Is WordPress Totally Free?

WordPress is a content management system (CMS) that allows users to create a website or blog from scratch, or to improve an existing website. WordPress is free and open source software released under the GPL.

WordPress is used by millions of people around the world, including many large organizations, such as The Guardian, Forbes, and The New York Times.

Despite being free and open source software, WordPress does have some features that require payment. For example, a premium version of WordPress offers additional security and performance enhancements.

Additionally, some third-party plugins and themes may require payment to be installed or used. Overall, however, WordPress is free and open source software, and there are no restrictions on how it can be used.
