One fact that I read about WordPress is that It has more than 20 Billion page views per month is really surprise for me because I thought that people prefer watching content on video streaming platform like YouTube and busy in several social media but the way people respond about WordPress is really great and give me a hope that blogging is very secure in future.

I have my website https://www.khalsa-website-designers.net which is made in WordPress and in my opinion, WordPress is the reason why my website succeeds and today it is the number one website on Google.

WordPress’s Plugins and amazing management make it the king of the blogging platform.
