Ferns vs WordPress
The best WordPress alternative for AI website building
No hosting, no plugins, no maintenance. Just your site.
What is WordPress?
WordPress powers 40% of the web, but it comes with a steep learning curve. Hosting, plugins, security updates, theme conflicts — it's a full-time job for a simple website.
Common WordPress frustrations
- Need hosting, a domain, SSL, and a theme before you start
- Plugin conflicts and security vulnerabilities
- Constant updates that can break your site
- Learning curve for non-technical users
Why teams switch to Ferns
- Zero setup — describe your business, get a site
- Hosting, SSL, and CDN included automatically
- No plugins to manage, no updates to install
- AI handles design, copy, and structure for you
The verdict
WordPress is powerful but complex. If you need a blog with 50 plugins, use WordPress. If you need a professional site that just works, use Ferns.
