WordPress for Government - A Problem of Perception

Read Original

This article examines the surprisingly low adoption of WordPress for government websites compared to Drupal, despite WordPress's massive market share. It argues the barrier is not technical but perceptual, debunking common enterprise misconceptions about scalability, security, and professionalism. The piece includes data comparisons and discusses how WordPress's ease-of-use reputation may hinder its acceptance for 'serious' enterprise use.
