What website software allows reviews and rating/voting?

01/27/2012 9:52:00 PM

I basically need to find a piece for website software that will allow me to create pages for different things, and the allow users of the site to review and vote on that thing. Kind of like how online stores have reviews at the bottom for each item, and then there is a rating of "x out of 5 stars" or something.

Essentially, I need to set up something similar to the way angieslist.com works, but for a different subject. I create a page for a given event or business or whatever, and then users can review and rate it, but ALSO post pictures of it and add stories about it and contribute to the page. Kind of like a mix between angieslist and wikipedia.

I use Dreamhost for my web hosting, and they all these "one click installs", stuff like joomla, Zencart, PHPBB, Pligg, etc for things like forums, blogs, online shopping carts, galliers, and stuff like that. I need to find some software like that, that I can install on my web host, that will allow me to set up a site like Ive described.

Does anyone know any good ones? If at all possible, I would prefer something free, or at the very least not insanely expensive.

Joomla is a good choice, there are many Joomla extensions for ratings and voting.

WordPress is also a good choice, again, there are many WordPress plugins for doing this.
