Managed Wordpress with WP-Engine. It's more expensive than self-hosted but it saves me days in not-having-to-fuck-with-my-server time.
( I wrote about this in some depth a while ago: http://www.mmomeltingpot.com/2012/03/wpengine-review-after-1-month-and-250k-visitors-is-this-the-best-wordpress-hosting-money-can-buy/ http://www.mmomeltingpot.com/2012/03/wpengine-review-after-1... )
Why Wordpress? Mostly for the It Just Works factor. I've done my time in the CMS trenches - I've written my own several times back before there were any decent hosted solutions. Nowadays, if it's reasonably easy to use and not too slow I'm good with it.
Plus, Wordpress has the advantage of an absolutely massive ecosystem around it, meaning that any features I want to add rarely require custom code, and usually just require a Google search. :)
