What is WordPress?
WordPress is the world's most popular website building tool, bar none. It powers over 43% of websites globally, meaning more than a quarter of the sites you visit may be created with WordPress. From personal blogs to Fortune 500 companies (such as Sony Music and Time Magazine's official website), everyone uses it.
Simply put, WordPress is a content management system that allows you to easily build and manage websites, blogs, or online stores without writing complex code.
You can think of WordPress as your phone's operating system (such as iOS or Android). Just as an operating system lets you run various apps (like WeChat or TikTok) to customize your phone's functions, WordPress provides a foundational platform that lets you customize any website you can imagine through various "themes" and "plugins."
