Recommendations, thoughts, tips and tricks, or peanuts on moving from wordpress to django [closed]


Django and wordpress cannot be compared, because, like it is said in django docs: "Django is a thing that you use to create things like wordpress".

If you would like to compare the speed:

Wordpress is really slow engine. One of the slowest. Sometime it needs to make 30 hits to database to show only one page. In django it completely depends on how you white your app. You can make it slow, fast, or whatever, depending on your skills and functionality that you wish to receive.

So, your question can't be answered, because you must decide whether you are whilling to make your new blog from scratch or not. If you are, then Django would be a great choice. If not, stay on the wordpress, or try a different engine.


Wordpress is a CMS. Django is a web development framework. You cannot compare them in any reasonable way.

Everything that you get for free from Wordpress you will need to work for in Django, or at the very least install a pre-existing module for it.

The effects of scalability and performance will only depend on your implementation of the things you want to do in Django.
