I honestly thought that WordPress was declining when I saw what Framer and others are making, but it's not going to happen, and here is why:
- Block themes are super easy to build. My guess is that we will see a bunch of new sexy themes based on the most popular templates from Webflow, Framer, and others.
- Evident rise of Open Source. WordPress is Open Source, and you can host 1000s of sites for free. You're not limited to a number of pages, CMS collections, domains, or whatever.
- Super easy to Host. You can host it yourself on a $4/month Hetzner cloud instance. If you are not familiar with Linux, servers, etc you can use a tool like @WPJackcom
- WordPress is extendable. Over 80.000 plugins are available in the WP org repository. There is 99% chance you'll find what you need there. If not, you can create your own plugin or hire someone to do it. There are millions of developers with WP experience. Try to extend Webflow 😜
People who complain about WordPress are usually complaining that they need 50 plugins for every site and many of them are paid.
But if you know what you're doing, you won't need more than 10 plugins.
On my sites, I always install the following:
- Yoast - for SEO
- Wordfence - firewall
- ACF - for pSEO
- Site Kit by Google - Analytics and Search Console
- WPS Hide Login - hide wp-admin page
- Smush - for optimizing images
- W3 Total Cache - caching and speed
All these plugins are free.
All you need to do is find one great theme like Blocksy or Ollie and learn how to work with it.
Even WP development became easier with block themes and new tools.
Soon, I'll be starting a new series where I develop WordPress block themes inspired by the most popular templates from Webflow and Framer. And it'll be all open sourced 🙂🚀
