Some while ago, I was looking for a similar method where I can find "new" created wordpress sites in a specific niche but could not get any success. However, if you want to find only wordpress sites or check if a website is generated by wordpress, there are several methods for that:

Google Search

A lot of sites built on WP show a footer credit stating "Powered by WordPress." To find such sites, Google: "Powered by WordPress"

Also you can find a particular type of website you are looking for by using the `site:` operator. Example : site:example.com "powered by WordPress"

Another way is looking at their URL address. Most, if not all, WP sites have a URL that contains particular words such as "wp-content" or "wp-admin". To find these sites, you can Google: inurl:wp-content or inurl:wp-admin


Online Tools

https://builtwith.com/: With this tool, you can check if a site built with WP or not.

https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/wappalyzer-technology-pro/gppongmhjkpfnbhagpmjfkannfbllamg?hl=en&pli=1: It's the same as BuiltWith but in an chrome extension form. It checks what technology is running a website.


Directories Specific to WordPress

https://wordpress.org/showcase/: WordPress.org have a showcase of various sites that have been built using WordPress. You can view sites by category as well.

Hope this helps :)

Well, there are around 478 million sites that use WordPress, so that would be a hell of a directory. Forget that thought of a directory.

Someone shared a list of all registered names. It was 260+ millions names. Is it possible that multiple WordPress sites hosted in the same name as sub domains.

It might have been sorted with https://builtwith.com I also remember a list some times ago in the forum. Regarding subdomains I really don´t know what you might be talking about.

I mean the list was all existing domains. And it was 260m. So how can the number of WordPress sites bigger than this number as you have said 478 million WordPress sites? It's must be including WordPress sites in subdomains. Right
