Tell me if I should stick with Drupal or switch to Joomla

Right now I am using drupal on my site:

http://webmastercritic.com/

and was wondering if I should switch to joomla for this kind of site. I am trying to create a review site with web hosting ratings.

 

I would go with Joomla! since it is very customizable.

 

Hi there, I would use wordpress. I didn't comb through this page too thoroughly... but I suspect you can find a nice ratings extension of some sort to provide you with that bit of functionality. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=ratings

Wordpress is rocking these days!
hope that helps,
Nigel

 

Thanks will check it out

 

I didn't know WP was an option. Obviously, I recommend that above everything else.

 

here is my suggestion if you want to move to joomla

if you want to build a joomla based review site its actually have a vew very good component that very customizable for you interm of layout and component itself.

maybe at first you may need to take alook on joomla extensions website

sigsiu[dot]net
and the highest rated i want to suggest to you is sobi plugins, you can make a directory website, review website, wiki type of website, and most of directory website without need to pay anything except if you want to extend the function you just need a bit of knowdlege of joomla and how to customize it. you can take alook a few of link i suggest based on sobi2

You can do what you want with either CMS so just use whatever you know best. Personally I would go WordPress as it has the most active community, chances are there is already theme out that does what you want, just gotta find it.

 

Or you could stick with Drupal and use the Five Star rating module along with others. Here is an example of a rating site made with Drupal - http://www.adoptionagencyratings.com/

The owner explains how he did it here: http://drupal.org/node/206397

You may not need as many modules as he did since he was importing his data from elsewhere.

Here's another Drupal rating and review site: http://www.beerreviewjournal.com/
