In April, we launched our AI website builder, opening the door for anyone to turn their ideas into a WordPress.com website — no expertise required. We’ve been listening to your feedback and regularly rolling out improvements and new features that put more creative power in your hands.
Whether you’re dreaming up a business, building your portfolio, or sharing your passion, our goal is to make website creation inspiring, personal, and truly yours — with all the flexibility and ownership WordPress.com is known for. Here’s a quick look at what’s new — so you can spend less time building, and more time growing your ideas
Improved color palettes and font pairings
You asked for more customization, so we delivered! The AI website builder now offers an expanded range of color palettes and designer-curated font pairings — instantly generated to fit your vibe, style, or brand. Personalizing your site is faster and easier, whether you want bold, minimal, playful, or classic — all without any design experience.
Hero sections that stand out
Your homepage hero area is your website’s first impression — and now, our AI website builder creates even more modern, eye-catching hero areas. Instantly get modern layouts, bold headers, flexible intros, and cover images that help your homepage make a strong first impression.
Smarter, custom logos
Site logos just got a big upgrade. Our AI website builder now generates cleaner, more customizable site logos using the latest AI models — including playful cartoon styles, niche aesthetics, bold typography, or anything in between. Just describe the vibe you want, and you’ll get a logo that’s truly yours.
Better images
No more scrambling for the right photo. Now you can whip up fresh images, cover photos, or hero backgrounds for your site in seconds — just by describing what you want (“a cozy café at sunset” or “vibrant tech workspace”), and the AI helps you find or create visuals that fit your vibe.
Edit more, in more places
You can now use the AI website builder to edit your site’s templates — not just individual pages. That means you can easily update your homepage, about page, or any template, and make global changes to layouts, colors, or fonts — all from one place, without jumping between menus. With full template editing, you get even more flexibility and creative control across your whole site — no extra steps required.
What’s next?
We’re committed to making our AI website builder even better. That means regular bug fixes, smarter intelligence, better taste, and an even smoother experience, all designed to help you go from idea to live website with minimal effort. Have a feature you’d love to see? Let us know — your voice shapes where we go next.

WordPress.com News 
Great, I mainly use it for creating images. Thanks for everything.
Glad to hear you’re finding the image creation helpful. It’s a powerful way to bring your site to life!
As someone who uses writing to explore themes of love, longing, and transformation, I’d love to see the AI website builder evolve to include more expressive tools tailored for storytellers and poets. Features like customizable layouts for personal reflections, integrated quote blocks with elegant formatting, and mood-based visual themes could help deepen the emotional impact of a site. Writing isn’t just content—it’s connection. Let’s give creatives the space to let that connection breathe beautifully online.”
Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful vision. You’re absolutely right — content is connection. The good news is that customizable layouts, elegant quote blocks, and mood-driven themes are all possible with the AI website builder and the built-in tools on WordPress.com. Just describe your vision, and the builder will help bring it to life. Happy creating!
Thanks for the tip! That’s great to hear about the customization options.
For a follow-up idea, you might also consider building in a community element from the start. Instead of just having a comment section, you could use a tool to create interactive polls or quizzes to get visitors involved. It’s a great way to turn a passive audience into an active community and really drive home that “content is connection” idea. Just a thought!
You’re welcome! I agree, polls and quizzes are a great way to encourage interaction with a low barrier to entry. WordPress.com includes a Poll block that makes it easy to add one to your site.
How was your AI website tool trained? Using what data?
Hey there! Thanks for your question. We use state-of-the-art models from leading AI partners like OpenAI to offer the best experience to our customers.
I just had a quick try with this AI website builder and loved it. If I created the same blog that I currently have, is there any way of transferring all my posts, pages, media, etc., to the new site? Also, is there a way I can transfer followers, or is that a matter of notifying them all about the new site?
Hi Hugh, so glad to hear you’re loving the AI website builder. To migrate your content over to the new design, the best way is via the Import Content option. Please feel free to reach out to support for help shifting your followers over seamlessly.
I tried this AI website; it is amazing!
I tried it. I asked for a one-page website, but kept building a whole site. Other than that, it is excellent.
Thanks for giving it a try — and for the feedback. Input like this helps us as we continually improve the AI website builder.
