A BIG Difference in Open Sources Content Management System: Drupal Vs Wordpress


Drupal and Wordpress both are counted as best open sources CMS tool in Web world. They help you to integrated your customize design, edit, insert , add new tab, add dynamic menu, add images and many more features provided by both on them that counting this features only may end my Blog limit.
Just an idea to find difference between this two basic platform that which is more better is itself a toughest job as both of them user would depict that there CMS systems is far more better than other and start counting features provided by both of Open sources system. As both of platform perform excellent role on their part by best implementation and customization of your design.
Wordpress started it with focus with ease of use of bloggers and content creators and provided platform for developers to build plug-ins as per their use. It is best choice for blog developer or small or medium website as it could not provide such a great platform for complex control site, but for small and medium website it is treated as best sources as it provide easily customized platform which could be simply by installing few plug-ins can be worked as great. I could explain this with my own experience of design when I had to create a simple business learning center for my own site I preferred wordpress as it provide me with easy customize platform, SEO plugins for all blog and articles and similarly easy navigation too.
Drupal started primarily with web content development platform, with strength of community features, it provide with high-level publishing platforms. Drupal Platform is best for site with deep integration, website with great level of development, multiple languages, multiple theme, wiki or heavy library sites. So in all we can say that Drupal is can provide with best platform for high level website, it also provide with feature of developing modules for CMS platform to its community and share with others to implement.
In all I can say after working with both platform Drupal and wordpress both CMS platform are well developed at their interface if one is good at small interfaces than other is best at big interface design. As it is best saying ever that “Needle is mightier than sword for stitching “.
