Profitability

We'll continue by looking at the most sold or profitable application types in the PHP world. As we have targeted this survey to PHP programming companies (that mostly create websites), you might note that the "website factor" might be overhauled. However, enterprise management web applications were also taken into account in the Intranet and ERP/CRM responses.

Most sold application type

As we can see, company presentation sites and Content Management Systems (CMS) represent most of the revenues. This reflects the reality of the LAMP (Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP) approach, where PHP is mainly used to rapidly create dynamic websites.

Most profitable application type

On the other hand, the most profitable application types are company presentation sites and Intranet applications, and this reflects where PHP is used in large enterprises - to develop internal web applications used to manage various departments or for other internal reasons.
