I have used WordPress numerous times to set up and maintain simple and complicated sites.I have also used Drupal to set up a multiblog site. Both softwares have their strengths and weaknesses.However, WordPress wins hands down when it comes to ease of use,ease of design change and ease of adding features via thousands of available plugins and themes.The fact that both are open source is amazing if you consider the other alternatives to set up a web site ,especially a blog or CMS. (And even open source software can make money indirectly.) WordPress deserves all it's awards. Whether someone does or does not like awards is like saying that I cannot tell you which award was most important to me since I have received so "few" of them.
