Opinions run hot for this topic.  Each article seems to be weighted heavily on the preference of the person writing the post.  In reality the best platform would depend on what you expect to get out of your website.   

Without supporting factors about the site you are looking to build, asking the vague question about platform is not different than asking what’s the best car to buy.   Let’s take a look at the platforms and talk about their strengths and weaknesses.  

The final choice will be left to the person that knows what they need and want from a new website.

The first question should be; “what do I want my site to do?”

  •  Are you looking to blog but won’t be selling product?
    •  Are you looking to have lots of pictures and videos and need people to be able to comment on them?  Will your site have user accounts?
      •  Do you need to change content and media constantly?
        •  Do you have a working knowledge of PHP or HTML?
          •  What type of hosting do you have?  Some platforms do not work well with some hosting software.

The top 3 platforms are Drupal, Joomla and Wordpress.  Each carry their own strengths.
