CMS(Content Management System)，當一套系統越來越走向CMS時，它的穩定度也相對得更好，WordPress開始走向CMS。內容管理是許多站長喜歡的架站方式，可以快速架起一個網站，透過佈景主題可以打造自己風格的網站，這點艾德相信WordPress已經百分之百可以達到這個需求。
2009/11/17，WordPress贏得了開源內容管理系統的總冠軍獎項，這對於WordPress來說是一個很重要的里程碑。在官方部落格可以看到創辦人Matt是如此的興奮。
I was very excited last week to learn that WordPress has been awarded the Overall Best Open Source CMS Award in the 2009 Open Source CMS Awards. This is a landmark for us, as it is the first time we’ve won this award, and it marks a shift in the public perception of WordPress, from blog software to full-featured CMS. No small contest, the Open Source CMS Awards received over 12,000 nominations and more than 23,000 votes across five categories.
這項榮譽可以讓WordPress更茁壯，更多企業用戶選擇它。
