Since 2013, Post Status has been a one-of-a-kind member-supported community within and for the larger community of WordPress professionals.

We’re a community of solopreneurs, agencies, small—to mid-sized businesses, and large enterprises. We’re leaders and followers at all stages of our careers and from all walks of life.

Post Status’ Slack is the water cooler for all of us — an entry point that welcomes newcomers and the underrepresented. It’s a place where friendships, mentoring relationships, and deals get made in the spirit of winning together.

Our goal is to guide, connect, and support the people and businesses who make up the WordPress community and sustain the Open Web, our rich common resource. From our very beginnings, we’ve built our offerings with professional WordPressers in mind. We’re here for anyone seeking insights, analysis, guidance, and a community centered around the WordPress ecosystem.

Our Mission

Post Status helps businesses and individuals thrive in the open-source ecosystem. We provide a supportive network for connection, education, and collaboration among tech professionals dedicated to an open web.

Our History

Post Status launched on January 21st, 2013. Initially, it was a link-sharing blog where we selected the best articles published in WordPress and larger web tech communities. Eventually, Post Status became a more typical blog with original content. On January 21st, 2015—our two-year milestone—we launched the membership component: the Post Status Club. Next, David Bisset and Dan Knauss joined the team.

In January 2020, Cory Miller joined Post Status as an equal partner with its founder, Brian Krogsgard. In early 2021, Cory and Lindsey Miller became the sole owners and publishers of Post Status. In August 2023, they were joined by Joost de Valk and Marieke van de Rakt. In early 2024, Michelle Frechette became the executive director of Post Status, which she is still today. In early 2025, Joost and Marieke bought Post Status and became the sole owners, and immediately turned Post Status into a self-sustaining non-profit, which it is today, as a Netherlands-based foundation. The board of that foundation currently consists of Joost de Valk, Juliette Reinders-Folmer, and Karim Marucchi.
