I think it will depend a bit on what your institution is supporting. I've used WebCT for online courses and have learned (often the hard way) how to make it work. It is an expensive platform that most small places can no longer afford. I don't know Blackboard at all. My current pick for online courses and course web pages (which sounds like what you want to do) is a free and open source system called Moodle http://moodle.org/. It is fairly easy to learn and the price is right.

I am not very familiar with either. Let me know your thoughts. Cheers!
