At the center of WordPress’s success has been its ease of use, clean styling, and open-source ethos, as outlined in a VERY early version of WordPress.org.
The beauty of WordPress is that it works for corporations (driving the likes of Wired, CNN, and The New York Times), as well as for smaller blogs and businesses.
