Back to the Board

Built to empower the WordPress community.

An open board designed to bring radical transparency to product discovery and support WordPress education.

01. Supporting WordPress Education & Builders

WP Spots is built for the WordPress community—our foundational goal is to support aspiring developers, students, and indie creators who need educational resources to build the future of WordPress.

Educational Support & Learning Grants

We connect learners with course sponsorships, developer tooling, WordCamp tickets, and educational materials for WordPress builders.

Our community disbursement framework connects indie creators and learners with educational resources.

Are you learning WordPress, building your first plugin, or in need of educational resources and course assistance? Fill out this form to be considered for upcoming community support allocations.

02. Why Visibility Belongs in the Open

The official WordPress directory ranks products using opaque, unstated factors. A solo developer or startup building a faster form builder, a cleaner backup tool, or an AI block today has virtually no path to organic discovery against legacy incumbents with millions of installs accumulated over a decade.

The Incumbent Trap:

Legacy plugins get the clicks because they have the rank. They have the rank because they get the clicks. New makers cannot break the loop no matter how superior their product is.

03. Giving Deserving Makers the Spotlight

WP Spots solves discovery by turning position into an open, honest canvas:

Public Clicks Counted

High-resolution brand tiles packed on a shared canvas, highlighting the WordPress ecosystem.
Open & Permissionless
Empowering WordPress creators, agencies, and indie devs to showcase their products openly.
