The world’s leading content management system (CMS) has announced a 100-year plan. That means if you subscribe to it, your website or blog will assumably live longer than you. The company said that this overarchingly lengthy subscription is targeted at families who want to keep their digital content for long, for 100 years, of course.
WordPress said in its blog, “We’re thrilled to announce something truly new and exceptional: a plan designed exclusively for those seeking the ultimate in security and longevity for their digital presence.”
From the way WordPress is described, it’s meant for families or larger organizational bodies who wish to give longevity to their online data and not meant for everyday regular bloggers or website owners.
