Drupal compared to WordPress and Joomla

Drupal and WordPress are two of the most common CMS's out there and along with Joomla are the most often compared systems. Note, however that there are literally thousands of CMS's out there!! This article will focus on these popular systems and try to answer the question: Which is the right choice and how do you decide which is better? First of all, it's important to avoid getting caught in the 'which is better' conversation, because that is far too general an approach and ultimately not very useful.

What is Drupal?

Drupal is an open-source web development platform for online content. It is a type of website built on a framework known as a content management system. A Content Management System is a combination of tools that are put together to help organize, maintain and enhance content which can be made of text, graphics, sounds, video, audio, etc. One of Drupal's greatest strengths comes from giving users the ability to securely edit their online content at any time without needing to know html.

One of the most important decisions to make before having a website built for you is whether to choose a static website or a content management system, known as a CMS. There are advantages to both but choosing one over the other is a matter of determining what your needs are.
