    my hosting's control panel has 4 choices for blogs to be installed

    1 b2evolution
    2 Nucleus
    3 pMachine Free
    4 WordPress

    of these, which one is the best to use ?

    I want to create a review site where i am going to post reviews to different products on the internet, and i would also like the users to be able to rate the products or leave comments

    Please advice

    Thanks

    I've only used WordPress out of this list. So I'd also go for WP :)

    The list should:
    1. Movabletype
    2. Expression Engine
    3. WordPress

    But the end, I would say WordPress.

    Have to agree with the general consensus, Wordpress, just because the number of themes and plugins it has, and the great support and community.

    I use my own custom platform. Much more efficient than WP and far less code.
