WordPress Wins Best CMS Award
For the past year or so, I have been praising the ease of use and benefits of using WordPress to all of my friends, family and associates. In my opinion there is no other CMS that gives the same options to every single person, including novices. I have easily crested websites for all of my closest friends and taught them, within minutes, how to update their own websites. WordPress made it easy for me to create websites for all of my dearest friends: Waters Works, Dog Blessed, Julia Saves Dogs, Chestnut Street Cafe, Massages By Colleen, and my own Kymber Style to name a few.
It allowed me, a novice in the world of code, to create beautiful websites. Websites that were extremely search engine friendly. Websites that excelled in rankings. Websites that due to the fact that it was open source, gave us options that were above and beyond anything I could have coded myself. Take www.oakmontpopwarner.net for example.
As a coach for the midget cheer squad, I offered to create a website for them and donate it. Using a sliding door template, I changed the photos, fixed the links and made a very impressive website. A website that with one click I added a password protected area for coaches. Another click created a full seo friendly sitemap. Another click created anti-spam measures on the website. The list goes on and on….
Gone are the days of paying thousands of dollars for a website. WordPress and open source developers make it very easy and reasonable to maintain a great website with great results!
Now as if to validate what I have been saying for well over a year, WordPress is awarded the Overall Best Open Source CMS Award in the 2009 Open Source CMS Awards. In addition to winning in the Overall Best Open Source CMS category, WordPress was named first runner-up in the Best Open Source PHP CMS category.
Great job WordPress, and all of the people that give to make it such a great product!

I really like WordPress! I’ve been using WordPress for a bunch of smaller projects and it’s really easy to work with, extend, update, etc.
The sites you put together look really good. I’m impressed!
Wow Carlos. Thank you!
