    Hi everyone. I am looking for a CMS that is easy to install, manage, and understand. I know a bit about web design, but I don't know much about servers and hosts and all that hardware stuff. I just need a CMS that would create pages with words on it. That's it. Any suggestions?

    It depends on what you want to do down the road. Word press is nice, but it's more of a blog in my opinion. Joomla is much more extensible. Installation is fairly easy. You do need to be able to use an FTP program and be able to change permissions.

    I have no experience with drupal.

    My website was put together with all freeware and based on Joomla. It has paid and free members areas,front or back-end content creation and editing, and I can change the look and feel in about 5 minutes if I want.

    -------- Subtle Ad
    My paid area has about 2 hours of video of me setting up the site from buying the domain name to the blank joomla site. I plan on adding video on the membership management and other enhancements soon.
