Thread: Which blog software to use?

Please give some suggestions on a good and lite blog software. I'm planning to run a blog section (the blog is NOT going to be the main site content) ...... it's going to be something like http://www.mydomain.com/blog or http://blog.mydomain.com.

I'm leaning towards WordPress .... but is there anything else?

Anyone running WordPress on Linux Shared Hosting? Any problems on server load, as I think WordPress doesn't support page caching to lighten the server load rite?

http://yourdomain.com/blog/ is definitely preferable.

I never had any overloading issue as Wordpress is quite a lightscript. Just don't install any bloated plugin and you will be alright.

And yes, there's a plugin called WP-Cache to improve your visitors navigation speed.

I haven't implemented any custom blogging system.

wordpress is the best cms i ever use. i had tested drupal, mambo, and some other cms available that i think is good to make a blog, but for me, wordpress is the best. and many bloggers and expert bloggers use wordpress too. even adverlets.com also use wordpress.

-cypher.

Thanks guys ... it's WordPress then.

I've never used CMS for any of my sites ... I prefer to build everything from scratch for my main content's layout ... but now I want to add a small blog section, so intstalling WordPress seems to be the easiest way.
