I hope this is the right place to post this...I'm looking for a good, simple, cheap Content Management System for my site. We currently use Frontpage. I am in charge of the site, but I have a webhost who does all the system admin stuff on the server end. I am not a programmer, which is why I always used Frontpage, which is very WYSIWYG.  But I want to go to a CMS because we have many volunteers on my site (over 50) and it's hard to find people who want to contribute to the site that know Frontpage. I think it would be a lot easier with a CMS.  Also, our site is huge, and FP adds so many files that it is a problem, not to mention that sometimes it has server issues.

Also, we are looking to put in a new and more professional design, simpler, with an eye toward eventually, maybe, selling the site.

Anyway, can someone tell me if DotNetNuke can help me with this and how easy it is to set up? Is there a demo somewhere or screen shots so I can see for myself?  If it's not too difficult, I can ask my webhost to implement it on the server and start setting it up.

Thanks!!

DotNetNuke may suit your needs, because it is extensible with thousands of modules available and can handle sites with heavy load. Once the site is set up and running, adding content is easy, though DotNetNuke does not contain a global content approval workflow atm (there are 3rd party modules, if necessary). On the other hand, to set up the site, especially for high traffic, some expertise is needed, I suggest to look for a DNN expert to assist you in get it running.

Without knowing all of your requirements, the desired functionality, possible 3rd party integration, etc., etc., it would be unfair for ANY engineer/developer to tell you "yes or no" if DNN is a good fit for your needs.
