• If your website looks like Bertha, then you should read on.
• If your website looks like Vanessa… congratulations!
• If you want to stop Vanessa turning into Bertha, read on.
• If you don’t have a website and you like the look of Vanessa… read on.

Vanessa is vibrant, sassy, sexy, young and fresh. She changes her appearance as often as possible and makes sure she always looks her absolute best. She wants to give you a knock-out impression. She is exciting and stimulating. Everyone likes visiting Vanessa again and again.

And then there is Bertha. Bertha is starting to look old and worn out. Bertha is still wearing the same clothes she had on last month and the month before that and even the month before that. Yeah, she’s wearing sequins… but old ones - and the sparkle has gone. Not many people visit her but you can still find Bertha all over the world wide web. If you want a Bertha website, you won’t have any problem finding someone to throw one together for you.

Joomla! Wins 'Best CMS Award' Again!

For the second year in a row Joomla has won the ‘Best PHP Open Source Content Management System” award for 2007.

Runner up was Drupal and e107.

The judges made some very interesting observations:
“Most notably its good front-end for administrators and end-users, which gives users a simple and traditional company website straight out of the box. Once again, judges commented on the size and responsiveness of the community, which translates to potential problems being dealt with quickly.”

Packt Publishing confirmed that Joomla! 1.5 (which is still a Release Candidate) was the basis for their decision.

The judges also gestured that Joomla! is one of the biggest recent success stories in open source. The first release was only in September 2005 and has since grown to become the most downloaded CMS on the planet.

Here’s the Proof… Powerful Linking Strategy works!

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

In my last post about ‘Powerful Linking’ on the Navaga Bem Blog I reported on how you can get an enormous boost in traffic and business by using a blog for your company site.

My post was made on October 29th in the afternoon - On October 30th the next morning a search in www.google.com for ‘Powerful Linking‘ produced a page 1 - position 1 result.

Even I have never seen such a fast return. I am now in position 2 with the digg.com article in first place.

If you missed that article, you can read it here. This is a strategy that works and is the fastest way to get more traffic and business for your company website.
