    Hello,
    I want to make a website. I have domain and hosting. The problem is that I'm totally new and this is my first attempt. So, I am really confused what CMS I should use. I've heard that Joomla! is easy but its not SEO friendly. SEO is much needed for me since my niche is very competitive. What should I do? Should I use Durpal?? Is it good? Please Help.

    Joomla is what we use and photoshop for the graphic side, I would suggest Joomla just because it's widely used. It's good to mix in other things though, Wordpess is really good:)

    Out of the available options I say WordPress. Very clean and user-friendly. Lots of options now that they've upgraded their software as well, and allows for quick plugin integration of other mods that will allow you to build yourself a very nice CMS and site.

    If this is your first attempt, so IMO it will be easier to use WordPress. It is really easy to use. I think it's interface is more user friendly then other's. And it has all functions you need to share text content and photos.

    As per my opinion Word Press is best!

    Why because Word Press is an Open Source blogging platform or application that is installed on your web host server. Currently, it is the most popular software used for self hosted blogs. It is free to use and most web hosts with cPanel access will have a one-click installation. and it makes it possible for a business owner to maintain their website themselves if they so choose. Even if you are paying someone to design your site for you, it is generally much less expensive to have a Word Press site designed than it is to have a static or other CMS site created. Then you are able to take over and make any small changes and updates to your site yourself.

    Out of the box is Wordpress the best but when you configured everything Drupal is the best.

    For a newbie I would recommend Wordpress, this CMS has a very easy back-end and offers enough options. Drupal is a flexible system which is more designed for complex websites. Joomla I would not recommend: bad security, poor SEO, messy code (plus not valid W3C and CSS), requires a component for every small feature and the most good components you need to buy..
