falkencreative Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 It's not that difficult. My impression is that Wordpress is easier to get started with than Joomla, but I haven't used Joomla that much. I've done quite a few WP sites and in general, I've found it to be a very powerful and flexible platform. KillerSites has Wordpress tutorials available if you need to get started (killersites.com/wordpress) and I believe additional ones in the KS University.

newseed Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 I've used Joomla for a few years and I find it to be an overkill for small business sites. In your case, I would go with Wordpress which is simplified and easy to use and plugins galore! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perryc Posted August 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Ok, thanks for the replies. Im pretty sure thats what im going to go with is word-press. I've heard people say word-press is for small sites, Joomla is for medium sized sites, and Drupal is for large to really large sites.

icky_thump Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Hadn't heard the small, medium, large before. that's interesting to know. I've started using Joomla this year. After reading a lot about CMSs, what I was able to ascertain is that Wordpress is more for Designers, Drupal more for Programmers/Developers and Joomla was the happy medium.
