The best content management solution
Hello all,
Once again I have been off doing some research to help you get on the path to building a successful site for your business.
So I have been reviewing a few different content management systems from free to fee paying. The problem that most companies find is choosing the right one for their business that falls in line with budget spend.
The most common pitfalls found with CMS
- Full of bugs and unstable
- The final site output structure is not search engine friendly
- Backend system can be most confusing to a novice user
- Higher end Content management systems cost an arm and leg
- Features on free and lower end systems are limited
- Finally it does not do what it say’s on the box
Now With all that negativity out of my system I have excellent news for all my readers in seo land. The system that I found to be the best, is a free open source software called Joomla.
Joomla is content management system that just damn well has it all, the only thing you really have to pay for is some Plug-ins. My next task was to find a company that specialises in Joomla design and development at affordable prices. While searching I came across a company called Jenerate.com, they provide full Joomla packages including Seo solutions.
Check out what the head of Jenerate.com had to say to me about Joomla.
Why is Joolma such a good solution for small to large size businesses?
Joomla has a powerful extensible framework with a large community supporting it and creating components for it. It provides all the required CMS functions and has many standard options for SEO as well as a myriad of additional components to further tweak it for SEO.
How easy is it to work with it from the development side?
Joomla is a framework which facilitates the development of custom components. Its whole reason for being is to allow rapid creation and customisation of components while keeping within a standard framework. This Framework also isolates the design from the backend allowing designers to tweak the look and feel of sites without needing to touch any of the component code.
My final verdict
Even though the Joomla content management system is free, branding a site with the look and feel you want is always going to be an issue and can cost quite a lot when outsourcing and paying per hour. If you cannot afford to be paying mental amounts of cash then Jenerate is most definitely your best solution as the quality of their service is second to none and a large portfolio can be seen on the jenerate.com site.
Hope this info sets you on a path to your success
Cheers,
Neil

There is a new social kid on the block with a nice zest to them. I recently stumbled onto this new site called Zestbit.com , it kind of reminds me of squidoo but way more cool. The idea is to create your own zest page with a twist and talk about whatever you want, its almost like creating a mini cookbook except they have loads of widgets that can help you make some cash from the area that you are covering. Zestbit.com have all the plug ins needed to be a popular site ,social tags,rss,widgets the lot . so why not give it a try and head on over and add your twist on life.
