Best Content Management System ? Blog vs CMS ?
Posted: Wed May 03, 2006 9:15 pmI am wanting to start my first content oriented portal (topic not yet considered) and am curious to know which standard would be the best and easiest to use considering:
1. SEO
2. Ease of Article Publication (posting new content easily)
3. Organizing Content
4. Flexibility
I have considered blogs as a standard for some time now seeing that they provide quick SE results and allow administrators to post articles on the fly with adsense and affiliate links intertwined. They also provide RSS syndication as a capability as well. I currently use Wordpress for one of my smaller websites to help me generate more natural traffic, so I am up-to-date on how to operate and post new wordpress blogs.
On the other hand, I have yet to work with any CMS applications yet, but do believe that I can figure out my way around the application after a few days or so. The only reason why I am considering CMS is because most of the larger to medium sized content portals I find on the internet are built around some sort of CMS or php based application. This brings me to back to my main question.
Does CMS or other related applications have any true underlying value over Blogs when publishing content sites?
Any information on this would be truly helpful.
