Website Primer ... Pro's & Con's ???


Thanks guys ... EXCELLENT info ... now we\'re cooking with gas.

+1 @ well-engineered

Checking into MojoMotor a bit as a possible \'prelude\' to EE. Right now that makes a bit more sense to me than Wordpress does. There\'s a lot of cool themes out there for Wordpress, but for some reason, I have reservations @ Wordpress in the long run ... stuff I\'ve got ZERO clue about, but it still concerns me. AND, in order to use all those \"cool themes\" I have to be dependent upon myself (scary ) via third party hosting.

Free & popular are always scary things to someone oriented toward \"well-engineered\".


I\'m thinking that some of the Pro\'s @ custom EE would carry over well into their MM product (as a starter):
-Very secure
-Very easy to use
-super stable
-fast (built on a highly regarded framework, Code Ignitor)
-scalable, grows with you (i.e. upgrade to EE)
-great developer community.
-Established

I need to find out a bit more @ MM, but strategically, it seems like it might be a good play for the long run ... even if I give up some of the cool templates that have been developed for Wordpress short term ... using MM as my stepping stone to EE.

Any thoughts @ major Con\'s of MM (it\'ll have limits obviously) from our perspectives?

Btw ... the 1-3 month timeline isn\'t for me to learn all there is to know for me to do a build or anything ridiculous like that ... it\'s the timeline for me to make a decision @ which direction I\'m going to go, i.e. my \"feasability study\", if you will.

Thanks again for the valuable input.
