FAQ

WordPress — frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions our readers ask most.

WordPress.org is free and open-source. You only pay for hosting and any premium themes or plugins you choose.

No. Modern block themes and page builders let you build a full WordPress site without touching code.

Managed WordPress hosts like Kinsta, WP Engine or SiteGround offer the best performance-to-price ratio for most sites.

Quality matters more than count. Keep only well-maintained plugins you actually use and audit them every few months.
