Full Exposure: CMS Expo Helps You Choose the CMS That’s Right for Your Business

Wordpress. Joomla. Drupal. Plone. Choosing between the top content management systems is something every business with a web presence must do eventually, so wouldn't it be nice to compare them side by side at your leisure and then learn the ins and outs of each from acknowledged experts? CMS Expo, coming May 3-5 to Evanston, IL, lets you do all that and more. This unique conference allows aficionados of the top four content management systems to come together under one roof to share best practices, make new ones, and, of course, convince those on the fence to choose their CMS over the other three.

The guest list for CMS Expo 2010 reads like a who's who in the CMS world: Mitch Pirtle, Chris Coyier, Dries Buytaert, Alan Runyan, Ben Bassi, Ryan Ozimek and more, all together at one conference dedicated to improving all four CMSs. The conference offers seven tracks: Business, Foundations, Power, Joomla!, Drupal, Wordpress and Plone so that business owners familiarizing themselves with the CMS world and web professionals looking to push the boundaries of that world can collaborate under one roof and share their expertise with like-minded individuals from across the CMS spectrum.

Whether you represent a growing small business, a thriving nonprofit, a savvy educational institution or any other organization looking to streamline its web operations with a content management system, CMS Expo is your chance to pick the brains of the pros of each of the three major CMSs on the web today.

CMS Expo's Business Track is the place where web-savvy business owners come together to form ideas and share experiences with their CMSs. It's a time for professionals to compare notes and offer like-minded business owners the benefits of their CMS of choice and how it has impacted their business in a positive way. Learn how a CMS can help your business in the arenas of SEO, Analytics, Social Marketing, Ecommerce, Usability and more.

Once you choose a CMS, the next step is to learn how to best use it to further the goals of your organization. That's where the Foundations Track comes in. Learn from the CMS masters and each other in collaborative seminars designed to give web professionals a solid foundation in their CMS of choice.

For those who live, eat and breathe their CMS, CMS Expo features Core tracks for all four major systems. This is your chance to exchange all those tweaks, tips and strategies that you've accumulated through your years of expertise with Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal or Plone.
