First meeting of your client with the admin panel of WordPress could be scary. Things could go worse if your client is adventurous and loves experimenting.

It will make thing easy for your clients and reduce the risk of getting things messed up for no reason.

Ashwini Sah | Jul 29,2013 |   No Comments |

We have already talked about the open source website scripts in the previous story, WordPress vs Joomla. While these open source scripts deliver a great control over websites, they definitely need a learning curve. You can pretty easily learn beginners essentials e.g buying a domain, webhost etc though our web development tutorial series, but learning about working on WordPress or Joomla like a pro takes a bit of time.

WordPress vs Joomla: Which is the best content management system

Ashwini Sah | Jul 13,2013 |   No Comments |

Having gone through the primary requisites of , and domain mapping, its time to decide how to actually build the pages of your website.

There are several ways to go about it. The most basic and also the most intimidating road to build your web page is to hand code it using programming languages like HTML, CSS and Javascript. The problem with this traditional method  is that it involves a  pretty long learning curve that often scares away the non-tech-savvy user.

This problem was solved with the advent of open source content management systems (CMS) like WordPress and Joomla. These provided a graphical user-interface and considerably reduced the need to learn any of the programming languages. You could just click a couple of buttons here and there and voila! You would have had a page with its most common elements flash on your screen.Read More
