So what is and why use *Joomla? Joomla uses a database and extensive use of PHP programs to make building and updating your website simpler and less time consuming than conventional means.

Conventional method is writing your page in HTML code, either by your own coding or by using a program to convert your input to the relevent HTML code, uploading this to your remote server host using an FTP program and the result is the page will be available to see via the internet as this diagram shows:



The *Joomla system reduces the processes by:

Having built in 'Word' type editors, no code to write!

Sends your pages to the remote server with built in FTP program



Once you have your site how you want it, it only takes a few minutes to update or change the layout of your pages.
