Word­Press

Word­Press is a state of the art pub­lish­ing plat­form with a focus on aes­thet­ics, web stan­dards, and usabil­ity. Word­Press is both free and price­less at the same time.

Word­Press started in 2003 with a sin­gle bit of code to enhance the typog­ra­phy of every­day writ­ing and with fewer users than you can count on your fin­gers and toes. Since then it has grown to be the largest self-hosted blog­ging tool in the world, used on hun­dreds of thou­sands of sites and seen by tens of mil­lions of peo­ple every day.

Word­Press is an Open Source project, which means there are hun­dreds of peo­ple all over the world work­ing on it. (More than most com­mer­cial platforms).
