DotNetNuke is a website content management system. So what does that mean? It means that the content of each page on the website is really stored a database and is displayed inside of a "skin" that provides the look and feel of the website -- independent of the content itself.

Now for the real magic... This means with a DotNetNuke website you can:

• Maintain your website from any web browser anywhere, any time!
• Never have to learn HTML, CSS or any other nerdy technology.
• Add, edit and delete pages to your heart's content.
• Move items around on the page in an instant.
• Change the entire look of your website with just a few clicks.
• Easily add powerful modules like blogs, forums and more.

And best of all, DotNetNuke is free! That's right. Free. It is an incredibly popular open source project which means that:

• There are many third-party modules (e.g. photo gallery) for purchase.
• There are many professional skins you can buy.
• There is a large pool of professionals that can help with training and maintenance.
• DotNetNuke is actively maintained and enhanced. The current version of DotNetNuke is 4.9 (not 0.9 like some other systems).

Here is a list of the modules that are included with DotNetNuke. You can start using them right away:

• Announcements - a basic module used for displaying news items on your site.
• Blog - a blog (short for "web log") is like a diary on steriods!
• Chat - allows instant messages to be sent between users.
• Contacts - allows users to store a list of contacts and relevant related information.
• Documents - presents a list of files within DotNetNuke for download by end users. Files can be secured and only downloadable by certain members.
  
• Events - produces a display of upcoming events as a list in chronological order or in calendar format.
• FAQ - allows you to create a list of questions & answers.
• Feedback - can be used to get feedback from users about something on your website.
• Forum - the ability for people to start threads (written conversations or dialogs) and reply to other people's threads.
• Help - a hierachical list of pages (think "table of contents") and their associated content.
• IFrame -  allows the embedding of an internal/external URL (e.g. Google calendar) within the module.
• Links - designed to display user links in several different formats (list, dropdown box) and styles (vertical or horizontal layout).
  
• Map - using the Google Maps API, provides the ability to pump any custom data into the Google Map in a number of unique ways.
• Media - displays images and a variety of other multimedia formats.
• News - also referred to as the ‘News Feeds (RSS)’ module, allows for the display of a ‘news feed’ (e.g. CNN Latest Headlines) on a page.
  
• Reports - provides a simple, but flexible, view on arbitrary data in your database. Useful for custom reports.
  
• Repository - can be used to store a collection of files, images, links or text along with information such as author name and email address, a summary and/or a detailed description, file size and download counts and provides community features such as a User Rating system and User Comments.
• Store - allows you to sell products using either Authorize.Net or PayPal. Features include categories, products, shopping cart, reviews, order history and more.
• Survey - survey your users and see the compiled results whenever you want.
• User Defined Table -allows the creation of a list of records with fields (i.e. a custom database table). Each field gets a dedicated type with various additional options like dropdown selection, input validation, input help text or formatting. The list can be displayed using default grid view or XSL rendering. Grid view can have sorting, paging, filter and search.
• Users Online - presents information about the users in your portal including if they are online or not.
  
• Wiki - a collection of web pages designed to enable anyone who accesses it to contribute or modify content, using a simplified markup language. Think Wikipedia.
• XML - queries XML data, transforms the XML data using an XSL transformation, and returns the result back to the user.

And there are literally hundreds of other modules and skins available from third-parties. You'll find them on sites like the DNN Marketplace and Snowcovered. Or just Google "DotNetNuke" to see how popular it is.
