Introduction


Websites exist to communicate information to their intended audience. Using a content management system such as Joomla!, makes managing the content even easier.

Joomla! gives you the ability to add content to our sites and manage it. By attaching the content to menus we have a great means for our audience to interact with and consume our content.

You will learn how to set up the basics of a SECTION and a CATEGORY to hold and manage content.

Menus are important and Joomla! can have as many menus or as few as you want. The trick is to use menus in a manner that makes sense for your site and follows prescribed best practices for usability. An example may be you want your visitors to purchase your goods or services. In that event, you would not want to bury your "BUY NOW" button behind three menus. Make it easy for them to do business with you.
