One difficulty with writing on a subject seemingly black and white (choose A or B) is that it really all shades of gray. The first place it appears in the Tech Talk “is comparable to the definitions and to handle apples and oranges. In other words, the story we make a choice depending on whether Joomla or WordPress (WP) is the best Content Management System (CMS), one of the best designers like which has a code-head as the best or what? Frankly, it falls right in “or what” category.
But seriously, for all their differences, both Joomla and WP as CMS tools are advertised, even if blogging is undoubtedly the most difficult when both are assigned. To be honest, they are both capable tools, which are much happier with the user. Even after reading the Top 10 Reasons to choose Joomla on WP, to meet your needs but in May to call for this and no other. We can tell you why, but you’re the one who has to choose.
In no particular order, here they are, the 10 reasons to choose Joomla on WordPress are:
1. Layout flexibility
Joomla on WP wins this very practice. The attempt to create a blog WP model can create difficulties with the process of a search by style sheets and PHP files to solve a conflict nuisance. In Joomla, this is, however, only the contents as “blog” style, elegant, simple and fast.
2. Pings and trackbacks
PPF has the simple limit here. These two points are important, but not enough to outweigh the other advantages and disadvantages of the Joomla-WP. How big is the gap so far in this race? Not much, but there are eight positions to go.
3. The developer community
One of the greatest things about Joomla is the developer community. An online forum poster wrote about installing a bot especially for placing markers in the right-hand column on this page, but it made a big mess. He sent an e-mail to the developers, and it was fixed within 48 hours, and it was a free extension. Now that the community spirit.
4. SEO’d Title
For many users, Joomla is the magic wand to create redirects. Many developers and designers have been with a different tool-trick pony that would perform all sorts of problems. Switching solutions which means they had to change URLs, which means links from other sites. How do you monitor your logs and see the incoming traffic from the old URL, it is literally a three second job set up redirects to new URL. No messing around with that more.
Joomla 1.5 is a significant improvement compared to 1.0 (the older version) in the URL handling, brings to the standards Wordpress. The next version 1.6 has had even more improvements and tools, Wordpress yet.
5. Internal Links
A sort of second part of the procedure above are internal links. These can be useful for SEO, but no one cares how high you appear in Google search of the classic “read more”. In Joomla, change a few plugins and modules available, and the title of an article in the links.
6. Solid, attractive Observation System
If the commentary JomComment Joomla component showed a few years ago, he fills a big hole and prevented the people on board. Its front end is attractive, it has a robust captcha and it is easy to build into templates. He has also hidden a few niceties like the ability to comment form with Ajax.
If you need a little different from this experience, there are strong candidates in the rest of the community of 3rd party developers.
7. Sidebar Categories
Made Easy. Create a menu and a module with classes blog you want.
8. Well, the RSS service categories May
Run the digital standard RSS feed, you can get a feed from anywhere, so you can exclusively through RSS feeds for each category of your blog. This is very convenient.
RSS Joomla is very powerful. You can easily create an RSS feed on every page of your site with a modified URL. You can quickly and easily access RSS feeds and other sources into your site.
9. “Chicklet”
Chicklets are small icons that let you subscribe to a feed reader with the election. Feedburner created automatically when you simply copy and paste the code into a module. This function embedding HTML (in sections and modules) is a major asset of Joomla.
10. Versatility
WordPress is a very good, very mature blogging tool. It is really very good, but not a CMS like Joomla versatile, because it is not always conducive to a rapidly morphing. If you try to adjust or get WP to do that “something more”, the curve grows very fast.
In summary, you can clearly see that Joomla is a full-fledged CMS that blog too, if what you want. Of course, there are some minor gaps in the toolkit, but the developer community is huge and growing and new solutions are emerging every day. Bottom line? Joomla is a powerful CMS with which you can create and manage your blog, and make every effort to work with CMS that WP can not handle.
