I have a site where I expect heavy volume due to a TV appearance on the History Channel and Bio Network. My site <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.ez-iq.com" rel="ugc">www.ez-iq.com</a><br />
<br />
as it currently loads would be crushed if I get a large number of hits:<br />
<br />
I am considering keeping the site as Static HTML but removing the sliders and making the home page much quicker to load. Also there are error on load due to missing query files, etc. But I am also considering Drupal. <br />
<br />
I may be getting ahead of myself, but I understand Drupal is more scalable due to the framework which reduces the odds of a programming error causing the site to be unstable.<br />
<br />
Is that true? And is it true for a tiny site like mine?<br />
<br />
I can really fix that site up in three weeks, and plan to. Or I could switch platforms to Drupal and be more ready for growth into a platform it seems I would not outgrow.<br />
<br />
Please give me some advice.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Converting my static HTML site to Drupal?

Drupal is an open-source content-management framework written in PHP used as a back-end framework for websites and is also used for knowledge management and business collaboration. The standard release of Drupal contains basic features common to content management systems, including user account registration and maintenance, menu management, RSS feeds, taxonomy, page layout customization, and system administration. Drupal runs on any computing platform that supports both a Web server capable of running PHP and a database to store content and configuration.

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the main markup language for creating web pages and other information to be displayed in a web browser, providing both the structure and content for what is sent from a web server through the use of tags. The current implementation of the HTML specification is HTML5.

HTML

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.
