New Tool Launch: Instantly Detect if a Website Runs on WordPress
At WPMissionControl, our mission is to make website monitoring and security accessible to every site owner. Today, we’re excited to announce the release of our new WordPress Detector tool, available at wpmissioncontrol.com/wordpress-detector.
This free tool allows anyone to instantly check whether a website is powered by WordPress — in just one click.
Why a WordPress Detector?
With over 40% of websites built on WordPress, it’s the world’s most popular CMS. But many site owners and even developers aren’t always sure whether a given site uses WordPress. That knowledge is critical:
- For businesses: to understand what technology powers a partner’s or competitor’s website.
- For agencies: to qualify leads more quickly.
- For site owners: to confirm whether their developer really built their site on WordPress.
How It Works
Simply enter any website URL into the WordPress Detector, and the tool will analyze the site’s code to confirm whether it runs WordPress. The results are instant, clear, and free.
Widget on Our Homepage
We’ve also added the WordPress Detector widget directly to our homepage. This means visitors can immediately self-qualify:
- If the tool confirms their website runs on WordPress → they can take full advantage of WPMissionControl’s complete monitoring and security suite, including health checks, file integrity verification, AI-powered malware scans, and security badges.
- If the tool shows their site is not WordPress → they can still benefit from our core monitoring services like uptime checks, SSL monitoring, domain expiration alerts, and even a public status page (with limited functionality).
This way, every website owner gets access to valuable tools — while WordPress sites unlock the full potential of WPMissionControl.
More Than Just a Detector
The WordPress Detector joins our suite of free tools, including the SSL Checker. Together, they reflect our philosophy: provide real value first, then invite users to explore premium monitoring and protection.
