Free Website Content Management Software by Joomla

If you run a website, chances are you know that the more content (pages) you have, the more difficult it is to update them, make changes, and keep them organized.

If you want a great (and free) script that allows you to keep a very neatly organized site, with great themes, plugins/tweaks, and more, you should checkout Joomla.

What is Joomla, and Why a Content Management Software Solution?

Joomla is simply a website script that allows you to professional design your website, and streamline you content publishing.

A content management system is software that keeps track of every piece of content on your Web site, much like your local public library keeps track of books and stores them. Content can be simple text, photos, music, video, documents, or just about anything you can think of. A major advantage of using a CMS is that it requires almost no technical skill or knowledge to manage. Since the CMS manages all your content, you don’t have to.

Overall, Joomla is one of the most popular website script content management systems on the market. Again, this baby is completely free (open source), and customizable to your own website needs.

This is great for so many applications such as:

  • Corporate Web sites or portals
  • Corporate intranets and extranets
  • Online magazines, newspapers, and publications
  • E-commerce and online reservations
  • Government applications
  • Small business Web sites
  • Non-profit and organizational Web sites
  • Community-based portals
  • School and church Web sites
  • Personal or family homepages, and more
  • The only other great script that I would mention is the one I use for most of my blogs by Wordpress.org. Again, these scripts are top-of-the-line, work great, have loads of great features, and are totally free.

    So if you are considering starting a website, or if you are looking for a way to keep track of those old, out-dated HTML pages, at least checkout Joomla. If Joomla doesn’t do it for you, perhaps Wordpress will. In any event, these are both great scripts that can help you realize your dream of being a web-entrepreneur!
