As the leading content management system, WordPress powers more than 30% of the world's websites. What makes WordPress so popular? I'll break down the benefits of using WordPress in the six points below.
What is WordPress?

Before explaining what WordPress is, let's first look at the three elements that make up a website: hosting, a domain, and a content management system.
If you think of your whole website as your home, the domain is your home's address, the hosting is your house, and the content management system is the housekeeper who manages your home's furnishings and decor.
Domain
Every website has an IP address made up of a string of numbers. For example, Google's IP address is 216.58.216.164.
But a string of numbers is hard to remember, which is why domains were created. A domain is like a website's address and makes it easy for us to remember. Google.com is a domain that points to the IP address 216.58.216.164.
Hosting
Next comes hosting. It's like your house: a space used to store and run your website.
Because maintenance costs are enormous, hosting providers set up many servers together in a single facility, and people can rent these servers as they wish.
