Yesterday, WordPress co-founder Matt Mullenweg broke monumental news that WordPress now manages 25 percent of the Internet.

W3Tech broke down the Internet by popular content management systems, and WordPress far exceeded number two on the list, Joomla, at 2.8 percent.
The site also shows WordPress as the fastest growing content management system since Oct. 2015. WordPress appears to be growing significantly and steadily since 2011. In fact, it has grown 1.7 percent since Jan., which is substantial compared to the competition.
Mullenweg mentioned in his blog post that these numbers usually change with every month, but that it is pretty exciting WordPress supports one in four websites.
As Mullenweg’s tweet mentions, there is still a lot of Internet to claim. “The big opportunity is still the 57% of websites that don’t use any identifiable CMS yet, and that’s where I think there is still a ton of growth for us (and I’m also rooting for all the other open source CMSes),” Mullenweg said.
