pub vs responsive

pub is used by more websites in our catalog: 2,530 use pub and 169 use responsive.

responsive sites have the higher median Ahrefs Domain Rating (pub: 8, responsive: 17).

Between 2026-06 and 2026-07, pub went from 0.26% to 0.29% of all tracked sites, while responsive went from 0.02% to 0.02%. pub is gaining ground faster in our index.

No. A site runs a single WordPress theme, so pub and responsive are mutually exclusive.

Adoption is counted from Site Stats Database's own crawl; Domain Rating comes from Ahrefs and traffic from DataForSEO. Figures reflect the sites we track and refresh at least monthly.
