The Big 4-0
According to W3Techs, WordPress has reached 40% of the top 10 million websites globally. It holds 64.3% of the total CMS market share. π
Growth in 2020 was 4.3%, exceeding the growth rate for every previous year. Since the beginning of 2021, WordPress has outpaced the growth of Shopify and Squarespace as well, which are the only other platforms in the top ten that are growing. π
WooCommerce also seems to be among the βfastest-growing content management systems” too, although this definition can be a little confusing since it’s a plugin for WordPress.
