Each year WordPress puts out a survey to be taken by users, extenders, site builders, and contributors to help provide feedback to improve and enhance your WordPress site. The builders of WordPress use the survey to understand who uses the software and how it’s being used. This survey also helps leaders in the WordPress open source project learn more about the experiences that the contributors encounter.
If you have interest in helping influence the strategy and direction of the WordPress Project, taking the survey is a great way to assist in this. This survey is oftentimes shared in the public project blogs as well as the annual State of the Word address. The 2021 survey can be taken in German, Japanese, Spanish, Russian, French as well as English. To ensure that we reach maximum participation please consider sharing this survey on social media, Slack or anyone you know that uses WordPress.
This survey is relatively short with an additional survey for WordPress contributors. This additional survey has a lot of open-ended questions for extra feedback. Because of repetitiveness of previous surveys the 2022 survey is going to have a new format. Hopefully this new format will welcome new values and different perspectives.
Below are a couple of the open-ended questions that are in the survey:
What’s the best thing about WordPress?
Select three essential plugins from the 20 most popular.
For your next website project, which platform would you choose?
