You have seen the acronym CMS bandied about. What exactly is a CMS, anyway? And do you need one? A Content Management System (CMS) is a development platform for web sites that provides user-friendly content management, usually via a web browser. Instead of needing to know HTML, mySQL, PHP, or other web languages to maintain a web site, a person with little or no technical expertise can add, update or change a site’s web content easily via a web browser interface. If you have a site that needs regular updates and content deployments (and who doesn't these days?), yet don't have a dedicated web guru at your company, a CMS may be the perfect tool for you. Perhaps you want to save on the costs of ongoing site maintenance, or don't want to have to wait until your web development company can address your updates. A CMS will give you control over when and how you update your content.Joomla is a leading open-source CMS for web sites available today. Joomla is non-proprietary and free for anyone who wants to use it. Joomla has a large development community that continually upgrades the platform and builds features for it.  At Sparkem Studio I develop sites in Joomla. One of the major advantanges of an open-source CMS like Joomla is that right out-of-the-box, upon installation, it has many features and add-ons that are de rigueur on contemporary web sites, such as registered user only areas, search boxes, drop-down menus, and a multi-column structure. Because Joomla is open-source, many developers around the world are able to create add-on extensions which can enhance a Joomla site's capabilities. That means you, as a web site owner, have access to the work of many developers, at no cost or a fraction of the cost of hiring someone to develop them for you. Popular Joomla extensions include shopping carts, events calendars, and community forums. As of this writing there are over 4,030 extensions available at joomla.org.With an open source CMS like Joomla, you can quickly and easily get a sophisticated, professional web site up and running that you will be able to update and maintain yourself.
