If the task is to quickly launch a blog - then WordPress .

If this is a programming question - write your blog engine on the introductory lesson for the Yii framework.

  • Yii itself is quite cumbersome. besides WordPress there are cms for blog? - IVsevolod

    Ready solution blogger.com (by Google) Of course, Joomla will do, but for me it’s too cumbersome and unsafe. And of course it is better to write yourself, if you have the knowledge, time and nerves. - mccrush

    MaxSite is still there, and in the extreme case of Drupal - see the finished builds, there are many of them for all occasions))) You can try to do it yourself at CodeIgniter'e. - ghost rider

    > Yii framework itself is quite cumbersome. @ivsevolod: “Do you need to hang the lope in grams?”) No, really, Yii is “pretty” heavy, in your opinion, from memory, files, or percents. loads - what do you measure and how? WordPress with WPSuperCache is very efficient and fast, “do not underestimate the Force” :) - Sergiks
  • Wordpress is fast, simple in structure, a wagon of plug-ins and themes, just to finish and easily expand. - pshentsoff

There is also Yupe . She is on yii.

  • again, for JupĂ©, as far as I know, I need a framework YII, which is quite cumbersome ... - IVsevolod

    @IVsevolod 2 comments and everything from you that Yii is bulky. Are you talking about its size of 20Mb? Do you have a 10mb limit on your hosting? Or just broke to read about him? I would choose Yupe because he is better than WP unequivocally. But I have my own blog on Yii, and now is expanding, and quite quickly. - Artem
  • @IVsevolod is also not completely clear to me by what criteria it is cumbersome. - iamsalnikov
  • On Yii, I write at work :) I’m probably uploading 20 MB of FTP to scrap, and update it periodically. - IVsevolod
  • composer update? :) - digi

If you don’t like to write yourself and Framework do not like it, write it yourself on the "bare" PHP. I started it about 2 weeks ago, almost everything is ready ...
