Welcome

Hi and welcome to the 10FX website design blog. We will be updating this page regularly with information about general website design and will also post interesting I.T. tidbits. As we specialise in Joomla website design many of the posts here will relate to Joomla extensions that we review. There are many great resources on Joomla extensions though it can be a difficult to find what your looking for unless you know what's available! So keep an eye on this blog for our latest reviews, this is also be a great place for customers to learn about the latest extensions that can be integrated into their website. 10FX is based in Gidgegannup servicing the Swan, Mundaring, Midland and Perth Hills area.

So to start off with lets answer the question what is Joomla and what is an extension?

Joomla is the leading open source website portal/ content management system, it allows website designers to create highly customised websites that can be customised to an almost infinite number of configurations. Being a content management system or CMS it allows every page or article to have an owner, this allows the website designer to give the business or website owner a username and password to easily edit content directly from the website it self. There is no need to call the web designer or use any special software to make a change for example if you want to add or remove a product or want to change a contact phone number on your website.

Extensions are modules that can be install into Joomla, these allow you to do a range of wonderful things. There are extensions to allow people to sign up to a news letter that the website will automatically distribute, media showcase extensions to show a slide show, song or video on your website, forum extensions and e-commerce extensions which allow you to have a full online store just to name a few.
