WorldPress Market Share Statistic (2011-2018)

W3Techs reports that WordPress has reached the 31st place. Zero percent of all web sites on the web, even those without a CMS or with a user-defined CMS. If you restrict the dataset to sites with a well-known CMS, WordPress's market shares become even more powerful. WordPress has a 59.9% market-share of content managment tools on web sites with a well-known CMS.

Whilst much has been done with hosting website building utilities like Squarespace and Wix, the figures show that WordPress is not in jeopardy of being deposed in the near future! WordPress also has a dominating role at Joomla and Drupal, two other beloved self-hosted CMSs.
