WordPress is probably my preference as well. I've been meaning to do something with my development site for a while, but I have little to no time nowadays. I've been handed work from my boss to do up their website, and for what they are asking, I'll be heavily underpaid, but I don't mind because in the end it's about my reputation with my employers really. Something that would have cost them roughly $2000 minimum, I'm probably doing for less than $300-500; a mix of Javascript, PHP, HTML, CSS, and MySQL integration for a dynamic multi-user login and calendar display system. I've also got Windows Store apps to make, certifications to finish that have been waiting for 3 weeks, software and equipment to learn, blogs to write, etc...
If you've got the time though, my recommendation is pretty solidly directed towards WordPress however. I just don't find that much enjoyment in web-content related stuff.
