Joomla Content Management Systems (CMS) are the new words on everyone's lips regarding web design. Joomla websites are suitable for organisations wanting to maintain a long term web presence and for those needing to display a lot of information online. They allow non-web people to edit their websites, reducing the ongoing cost of website maintenance. Plus, Joomla websites look fantastic! What's So Great About Joomla Websites? Joomla websites look great, function well and make it very easy for non web developers to add web pages and content. If you can use Microsoft Word, you can input news, updates or articles into your website, saving on the cost of long term website maintenance. The styling of Joomla websites is much more efficient and this means that sitewide design edits can be completed at the touch of a button, instead of editing every single web page. Joomla 1.5 is a free Open Source application and is preferred by web developers for its reliability and ease of use.

Choosing The Right Hosting Plan It is important to note that not all hosting plans will support Joomla 1.5. A suitable hosting plan has the following attributes: PHP 5.0 Or Above As it can be difficult to find an appropriate hosting plan which will be guaranteed to work with a Joomla website, Influence recommends choosing a Unix Business Hosting Plan or higher on an Australian server, available from HostingBay for a cost of $50 - $130 per year. We have used HostingBay for all of our Joomla websites to date and found it an affordable and reliable option, with servers and support based in Melbourne. If you are unsure which hosting plan you need, purchase the Unix Business Hosting Plan as you can always upgrade hosting later and it won't affect your website. Please retain all documents from your purchase as they contain essential information. We can set up hosting and domain names if you require assistance or you can purchase these items yourself. HostingBay is very helpful in purchasing domain names as it does not charge a hidden cost for domain name hosting.
