How Popular is WordPress as a  CMS?

WordPress is incredibly powerful as a blog platform but can also be used as a CMS (content management system). I’ve often found that because of it’s easy setup it is often overlooked as being inferior to other CMS solutions.

With it’s expandability through the use of plugins WordPress has the ability to be even more powerful than some of the other open source solutions out there. With it’s recent rise in popularity, reputable brands and high end sites have finally begun to embrace WordPress as a CMS. As time goes on I predict the list will only grow.

Reputable Brands

High Quality Websites

High Quality Blogs
