Full Version: Building a basic cms

I want to make a basic website, which i can update regularly. I don't want to update it all the time in html, so i want to make a very basic cms. Can anyone give me some advice as to how i would go about this?
Wouldn't it be better just to use wordpress or something?

Otherwise i would just use php to write to a file (or a mysql db) and then get the content onto a webpage. Just check out w3schools.coms php tutorial, and you'll be able to do it in no time.
Use php and mysql. But you'd have to learn the basics of those languages first. Heres a page that might help you out a bit:

Well I use Website Baker if I ever needed to, I've tested it out a few times and in my opinion is faster than Joomla! which I think can be slow and a server resource hogger. It's best to stick to something which doesn't take up a lot of space or resources on the server.
