Joomla

Joomla provides a unified framework for delivering content for Web sites of all kinds. Joomla can support the changing nature of the Internet and emerging Web technologies.

Joomla is the framework on which I build Content Management Web Sites (CMS). Content Management web sites incorporate a database that holds all the content, data, or information. This allows the web site to be dynamic or change when the information in the database changes. This means the web site's programming code does not have to be edited or changed by a web site programmer to change the information on the database. This saves users money and time by not having to hire a web programmer to make informational changes or even changes to the images or photos. The 'Back-end' or Administrator's interface allows the user with administrative access to make changes to the web site's database without having to know web site programming languages. It operates much like editing or changing a 'Word' or 'Text' document.

Joomla

Joomla provides a unified framework for delivering content for Web sites of all kinds. Joomla can support the changing nature of the Internet and emerging Web technologies.

Joomla is the framework on which I build Content Management Web Sites (CMS). Content Management web sites incorporate a database that holds all the content, data, or information. This allows the web site to be dynamic or change when the information in the database changes. This means the web site's programming code does not have to be edited or changed by a web site programmer to change the information on the database. This saves users money and time by not having to hire a web programmer to make informational changes or even changes to the images or photos. The 'Back-end' or Administrator's interface allows the user with administrative access to make changes to the web site's database without having to know web site programming languages. It operates much like editing or changing a 'Word' or 'Text' document.
