Pete “Naked WordPress (without plugins) is not competitive to Wix, Weebly, Squarespace, etc.” Platforms such as Wix, Weebly or Squarespace are not blog-centric, unlike WordPress. That’s why they have gained a lot of traction in recent years. Judging by the official WordPress survey results, blogs are no longer the next big thing and yet core developers seem completely obsessed with them. The good news are that WordPress has lots of possibilities of being a great CMS or application framework (will the JSON API ever make it into core?) if core developers decide to shift their focus.
