WordPress is the largest CMS (content management system) in the world: according to data from W3Techs (as of May 2023)<\/a> , the publisher represents more than 60% of all platforms in this field<\/strong> . Soon after we have Shopify, with more than 5%, and Wix<\/a> with 3.7%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s go there?\ud83d\udc47<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a chatbot for WordPress?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"What<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A chatbot is computer software that simulates human conversations, whether written or spoken<\/strong> . This tool allows people to interact on websites and apps in a way similar to communicating in reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike online (or live) chat, a chatbot does not need a human being on the other side of the screen<\/strong> to give answers or communicate with the user. In fact, this type of chatbot is not just about customer service, it also helps with marketing and sales<\/strong> \u2013 and many tools are focused on just that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently chatbots can work through artificial intelligence , automated rules, natural language processing or machine learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, when we talk about chatbot for WordPress, we are referring to installing these software on the publisher<\/strong> . After all, this CMS has several proprietary and third-party chatbot plugins available for you to choose from, and installation is easy and quick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udfafThere are some other reasons why consumers tend to prefer chatbots. I’ll tell you more in our content: Why do many Customers Prefer Chatbots to Salespeople? <\/strong>, be sure to check it out. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does a WordPress chatbot work?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I already gave a slight spoiler above, but chatbots for WordPress work through plugins available in the CMS library<\/strong> . But you can also choose to do this manually, via code.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh, and we also can’t forget the alternative of external integrations<\/strong> . For this, you would need chatbots that provide APIs and tools to integrate them into different platforms, such as Dialogflow, IBM Watson Assistant or Microsoft Bot Framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, we must remember that chatbots can act with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
