Let's not even get to custom coded CMS's. Wordpress just happens to be your flavor of choice.
Don't get me wrong...i build most of my sites on wordpress because the ease of the templating system and the huge helpful community of users and plugin developers but i'm under no delusion that wordpress is the end all be all of web development. |
aah, gotcha, when I said WordPress I'd have said any free CMS, whether it's Joomla, Movable Type, Drupal, Gawker or whatever.
And yes, WordPress is my flavor of choice as well as most people out there. It's reliable, robust, featured rich... I mean, a big part of commercial software doesn't have 50% of features WordPress have, so why settle with mediocre PAID software when I can have the best, customize it as I want and best of all, for free? As an example, the CMSs we build have way more features than any paid CMS, and believe me I know most (if not all) of them. There are some weak spots, of course, but at worst, if I need it I can hire a great php programmer and bang! nobody can get there unless we're talking about 5 figures custom software. So it's pure maths: one of the best pieces of software FOR FREE against outdated software for variable ranges of money. To me, it's pretty clear. And if someone can't see it... well, their loss, not mine
