Google loves wordpress a lot if you are talking about freely hosted blog on wordpress.com, then not a good idea. buy your own hosting
I don't think it's the platform as opposed to the backlinks you are getting, and the content, the rules to rank well on Google are simple, regular quality content and quality backlinks
The game has changed simply having unique content isn't good enough anymore. I don't think google is targeting wordpress sites specifically, but the boost to brands/authority sites has resulted in blogs moving down in the SERPs.
Many of the successful websites are built on WordPress. Google doesn't hate WordPress. It's all about how the website is optimized.
I'd have to agree with that. In my experience, with same content it ranks quicker and better than mediawiki for example. in my opinion, it's all about in-site optimization: RSS feed, SEO plugin, tags, categories, RSS of tags and categories, fresh content on the first page, etc
If you do basic SEO techniques and provide real content, your WordPress website should do okay. If you do not put any work in SEO for your website, do not think a plain WordPress website will just rank high on rankings for you without any work.
According to me- There is nothing like Google loves and Google hates... If your website is loved by a human then google will love it too !! Google keeps on changing and tweaking its algorithm just to give its visitors the best results they want ! Regards ~Sam~

Your rank have nothing to do with Wordpress. It is platform with most available plugins and can be optimised great with ease! You have bad promotion on your articles, so they are not significant to google.
No This is a good platform and also a very good to handle all thing and also many plug in to use this.
No,i don't think that way, Google panda only loves the quality contents it doesn't matter for your site platform..
