A content management system is recommended when;

• the site is complex and large
• regular or frequent updating and new additions are required
• content is managed by multiple editors / contributors
• updating is to be performed from different locations

Web Maestro use and recommend Joomla as the CMS of choice for the following reasons;

• The software is open source with a free-to-use licence thus minimising set-up costs
• The results look professional
• There are many thousands of web sites already using the system
• The system administration is intuitive and easy to use.
• Many useful components are freely available e.g. VirtueMart shopping cart, DocMan document management, events calendar etc.

Our normal package for implementing a CMS based web site includes;
