otter-blocks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Otter Blocks<\/a>.<\/em>)<\/p>\n<p>The Full Site Editor (FSE) functions very similarly to the Block Editor but is used for different purposes. Whereas the Block Editor is meant for creating your pages and posts, the Full Site Editor is designed for you to tweak the more global elements of your site (e.g., header, footer, main menu, colors, fonts, etc) and to create <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-reusable-blocks-guide\/\">reusable templates<\/a> (called &#8220;patterns&#8221;).<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 Note that unlike the Block Editor, FSE is only accessible if you use a <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-block-themes\/\">block theme<\/a>. Classic themes (i.e., themes that were created prior to the creation of FSE) are also customizable (though not to quite the same degree) via the WordPress Customizer.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n<h3>23. WordPress gives you control over the security of your website<\/h3>\n<p>WordPress is particularly awesome because it lets you control the security of your website. The popularity of this CMS brings with it lots of vulnerabilities and threats. But you can protect your content from hackers through the many options and extensive flexibility that WordPress has in store for you.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from using <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-security-plugins\/\">strong security plugins<\/a>, you can also manually apply <a
