WordPress is an open source project that has several plugins, themes, and options for nearly every kind of website. Some common types of sites you can build with WordPress are: e-commerce sites with WooCommerce, a personal blog, a site for your business, an online directory, a social networking website, a discussion forum, a reviews site, a real estate website, a question and answer site, a wiki, a membership website, a micro-blogging website, a classified ad site, a news site, a site for online courses, an affiliate site, just to name a few! There are also many themes that you can choose to install for a wedding site, a special event site, or any other site you can imagine. This is in part why WordPress is the most popular site-building application.
