Content Management Systems: The Best Thing To Happen to Web Sites Since Google
Archer Web Solutions builds 99% of our web sites using a robust, flexible open source Content Management System (CMS) called Joomla! that allows for easy updates. Joomla! is a well-tested and long-established open source application that has been in the marketplace since 2005, when it first spun off from 'Mambo', a proprietary CMS originally launched in 2000. Joomla! won the Packt Publishing Open Source Content Management System Award in both 2006 and 2007, and was first runner up in 2008. There are over 4,500 extensions available to the base Joomla! platform, not to mention scores of for-profit developer solutions.
Here are some great things about Joomla!:
- Joomla! works on all browsers, is up-to-date with current web standards, has a world-class architecture, and is well-supported by the developer community.
- Joomla!'s modular architecture makes it easily adaptable to a variety of goals and provides ease of expansion as a site continues to grow. Joomla! allows for the easy creation of dynamic (updatable) content areas linkable to each other and/or to outside sources.
- Joomla has an infinitely expandable capability to create unique landing pages linked to specific marketing campaigns, target audiences or product offerings, with links to site analytics and the ability to determine when a given page goes on- or off-line.
- The Joomla! administrative interface is easy to learn and use, and will allow complete client control over content using well-tested editing paradigms. Anybody with basic word processing skills can easily learn to manage a Joomla! site to add or edit content, update images, and manage critical data.
