Joomla and other Content Management Systems (CMS)

A CMS is a piece of web software that makes it easy for you to install, and manage a website without needing to know any programming.

To get into more detail, Typically a  CMS is where a database and a server-side programming language, work together with HTML or XHTML to build the pages that are sent to the browser. The unique fact that there is a database supplying custom information on the server means that the server can build a "custom" page tailored to your exact needs. A page created by a CMS builds the page "on-the-fly" using information from the database and then that page (or actually the pages' HTML) is sent to be interperited by your browser. There are many different Content Management Systems, and a CMS can do many things, it can manage and display your photos (coppermine, gallery2), it can manage your customer relationships (sugar CRM), it can plan your entire companies events (extcal), allow you to blog without limits (Wordpress), you can even commission a custom CMS to be built for a special application. By far the most talked about, implemented and the big bad boy of the CMS neighborhood is Joomla.

Joomla can do many of the above mentioned things all within one CMS because of things called "extensions". Extensions do what you might already be thinking... they "extend" the capabilities of the CMS by implementing new code into the main CMS core code. There are many "free" extensions available in the joomla extension repository, and there are also many that cost a small amount to use.

Would you like to be able to update all of your website content yourself via a simple admin section? We work with many Content management Systems on a daily basis including the Powerful Content Management System "Joomla" and can provide a diverse range of services for customers currently using or wanting to use Joomla (or any other CMS for that matter) as an engine for their websites. Call us at 503-847-5137 or use our quick contact at the bottom of this page if you would like to discuss any of this subject matter further with a CMS professional.

More about Joomla?

joomla_servicesJoomla (formerly known as Mambo) is one of the most powerful Open Source Content Management Systems on the planet. It is used all over the world for everything from simple websites to complex corporate applications. Joomla makes managing your content a breeze and is a powerful reliable solution for anyone wanting to update their website content easily, via an easy to use admin interface, users can log into the backend of their websites and update content, upload images, and add extra features to their website. All of this is accessible from your own web browser and with Joomla, a website costs only a fraction of what it would to be to code all of Joomla`s features.

How much does Joomla Cost?

Believe it or not, Joomla is free software written by an organized group of dedicated code contributors under the GPL License. Other developers around the world have been able to offer services made for Joomla like templates, components, and other add-ons that make it even more dynamically functional.
