WordPress 3.0 – 10 Million Downloads and Counting 0

Jul22

About a month ago I posted about how fast WordPress 3.0 was being downloaded and there was a terrific discussion about the sheer amount of data that was being grabbed to get at the 3.0 version of WordPress.? We even had some comments as to why it was being downloaded at that scale. Well as of today the download counter reads that it has been downloaded just over 10.3 million times since it was released last month and the counter keeps rolling along! So what is it that makes the WordPress platform so popular?? What is it that drives people to download it over 10 million times? If you had the opportunity to talk to a non WordPress user what would you tell them about it to show that it is worth downloading and putting to use for a website?

I found that the latest and greatest update to the best blogging platform does not pack in much features which the end user will find useful

I have been thinking about this post for a while.? It really started to come to me after I went through a server move of my own website which I discussed on this site last month – Moving Your WordPress Site and Database . I did a lot of manual cleaning of my database to get rid of orphaned tables that had been in the database since the day I first set up a WordPress based website
