duda vs WordPress

THE WORDPRESS PLATFORM HAS BECOME OUTDATED

WordPress had been around the block and back. The platform was initially set up so that anyone could build, create, and upload their ideas. While it may be useful, there are many quirks behind this kind of a process. Every few months, WordPress creates a newer version of its platform, breaking many themes and plugins that have become outdated. This is because the individual creators of these themes are not keeping up with updating their themes and designs.

POPULAR THEMES WILL BREAK YOUR WEBSITE

Creators have all the power when it comes to designing new themes for WordPress as it is an open-source free platform. However, WordPress holds the power to suspend any theme they see does not follow guideline rules. Last month, WordPress suspended the popular theme, Astra. Over 1 million people have used Astra within some part of the website. Due to the suspension, around 500,000 websites broke down and were no longer accessible. But why exactly would WordPress suspend Astra?

Let’s come back to the power creators hold. Brainstorm Force, the publishers of the Astra theme, were accused of adding an illegal affiliate backlink to the theme. This means that in the process of building Astra, they added a link within the code that links one website to another. In order to prohibit this from occurring, WordPress suspended the theme as a whole and it is no longer available for use. What makes you think that this won’t happen again? There could be thousands of themes headed for suspension.

INSTABILITY AND SECURITY ISSUES
Because WordPress is made up of outdated software, it carries many vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities leave many security gaps for hackers to easily manipulate. In 2018, WordPress was revealed to have accounted for 90% of hacked websites. Do you really want to put your website in the hands of these hackers?
