Of all the marketing media available to organizations today from the old fashioned business card, yellow page listings, classified ads, flyers, events, classified ad, TV commercial, to the cutting edge social media campaigns via SMS, Facebook, Myspace or Twitter, the heart of this will be your website. It must be a dynamic website which you can change at a moments notice the primary purpose of a Content Management System or CMS system.

A few reasons AVdrive  so often choose to the Joomla CMS for our clients projects:

  1. It is an Open Source project so it’s code has been created by many skilled developers putting in years of development.
  2. The source code is freely available to change if needed to ensure your project long term viability and solid the foundation for your website.
  3. Joomla brings development cost down of a dynamic website down by a factor of 10x over custom developed or commercial solutions.
  4. Your organization may have many processes in  your business cycle can be facilitated by your website extensions. The large worldwide Joomla community developed over 4500 different extensions to the basic function of the CMS.
  5. Your website content can be internationalized and managed using this system.

There are three notable other open source projects we may also recommend for CMS. Wordpress, definitely the choice for most professional bloggers and can be used as a CMS on a limited basis. Drupal might be recommended if there are multiple sites that need to be generated from a single database or other factors that demand some custom development. These three great Open Source projects where put to a test in the SxSW CMS shootout in Austin http://bit.ly/TJkD
