[WordPress](https://www.wordpress.org) is an open source content management system (CMS) that can be used to create websites, blogs, and other applications. Over 40% of the web uses WordPress from blogs to major news websites. WordPress can be run on a few different Azure services: [AKS](/azure/mysql/flexible-server/tutorial-deploy-wordpress-on-aks), [Virtual Machines](/azure/virtual-machines/linux/tutorial-lamp-stack#install-wordpress), and App Service. For a full list of WordPress options on Azure, see [WordPress on Azure Marketplace](https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/marketplace/apps?search=wordpress&page=1)
