WordPress Runs Almost Half of the Web’s Top Blogs
Recently a study was released by Pingdom regarding the content management systems (CMS) used by the web's top blogs and, perhaps not surprisingly, almost half of those sites were powered by Wordpress. 48 of the top 100 are using Wordpress as their backend system, while Movable Type, the second most used CMS, powers only 7 of the top 100 blogs.
