    Best CMS for SEO?

    I'm considering switching my hand-coded html content website pages over to a content management system. Is there one that particularly sticks out as being the best from a SEO perspective?

    Wordpress is comparatively a better solution, but it becomes a big pain to manage stuff using wordpress we require help of third party plugins to make the same function like a glowy CMS..

    CMS should be flexible enough to help us acheive what we require.
    1. SEO friendly
    2. Content integration in various forums (news, articles, forums, videos, mobile content, etc.)
    3. User integration, for 1 site only 1 registration system is required, vbseo supports vbulletin hence a CMS which completely uses vbulletins usergroups, conditionals should be great.

    Many more points which is difficult to acheive with wordpress ?

    Wordpress was the easiest system I've worked with to keep up and running, customized, and add some content for a basic blog site.

    I'd recommend Wordpress as well. I have used it for a year, and had no problems at all but my community wanted to have a portal, so I installed vBAdvanced instead!

    Thanks guys, Wordpress certainly is popular so I'm guessing the add-on goodies are in ample supply. I'll take a closer look at that.

    I released this weekend the first release candidate of Contentteller, a fully featured open source CMS that is search engine friendly out of the box and supports also the integration with vBulletin.

    Contentteller is a fairly young code base, but not my first CMS. The development of Contentteller was originally started 2004 as a new major release (2.0) of Storyteller CMS but I decided later to release it as new product after the code base is completely rewritten from scratch.

    The Community Edition (GPL v3) of Contentteller is available over Google Code. Windows users may try out the Windows Installer package, the easiest way to get Contentteller up and running

    It looks sharp, but with a special promo offer of $169, what are the advantages over the other open source (free) solutions?

    I was looking at it when it was $99...last month.
    Found a "used" license for quite a bite less.

    I wanted to do the $99 deal. Vivvo informed me that when I wanted to upgrade - I would have to pay 200 for the next version. So I was like...no way.

    Can you share some of your ideas why you would? It seems wordpress is very well suited for bloggers, something I really don't have much use for with the site I want to re-work. So, blogging superiority aside, would you still prefer wordpress over drupal?
