WordPress recently announced that they hit 50 million blogs, about half of which are hosted on WordPress.com. The versatility of the platform allows it to be used for businesses of all sizes as their primary website, as well as by bloggers.
According to their stats page:
- Over 285 million people view more than 2.5 billion pages each month
- WordPress.com users produce about 500,000 new posts and 400,000 new comments on an average day.
- From TechCrunch to TED, CNN, and the National Football League, WordPress.com users span a broad range.

The growth of WordPress shows no signs of slowing down. As of 2011, over 100,000 new WordPresses are created every day. Blogs continue to be highly popular around the world, and we’re now seeing a trend that’s potentially even bigger: Publishers are using WordPress to create all kinds of sites beyond blogs – news sites, company sites, magazines, social networks, sports sites, and more.
