Re: Fan-fic site
Just to be different, I really like django (https://www.djangoproject.com/ - Python framework) for web development. There are several cms type projects based on django. Two good ones are: http://www.django-cms.org/en/ http://mezzanine.jupo.org/ Lots of modules, lots of options, open source, all Python. If you want to see how django works as a framework, take spin through the basic tutorial - https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ see First Steps. A very strong and helpful community. Have fun!

Re: Fan-fic site
If you are going to write reviews WordPress would work just fine with the addition of a couple plugins. If you are going to build a site that works like a search engine, you could use WordPress with a plugin for such a thing. We would need more information to really give you any real feedback. What features are looking for? Is there an existing site that does what you want to do? If so please share the link. On 2015-06-06 21:36, trent shipley wrote: I'm thinking of starting a fan-fic site.

Fan-fic site
I'm thinking of starting a fan-fic site. I had one years ago. Keeping track of the links was hell. Would a content management system help? I'm thinking of using shared hosting.
