Problems and support are somebody else's business.

For example, I don't want to be IT support for my company's WordPress installation.

I am willing to pay $100 per month so that I can tell the VP of Marketing "Please go talk to the nice people at <Wordpress Provider> about why the two buttons in that theme don't align to the same right margin. Tell them to send me an email if something needs analyzed on our side. KTHXBYE."

I also don't want to have to navigate the blizzard of AWS required in order to implement something that won't fall over when 3 canaries and pigeon decide to bang on it--let alone if HN features it.

I imagine that the CMS space is quite similar.



Yeah, but Wordpress is an open market, it's vast and very competitive. Other CMSes don't look attractive in that regard
