Setting Up a Blog with Joomla

Filed Under: Blogging with Joomla, Seo Basics

First thing you need to do if you want to start you Blog on Joomla is to create the "Infrastructure" for you Blog Posts.

This means that you have to create the structure in Joomla that will give you the right structure so you can easily work you post into your Blog.

1. Create a seperate Joomla Section that will hold the categories for your Blog, you will need this later on if you are going to look at comment components.
Do NOT call it "Blog", but rather something like "Topic Blog".

Reason for not naming the section and category it "Blog" is simply the fact that some SEF components use the "Blog" name in the URL for a Blog based menu link…

2. Create the categories that will hold your blog topics, here is the same restriction not to name it "Blog".

How To Boost your Joomla site Loading Performance

Filed Under: Joomla Optimization, Joomla Seo, Search Engines

I recently came across a post of Alledia about this new Joomla Cache Component.

And since I want you to have a really good performing website I checked it out for you.

It blew me away…

Point is that you can speed up your website by using the cache funtion of Joomla itself and thus gaining some speed in loading you pages.

This component is going to boost your performance (page loading time that is) not simple by 0ne or two percent… no you see loading times drop by double digits percentages!

But there are some things you need to know before installation:

  • The speed gain is for not-logged-in users, that means the visitors to your site, not the members!
  • Some Core files are hacked, but the installation makes backup files and there is an uninstall option
  • You get a text “Powered By Page_Cache by Ircmaxell” under the Footer of you site, but for just $10 dollar you can buy a license file that takes that away… or hack the component code yourself, which is also okay by the developer (You got to Love this Guy..)

Installing the component 

Installation of the component is pretty easy, you just create or copy a few extra files and change permissions on them before installation.
