The question "What is WordPress?" is one of those questions that can be answered in less than 20 words, or more than 10,000...depending on how far you want to take it and what you want to know.
Wikipedia says:
"WordPress (WordPress.org) is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) written in PHP and paired with a MySQL or MariaDB database."
But what does that mean?
Basically, WordPress is a point-and-click site builder that operates on a web hosting server, which is essentially a powerful computer running software like PHP and a database that stores all the information.
Point-and-click means you can build a website with just basic knowledge using your own PC. The real beauty of WordPress, however, is that unlike other platforms like Weebly, Shopify, or Wix, WordPress websites can be manipulated—coded to do nearly anything you want. The flexibility of having a website designed in WordPress is literally unlimited. Of course, to do this, you would need some knowledge of code, but the good news is that Ed Hosting's WordPress Design team can help you with that!
WordPress now has a whopping 35% of the global market, meaning 1 out of every 3 sites you visit is built on WordPress.
