Sil's hit the nail on the head.

I've seen a lot of customers get a joomla or wordpress site designed, usually from an overseas incompetent developer. Something goes wrong, or the site becomes outdated cos of new updates to wordpress/joomla and the owner of the site does nothing, and the site gets hacked. Then they have a go at the dev...either learn how to update and maintain the site yourself, or enter into a maintenance agreement with your dev, so that they update the site as soon as new updates become available.

I personally dislike CMS sites, they are, without any variance, clunky to say the least. I've already mentioned my personal dislike of wordpress and joomla. There's a reason why they're free software ;-)

Domain name is important, and getting a good domain is even more important. I've seen people pick silly domain names names and just shake my head...the old k.i.s.s principle really does apply...
