I am putting up a blog style website. The website would be a blog style website where users can add comments at the bottom of each page.

What is the best web-programming language/platform to use in this situation?

Would ASP be suitable?

+1  A: 

Almost any programming language or web platform will be able to build a blog engine, from the archaic (CGI) to the mundane (ASP.NET) to the cutting-edge (Lift). Use whatever you're comfortable with, or whatever you want to learn.

There is no "right" answer to this question.

Why not use an existing solution like WordPress?

If you do want to create your own CMS, then just use whatever language/framework you're most comfortable with.

Of course that more detailed explanation about the functionality of your website may affect my recommendation... still:

  • You may be OK with simply going with a pre-packaged solution such as Joomla (http://www.joomla.org) or WordPress (http://www.wordpress.org).
  • I would give the Django Framework (http://www.djangoproject.com) a try, if you're into doing it all yourself.
