Word Press vs all?

I am facing the challenge as a “professional economist” to develop a new website for www.persianasypersianas.com. When looking for different platforms I found the traditional HTML websites builders as Adobe Dreamwaver versus the open source ones as Word Press and Joomla. Now the trick is to forecast which platform will last more time and wich one is easier to use as a nonprofessional web developer.

Until this moment, word press is wining the contest, nevertheless its special hosting requirements (Hosting with PHP5x and MySQL5x) maybe a big drawback.

Stay tune for the results
