Wordpress as CMS

joshua · #1 (**permalink**) 06-01-2007, 03:10 PM

Do someone in here use wordpress as cms.I have tried to do this with some success on my home computer but I doubt that it could challenge the like of drupal.

What do you think of this?

I am not following your words properly, and don't know what challenge you talking about. wordpress is content management software and i have made a site on wordpress. that is tv.edogo.com

You must know before using WordPress as a CMS what WordPress does and what it does not do. The only way to really learn this is to get in there and start experimenting. With a little practice and the help of plugins you can get something good.

I have used it a little bit. It has the fluid interface that made wordpress blog so popular but I don't know how well it can perform the harder tasks. It is reasonably priced though.

I cannot work with drupal, I think they are on under maintainance.

Well, i think drupal and jhoomla are the most popular open source CMS available. There is no other good option for them.

Wordpress is good but for me, I like using drupal more on my websites.

Yes, WP is no longer a blogging system, lots and lots of investor, developer and internet markter use WP as cms, and more than that e-commerce site.

I have a client whose business is in niche sites, they have thousands of clients across United States that uses WP alone, as CMS. for Mni sites or affiliate sites.

It may be challenged if wordpress is not upgraded.

I'm also using wordpress. It's a good platform not only for blogs but also for e-commerce sites.

Wordpress is a good platform.
This is my first CMS I used and still haven't tried any cause it's proven reliable.

Hi! I'm with nancysparx - WP is the best CMS - clear, simply configurable, a lot of themes, possibility to configure the lokk as you want.
I'm using Wordprees for pretty much everything - small online business cards, complex websites, blogs.
I heard that you can even make a webstore on WP.

Yes you can use wordpress as CMS especially if you are planning for a blog. If you want to use for your website which is not blog there are two ways.

1. you can create pages without any blog post to look as website.

2. If you have good knowledge in SEO, consider to use tag as your main category page which will help you gaining high ranking.
