WordPress has transformed from a blogging platform since 2003 into a dominant content management system. The platform now powers 43% of the web, with particularly strong adoption among global enterprises seeking innovative applications of the technology.
Big Bite’s Survey Initiative
Big Bite, an enterprise WordPress agency founded in 2010, is conducting the State of Enterprise WordPress 2023 survey to gather insights about how large organizations use WordPress. The survey examines budgets, publishing processes, and custom functionality needs.
The UK-based agency specializes in serving complex enterprises like The Times, New York Post, and Amnesty International. According to CEO Iain McPherson, “Big Bite specializes in working with multi-faceted enterprise organizations that have lots of contributors, lots of content, and lots of challenges.”
Evolving Enterprise Needs
While fundamental organizational needs remain consistent, technology solutions have evolved significantly. Where agencies once created custom templates to streamline workflows, they now leverage artificial intelligence to boost efficiency. The gap between what enterprises need and what WordPress can deliver continues to narrow.
How Agencies Stay Current
Big Bite maintains awareness of changing enterprise demands through active client engagement and discovery sessions that reveal how end-users create content and collaborate. McPherson emphasized that “knowing your customer and understanding their needs, wants, and motivations is crucial for any business.”
