Xiao Qiao has been doing design for a long time. When many clients or friends come to me to do websites, they usually ask me what software system to use. Most customers want to use free software.
So today, Xiao Qiao introduces five good websites that I have used, especially the free website building system.
The MetInfo system is designated by a customer, so I must use this system to create a website for him. So I spent some time to understand the system. The operability of the whole system is OK.
The framework of MetInfo is developed based on PHP+MySQL.
From the interface, the interface is simple and clear, which is more consistent with the current user habits. The flat design is more attractive to users. In terms of functions, MetInfo has basically complete functions, including common content management, multilingual and other basic functions. In terms of use, the design of some boards is not very humanized and hidden deeply, so they often cannot be found in the process of use, which takes time. But it will be much better after getting familiar with it. On the whole, I think SEO is the most outstanding part of the system. There are many settable contents and obvious SEO effect. In general, simple interface design is very suitable for novices.
The main disadvantage is that although it is free, two core files are encrypted! The code structure of MetInfo is chaotic, and the code writing is not standardized. In addition, the technical service couldn't keep up. The 400 call was always busy, and the technical service on qq kept queuing up. After asking one question, the qq technical service didn't respond directly. In fact, this experience is very bad. I hope the technical services on the official website can be improved a little later.
Software framework: PHP+MySQL architecture
Software functions: membership, security, marketing, SEO, content, mobile terminal, multilingual
Update speed: the update speed of large version is very slow, and the update of small version is about one or two months to fix the bug
Technical service: the response speed of technical service is slow, and 400 calls cannot be made
Recommended index: ★★★☆☆
Speaking of wordpress, most people should be familiar with it. WordPress is currently the most used CMS system in the world. It is developed based on PHP+MySQL.
From the interface, the interface is simple and clear, similar to the interface design of MetInfo. In terms of functions, Wordpress has strong community support, and its official and third-party themes and plug-ins are very rich, which can basically meet the needs of most users. Many people on the Internet say that SEO is an advantage of WordPress, but I dare not agree with it. Wordpress does not have too many settings about site SEO, which are the most basic settings of the site. But I have to say, the most surprising thing is that there is no menu item for site keywords and descriptions in the background. Users can only manually add relevant code implementation in the header.php file under the theme directory. This will be a bit of a loss for people who can't code.
The main disadvantage is that the system is bloated and takes up a lot of resources. If it is not handled, it may take up too much resources. This has puzzled many new bloggers, especially those who do not know much about technology. And for novices, the operation and maintenance of the server itself is a problem. However, if your website is going to be a personal blog, I highly recommend WordPress, because there are too many template choices.
Software framework: PHP+MySQL architecture
Software functions: content management, mobile support, members, blogs
Update speed: fast, about a month or two to update a version
Technical service: forum
Recommended index: ★★★★★
In the early days, WordPress was the first choice for making websites for customers. Now, it is known that WordPress is the first choice for making websites for customers. Cicada knows that the website building system is also developed based on PHP+MySQL. Its powerful functions can almost rival those of WordPress.
In terms of the interface, it is simple and refreshing, especially the design of the sidebar, which does not take up space and has a large area of use, so it is not too restrictive. The design is very good, and the presentation is not like Wordpress and MetInfo. In terms of functions, the basic content management, forum, blog, WeChat integration, mobile terminal support and other functions are complete, among which the most prominent are SEO, security and design modules. The SEO collection of several websites that have been done for customers before is good, and they can also be listed on the home page of a certain degree. If you don't want to talk about it, you can try and understand it yourself. The shopping mall management module is free, which is a good benefit compared with other software on the market. After all, most shopping malls are managed for a fee.
The main disadvantage is that there are too few templates to choose, especially for mobile phones. Secondly, they have a template for redeeming points, which can also be regarded as a free template. However, after the template is imported in the background, the original interface is still greatly changed, and the source style code is encrypted, so there are still many limitations in the change. It is suggested that the official can provide free template technical services in the later stage.
Software framework: PHP+MySQL architecture
Software functions: content management, mall management, members, blog, SEO, security, WeChat integration
Update speed: very fast, basically one version per month
Technical services: free technical support, forums, official qq groups, 400 phones, etc

Xiao Bian also used dream weaving in his early days. After several months of using it, I can't say how deep I understand it, but I still have a thorough understanding of the basic functions. Zhimeng is also developed based on PHP+MySQL.
From the interface, the background design of Dream Weaving is relatively old, and I don't like it very much. From the functional point of view, dream weaving is not fully functional. In addition to simple content management, other shopping malls, forums, blogs and other related functions are not available. This is a disadvantage. From the operational point of view, dream weaving is very easy to use, and the threshold for use is very low.
Main disadvantages: I believe that security is a problem that most users have been troubled by. There are too many loopholes in dream weaving. Xiaobian gave up dream weaving because of security problems. If the lack of dream weaving function is a drawback, the safety of dream weaving must be said to be a fatal drawback. Security is the most critical aspect of DEDE. There are many vulnerabilities in it, and the official can only often issue some security patches to solve some vulnerabilities. Another point is that if Zhimeng is a commercial enterprise, it will be charged, and the amount charged is not cheap.
Software framework: PHP+MySQL architecture
Software function: content management
Update speed: slow
Technical services: forum, qq group (unofficial)
Recommended index: ★★☆☆☆
Imperial CMS is also developed based on PHP+MySQL. The frameworks introduced to you today are the same.
In terms of the interface, the interface design of the Imperial CMS background is also very old. It is a table layout, unlike the previous station building systems, which use the div layer layout. In terms of functions, the functions are basically complete, the security is relatively good, and the scalability is also OK. The built-in backup and recovery system is also good. As long as the data is backed up by the Imperial Backup King, it can be imported completely, which saves webmasters from the trouble of moving.
The disadvantage of the empire is that the table layout brings it some limitations. Although it is slightly better in browser compatibility, it is worse in SEO. In addition, I feel that Empire is more suitable to be an information network or portal website, but it has great limitations to be a website with high interactivity.
Software framework: PHP+MySQL architecture
Software functions: content management, membership
Update speed: the update speed is moderate, and it is basically updated once every three or four months
Technical services: forum, qq group (unofficial)

Conclusion: The five website building systems recommended above are all used by Xiaobian. Don't ask me why there is no XX system, which is unscientific. Xiaobian just wants to say that I only introduce what I have used, and dare not introduce what I have not used. Of course, the recommendation index is also based on my personal use, not the only criterion.
On the whole, Wordpress and Chanzhi are the first ones promoted by Xiaobian. Wordpress is the first choice to be a personal blog, and the first choice to be a domestic enterprise. I know that as a domestic software, the technical service manual must be much better than WordPress, and it must be more consistent with the use habits of Chinese people, and the maintenance cost will certainly be lower. In my early days, I used WordPress to translate some tutorials and manuals into an interpreter. Therefore, I hope that you can use domestic software for maintenance. Let's talk about other systems. MetInfo is also suitable for Xiaobai, but its later scalability is not very strong. Simple enterprise website building is still applicable. The Imperial CMS editor is also recommended. It has complete functions, but sometimes the table layout has high limitations. It's not that bad about dede. If you have time, Xiao Qiao suggests designers to learn and understand other website building systems, because dede's security is really a big problem.
Do not use only one website system invariably. You should know more about several websites. In actual application, you can select your own suitable website system according to customer needs, and use these systems as your most powerful tools. Well, this is the end of the recommendation for this issue. The above contents are all personal opinions. Please give us more advice where the wording is inappropriate! You are also welcome to recommend other website building systems that you think are easy to use to facilitate mutual learning!
