CMS advice / templates

[GraemeUK]

Hi guys,

I'm after some advice about 2 things.

1) I'm trying to find a good CMS to use which will be easy enough to add new content to regularly for a small business website which is currently a bit too basic and is too hard for "non-technical" people to add content to. I have read some good things about Joomla. Is this suitable for my needs?

2) I'm trying to find a good starting theme, I don't mind paying but there seems to be so many sites to choose from I don't know any good ones.

Is there a particularly good theme site for me to get started with that someone can recommend please?

The current site is www.vfs-ltd.com which is a bit basic, but I'd like something clean & simple but also professional looking.

Hope that's not too much to ask.
Thanks in advance

Joomla or Wordpress are the ones you want.

As for for templates, just google for them, there are hundreds of sties for you to have a look through.

And if you don't like any of them it really isn't hard to make your own if you already know HTML/CSS.

I quite like the site you have at the moment. I agree it needs some modification but I think there are some good building blocks there. Change the menu to horizontal, add a news bar down the side, update the pages, add a bit of styling bob's your uncle.

Joomla is poo - use Wordpress like people who aren't rubbish
