Choosing the BEST Open Source CMS

Looking for the BEST Open Source CMS?
STOP LOOKING! There’s no such thing…

CMS, which stands for “Content Management System“, is a web application that can aids you in managing a website. With it, there’s no longer a need to be a geek to create and update contents for a site… or so they say.

Here’s my advice to choosing a CMS.
All you need to do is ask two questions…
1) What do I want to do?
2) Which CMS allows me to do it easily?

One common mistake when choosing between CMSs is thinking “bigger is better”. Using the best cutting edge technology CMS out there ain’t gonna do you any good if all you want is a simple personal blog!

For most cases, an important criteria would be “Open Source”. The main advantage to YOU as a user would be that its free… just remember “Open Source = No need to pay $ for it forever”.

Choosing a CMS that runs on PHP/MySQL (both of which are Open Source too) might also be wise as a majority of web hosting companies provide and support it. An important factor when choosing between Open Source CMSs is its Community… because that’s where you’re gonna be getting help from… generally the bigger IS better.

These are some popular OpenSource/PHP/MySQL CMSs that I would recommend:
