Which Content Management System (CMS)/Wiki should I use?
A non-technical friend has asked me to provide some guidance for his new website idea. To avoid losing a friend - I intend to send him to another professional to setup and maintain his website.
The idea is not revolutionary - a basic website with user submitted ads, but given it is for a niche he might get some traction and I wish him good luck with that.
Given that functionality is really very standard, should I suggest to him that he goes with something fairly mainstream such as Joomla or Wordpress that can be easily hosted on shared hosting?
The only data that we want secure is the emails and phone numbers of the ad submitters. Any particular steps to take there?
The other major req is that the site works well on mobile devices. Which particular product would you suggest and why?
I also welcome any general suggestions on products or approaches that he can take.
