Still, its origins go back to 1993, when Rasmus Ledorf, a Danish-Canadian programmer and inventor of PHP, started working on it. Just a year after inventing it, Rasmus had PHP\u2019s alpha versions running on his website in 1994, so he could track who viewed his resume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since then, PHP has been getting stable releases and has made it to version 8.2.7 at the time of writing, and today, it has a cult following. Coders love its backend and scripting capabilities, which is why PHP deserves even more recognition than it has.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"facts-and-stats\"><strong>Interesting PHP Facts and Stats<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"gutenberg-info-block\">\n  \n\n<ul>\n<li>Out of all websites whose server-side programming languages we know, <strong>77.5% use PHP<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Millions of websites use PHP, of which <strong>almost 34 million are live, with 54 million using it before<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>PHP version 7.4<\/strong> is the most popular one, and it\u2019s currently <strong>on 31.8% of all PHP websites<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The <strong>PHP<\/strong> programming language <strong>powers 45% of all internet websites<\/strong>, as WordPress uses it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PHP\u2019s <strong>market share<\/strong> is at <strong>21.5%<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>65% of all PHP websites use Nginx and Apache<\/strong>, accounting for 34.3% and 31.7%, respectively.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It\u2019s the <strong>most essential general-use programming language<\/strong> in the world.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>On average, <strong>PHP developers make around $95,000<\/strong> a year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Similarly, <strong>Google\u2019s PHP developer jobs offer a salary of nearly $200,000<\/strong> a year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Almost <strong>1.8 million PHP websites are based in the USA<\/strong>, with Germany close behind.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"general-PHP-statistics\">General PHP statistics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve learned about the most interesting PHP statistics, you can read ahead to learn ten more facts, as we\u2019ve prepared a list of the 20 most intriguing PHP statistics showing this programming language\u2019s magnitude and influence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. <strong>77.5% of all websites with known server-side languages use PHP.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>PHP is one of the world\u2019s most widely used programming languages, with around four-fifths of all sites with known backend programming languages using PHP at their core.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><sub><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\">Source<\/mark>: <a href=\"https:\/\/w3techs.com\/technologies\/details\/pl-php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"6405\">W3Techs<\/a><\/sub><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. <strong>33.7 million currently existing websites use PHP.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>That 77.5% amounts to almost 34 million live websites using PHP.
