What is WordPress used for?
WordPress is a content management system (CMS) that allows you to host and build websites. WordPress contains plugin architecture and a template system, so you can customize any website to fit your business, blog, portfolio, or online store.


What is the difference between WordPress and Wix?
The main difference between Wix and WordPress is their technical approach: while all Wix packages include hosting and tech support, WordPress is an open-source platform and requires you to take care of this yourself. You need to find a web host (check out cheap web hosting options), and install it on your own webspace.

WordPress is far superior to Wix as a web publishing platform for any kind of website. While Wix offers an easy-to-use website builder, you can accomplish a lot more with WordPress over the long run.


Do large companies use WordPress?
Big brands know this, and that's just one of the reasons why large corporations use WordPress as their content management system. W3 Techs have found that 59% of the world's top one million most visited websites in the world are using WordPress over other CMS, making it the most popular platform of choice!


Is Ghost better than WordPress?
Ghost and WordPress approach the act of blogging in two very different ways. The biggest difference is that, with Ghost, you're blogging in Markdown — which is essentially shorthand HTML. With WordPress, you're working with a more approachable WYSIWYG editor. Because Ghost is powered by a modern technology stack using Node.js – it's fast. Really, really, really, ridiculously fast. Independent tests have found Ghost to be up to 1,900% faster than WordPress.
