i think wordpress would be the best one for the following reasons 1. it is free and available on most of hosting servers. if you purchase a webhost, it is already included. 2. customizable with php,css and javascript. if you don't have budget you can create your own theme. 3. easy and friendly features. even newbies can manage to create a website within a short time. 4. secured, responsive and friendly with search engines (SEO service is ok) 5. add many plugins as you want if you have budget and plan to make your web more advanced most of the local companies are using this wordpress. I hope you will find tune working with wordpress in case you have no other choices...šŸ‘¼šŸ‘¼šŸ‘¼

I'm more experienced with Joomla, so that'll be my choice for you. However, it's not hard to test out each one through their trials and see what'll be the best for you. If you explain more about the website you're making, that'll help out with deciding what'll work best for you.

@Netkos... It's been a few years since I've worked with Joomla. I tried to like this platform as a CMS. However, I couldn't quite get there. I started deep diving into WordPress in 2010, which I initially struggled to like. However, after being involved in the WP dev community, speaking at past WordCamps, and becoming very familiar with the architecture (especially with multisite) I've really come to like working with WP. It's got its problems like any CMS. However, I've been able to look past them. Seeing your recommendation has me curious to revisit Joomla and see how much it's changed since I last spent some time with it.

Content management systems (CMS). Joomla, Drupal, Magento and WordPress consistently appear in the top 4. My opinions are at least a release behind; but they are so easy to demo (e.g., Amazon Web Services' free tier appears to have prebuilt images with 'howto' instructions) that you may as well just try them as @Netkos Ent indicates,

yes! you are correct wp is very good but knowing code and manipulate them is another thing which give one an advantage to brake and solve some syntax errors so learning of code is good
