and one more thing…
I just wen to check out Google Sites, and it seems like they updated it with more layouts and plenty of more styles and themes to choose from. It seems like they have a them and template for any subject you could think of!
I believe, that in the long run, Google will have stronger abbilities than WordPress, but only time will tell…

This post is great, and really saved me some comparing these products myself, since I want to start using one of them soon.
You didn't mention hosting fees or limitations ???

All and all, Wordpress wins! I've been trying my hand with a Wordpress theme and I realized just how flexible their service really is. I wouldn't have had so much liberty with Google, that's for sure.

I use Google Sites for my Maths website, (www.neotsmaths.co.uk) - it's great for sharing worksheets, podcasts, pictures and news. I think it's fab, but I think its lack of user registration is a little limiting. I am trying to get the students to comment more on the Maths blog in this respect.

Although there are a few themes, it is very customisable!

Interesting article though - thanks!

Thanks Ariellah,

well, it really depends...
roughly, I would say that for ‎Marketing I would use a WordPress site (since you can design it). For ‎collaboration I would use Google sites (it was made especially for that). For ‎the community and elearning - it depends on what kind of activities you are ‎doing.

I do not know moodle and do not have experience with Joomla, so ‎unfortunately I cannot answer these questions.

Thank you for this interesting article.

What would you recommend for a schools' web site? purpose - marketing, community, eleraning, collaborative.

It it possible to embed moodle into Google site?

How is Joomla compared to Google site?

I’ve been using wordpress for my blog/personal site and pretty much happy with it

WordPress gives me great control over what I want to do with my own site.
