Static website generator with a markdown editor will end up cheaper probably.
Wordpress or drupal will generally end up easier as long as nothing goes wrong.
From my experience with inexperienced use and users stuff will go wrong at some point and then it can be a bit more of a hassle.
- selfhoster11 6y agoThey are definitely cheaper, as long as you already employ technical staff. I've worked as an IT volunteer in a small org, and there was no dedicated tech beyond me. Any kind of setup that I built for authoring the website would have to be as usable by non-technical users as possible, so I went with Wordpress. I had no replacement and there was no-one with enough technical know-how to handle authoring and troubleshooting a cheap static site, so I deliberately chose WP to minimise problems. The cost was 2-3x larger than the cheaper alternatives, but ultimately it was keeping the website up that mattered.
