Ask HN: Anyone running a substantial business on wordpress?
i m sure it is there but wanted to get views from HN. Are there businesses (software/SAAS) that run predominantly on wordpress and are also large enough ? If you are such a business owner, would love to hear from you. If you have helped such businesses as freelancer, would also like your opinions.
- thenomad 12y agoDefine "substantial"? I've been involved with a variety of businesses that use Wordpress as part of their business, ranging from $xx,xxx a year businesses to $xx,xxx,xxx a year businesses. :) Also, by "run on Wordpress", do you mean "use Wordpress as their blogging platform and/or for hosting landing pages" or something more?
- saluki 12y agoI have clients running blogs/content related sites on Wordpress some with revenue over $300k/yr. SaaS/app clients are on Rails or Laravel. I wouldn't recommend building SaaS or an app on top of WP. Go with a framework Rails/Laravel.
