I hear this all the time when people are talking about old-school static HTML sites versus newer WordPress sites. They say it loud and proud as if it were a law of nature like gravity or something.
Google Loves WordPress!
The truth is (as far as I know) that there is no real data that says Google prefers static WordPress versus HTML (or vice-versa). There is no reason that they should care -- and I don't think that they do.
People say "Google loves WordPress" because they see WordPress because they see WordPress sites doing well in Google. The question is this: is this correlation, or causation? In other words, are these sites doing well because of WordPress, or for some other reason.
