WordPress or Joomla?

When choosing a Content Management system for your web site it is usually a good idea to ask yourself - what is the problem you are trying to solve?

Most people (as I noticed on several message boards) make same mistake - they try to figure out what software they need to make money online. “I want to create a community, what software do I need?”. First of all - what kind of community is it going to be? Writers? Photographers? Make-up artists? Everyone has a different requirement, and different level of knowledge. Photographers are a little easier to please, as they are used to complicated and cumbersome camera controls, but try to cater same interface to a community of models and make-up artists (same industry, after all) and you will be hit with an outcry for mercy.

Management 101: Before offering a service think - what is the problem the service is going to solve. If you have the answer to this question - you will find tools in no time.
