Because its really hard to collect enough data concerning this topic – we’ve decided to demonstrate the geographic popularity of CMSs turning to Google Trends.

WordPress

Due to the fact that WordPress powers over 60 million websites all around the globe, big chances are that website owners in almost all countries all around the world (with an active Internet population) might be using WordPress to power their websites.

USA and Canada tops the list from American continents, where Brazil has the top activity from Latin America. In terms of European countries – Spain, United Kingdom and Germany top the list. When it comes to Asian continent, WordPress is the most widely-used in India, Indonesia and Pakistan. One more thing to be mentioned here is that Chinese people has very low interest in WordPress.
