'''Wikidot.com''' is the worlds' largest [[wiki farm]],<ref name=About>[https://www.wikidot.com/about About Wikidot.com]; ''www.wikidot.com''; Wikidot Inc.; accessed 6 December 2021.</ref> running 120,000 sites.  Their mission is to provide {{tag|Free wiki farm|free}} and professional [[wiki]] publishing, collaboration, and communication solutions to anyone who needs it and wants it.

Each wikidot site gets a sub-domain on <tt>.wikidot.com</tt> (eg <tt>mywiki.wikidot.com</tt>).  There is also a possibility to map a custom domain for free (eg <tt>mywiki.com</tt> – if previously registered by the wiki site [[owner]]).  One can optionally allow Wikidot to display {{tag|advertising}} on their wiki site and get 80% of revenue.  Features include: {{tag|RSS}} import/export, private RSS feeds for [[user]]s (notifications and watched items), RSS for page changes and forum, customisable themes (every item can be styled with {{tag|Cascading Style Sheets}} (CSS)), advanced forum for each site.  Custom page hierarchies, searching, advanced page [[edit]] locking (full/section/append), [[Banning|blocking]] users and [[IP address]]es, and private messages between users.

Also available as a free downloadable {{tag|Wiki Engine|wiki engine}}, released under version 3 of the {{tag|GNU Affero General Public License}} (AGPL v3); Wikidot uses {{tag|Ajax}} for clean and fast interface (no browser page-reload).  It is [[:Category:Search engine|SEO]]-friendly, has no limits on site size, and provides for public and [[:Category:Private|private]] wiki sites. Lots of [[widget]]s; including allowing embedding a [[:Category:Video|video]] from [[:Category:YouTube|YouTube]] and / or [[:Category:Google|GoogleVideo]], photos from Flickr, chats from Meebo, and many more. Each user can create up to twenty (20) Wikidot wiki sites, and be a member of an unlimited number of wiki sites.

Wikidot have a number of official support wiki sites for their registered users.  [[Wikidot Community]] (found at <tt>http://community.wikidot.com</tt>), the [[Handbook (Wikidot)]] (at <tt>http://handbook.wikidot.com</tt>), [[Wikidot Packages]] (<tt>http://packages.wikidot.com</tt>), the [[Forum template]] (at <tt>http://forum-template.wikidot.com</tt>), [[Free Wikidot Themes]] (at <tt>http://themes.wikidot.com</tt>), [[Wikidot Code Snippets]] (at <tt>http://snippets.wikidot.com</tt>), [[Iron Giant]] (a project to create a bunch of free Wikidot applications, at <tt>http://IronGiant.wikidot.com</tt>), [[Multiplayer]] (to bring together gamers old and new, in a fun and competitive environment, at <tt>http://multiplayer.wikidot.com</tt>).  Wikidot also has a {{tag|GreatFeature|great feature}}, available on most Wikidot wiki sites: the top right of each site has an 'Explore »' option (sometimes substituted with a small aeroplane icon), and this will open a new random Wikidot site, from anywhere in the world, on any random [[:Category:Wiki Topic|subject]], in any different [[:Category:Wiki Language|language]].
