What is Joomla and how can it help me to build my next website?

Joomla has become one of the most requested website software systems for use by professional web developers and designers. This award winning CMS (Content Management System) is available at no cost as an open source online program. Its soaring popularity can be directly traced to adaptive functionality, speedy interface installation and creative flexibility.

The many uses of Joomla!

Joomla is enjoyed regularly by a community of over 200,000 users. As of 2014, it is estimated that their web hosting programs have been downloaded millions of times by users in countries around the globe. At the present time, over 7,000 free and commercial extensions can also be downloaded for use as extensions. Joomla is routinely applied to the development of websites of all lengths, sizes and varieties. These include everything from corporate web portals, government web pages and e-commerce based websites. Developers regularly use Joomla to create both Intranet and Extranet web pages for their high profile clients.

No client is too big or too small

Profit and non-profit websites benefit from its user friendly interface. Schools, local government, community organizations and church affiliated websites gain followers when designed with Joomla. Online publications like newsletters, newspapers and magazines are another way to enhance any client’s online appeal. Web designers also enjoy using Joomla for the creation of their own blogs, business and personal websites.

Joomla improves productivity

Joomla installs easily, making it convenient for users at both entry and advanced levels. An excellent example of this is their quick installation options. Joomla offers a single click installation, allowing new users to have their website up and in running order within a matter of minutes. This simplicity gives website developers and designers the ability to meet client deadlines. Should any user have questions, the ever-expanding Joomla community is both friendly and highly supportive of new members.

A happy client is a return customer

Websites that can be set up and maintained efficiently, make any web professional look good. This is especially true of those who work in competitive markets. As an added bonus, more self-sufficient clients can be taught to manage aspects of their websites on their own. For those clients who require flexibility in their functionality, Joomla has a myriad of extensions available in their Extensions Directory. Not only are most of these extensions absolutely free under their General Public License, but they download quickly as well.
