Joomla Website Development
One of the Content Management Systems (CMS) we use to develop client websites is the award winning Joomla! CMS.
There are many reasons it’s popular. From a client perspective it's easy to use, even for non-technical people, and being open source, it’s freely available to everyone. This means you avoid the expensive developer costs of custom-built platforms. You also avoid incurring additional costs should you decide to move away from your original developer.
Joomla Upgrade Migrations
Channel’s developers have a lot of experience with Joomla, working with it on a daily basis to design and build a variety of sites in every iteration of its development. If you have an older version you are looking to upgrade, we have alot of experience in this area. From Joomla 1.0 through the the most current version.
A website that will grow with your business
As well as being easy to use, requiring only a little training to get the most out of it, it is also highly scalable. So, if this is your very first website, it is possible to start with only the most basic of sites, containing just a few features, making it exceptionally simple to use and update with only the minimum of training. Then, as you grow in confidence and want to build additional features into your site, you can begin to look at the wide array of plugins and extensions that are out there – many of them free to use.
For the more experienced website owner, you can begin almost at once, setting up your site with a wide variety of different plugins, some of which I have listed below. Our developers are also very familiar with many more plugins and are happy to discuss what’s available that will meet your own specific requirements.
Types of Joomla plugins:
- photo galleries
- music
- video
- documents
- shopping carts
- event booking
- user forums
- blogging
- membership directories
- social media feeds
- SEO
Examples of Joomla Extensions:

- Virtuemart
- Kunena
- YouTube
- Docman
