Verdict
WordPress and Sellinam both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 90% of Sellinam's written reviews are positive against 37% of WordPress's. Sellinam also leads on iOS requirement (12.2 vs 17.0). WordPress's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (22K vs 5). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
