When I've got Drupal or Joomla why would I choose yours? What makes your stuff different from Drupal(+ a custom plugin and theme) or Joomla(+ a custom plugin or theme)?

Mention those on the front page. That should serve as an ad :) And make your site colorful. Pure black-grey-white shades are boring IMO.

If you're a developer and you have Drupal or Joomla, then it's equal whether you choose yours or mine.

If you're an end user and you have Drupal or Joomla and the necessary custom plugins + theme, then it's also equal whether you choose yours or mine.

If you're an end user and you have Drupal or Joomla ONLY, and you don't want to employ a developer to create your custom plugins, then you choose mine.

Or at least, that is the aim.
