Magento

Greetings!

I am debating which platform should I go with… Wordpress or Magento… for my website.

My plan:

I will not run a warehouse or manage inventory (in the far future, I definitely will use Magento to run physical inventory at my warehouse, right now, I don’t have warehouse).

I will make money from the affiliate program such as selling amazon.com products or any other website products on my website.

I will not send out tech people to the sites to do the projects.

My website will make money by referring business to customer’s request (will have business directory).

I would like to hear your recommendation or suggestion on which platform and also extensions for Magento Community if Magento is recommended.

Thanks

No doubt, you can go using Magento.

You may be interested in this information about using Magento for affiliate networks. Magento provides multi-currency, multi-language, product filtering, multi-domain (multi-store) and many other high-end features, if you are processing more than a few hundred products from multiple retailers/distributors Magento will be a better platform. WordPress is easy to get running short-term but does not provide much room for growth, Magento is normally more complex to have running but provides a medium to long term platform.

I would recommend Magento. It is known for being extremely flexible and customizable solution. You can do whatever you want in your Magento shop since you get full access to source code. You can get even more functionality via extensions and addons. It can also boast of high end options and high income results.
So, if you plan to use Magento in the future, there is no need to wait.

Magento is the best for your business purpose. Now a days magento commerce is one of the most excellent Open Source solution which offers peerless control over an eCommerce management system available in the world today.
