17 April 2023 2 mins read

We’re proud to be part of the vibrant WordPress community, keep reading to find out more about its 20th birthday.

2023 marks the 20th year of WordPress, the most popular CMS used by millions of businesses and individuals across the globe.

According to colorlib ‘810 million websites use WordPress’ which accounts for a whopping ‘43% of all websites’ that are online today.

Over the last 20 years, WordPress has developed considerably and its community has continued to grow with it. There are a diverse and widely skilled collection of people from all around the world who are united by the spirit of open source and the freedoms that WordPress provides.

As a WordPress VIP partner, we are always working towards our continued commitment to the WP community, whether it’s attending the amazing WordCamp events or working on our very own personalisation plugin to help users access extra features.

We’re very proud to be part of such a creative and innovative community and we can’t wait to find out more about the 20th anniversary celebrations.

You can keep up to date with the latest announcements by visiting the official 20th anniversary website here.

Let’s celebrate! Throughout the beginning of 2023, leading up to the official anniversary date of WordPress’s launch (May 27, 2003), a number of different events will celebrate this important milestone, reflect on the journey, and look toward the future.
