global-Wordpress-Awesomeness I’m sure you have heard WordPress is just a blogging platform for small websites.

While that was true in the past, that is far from the truth today.

As of March 2012, WordPress powers more than 72.4 Million sites on the web making it the worlds most popular content management system to date.

It is now a fully fledged content management system and is capable of running massive websites that get millions of hits a day.
