I am a seasoned and very experienced web development, design, and print media professional. I am not new to servicing clients or working in an atmosphere like this in an independent contractor environment. I ask that you allow me to work with you and build a long-term relationship as your ongoing support when needed. I provide high quality, speed, and professionalism while working on projects. I have been in the industry for over 40 years, providing professional and creative experience in web development, graphic design, and print media. Over my long career, I have been honored with just under 100 awards for my development and design. This presents a potent combination and foundation for longevity for building an ongoing business relationship, which I strive for with every client I work with. I require minimal direction and can easily adapt to different situations and manage a wide array of projects while ensuring deadlines are met promptly, which is what you can come to depend on. I have never been late on a deadline unless my client has delayed the project on their side. My expertise is in Joomla. I am considered an expert. I prefer to custom-design templates for sites as they provide greater freedom for growth, while templates tend to be rather constricting. I do not have any issues working with templates of any client's choice, but I will always recommend a custom design over a template. I have worked with every Joomla core and am well-versed in it. I have done hundreds of core migrations. I can do almost anything within the Joomla structure. If you know anything about Joomla, it's one of the best CMS systems today. This is why I have chosen to become an expert in this field. I have worked with Joomla since its release in 2005 and have spent countless hours on the software. I am very creative in web, graphic, print, and logo design, video design, and execution of innovative and interactive Joomla and HTML websites, graphic, and print materials, which allows me great flexibility during projects. I have worked with WordPress, Drupal, Blogger, Moodle, DotNetNuke, Tumblr, Visual Studio C#, Weebly, HTML, Open Cart, Magneto, Square, and OS Commerce, just to name a few. I would rate myself as experienced on most of these systems, but I am an expert in Joomla. I am one of the most sought-after Joomla Web Developers and designers in the industry. I work well in any type of setting, whether it's individually or in a team setting. Finally, I am flexible and easy to work with. I can coordinate and direct all phases of any project and will help things move smoothly. I extend these high standards to all my clients to ensure top-notch service and satisfaction. I believe communication, as well as a high degree of ethics and professionalism, is key, and I meet every task with these high standards. Adhering to these practices on a daily basis has resulted in many successful projects and many happy clients over the years. My reputation has been that I go the extra mile for my clients. I tend to be very creative and find solutions to clients' requests and needs, which sometimes requires unconventional thinking. I am not associated with an agency. I work independently on projects/jobs for various clients. Portfolio: I have hundreds of samples of my work. If you would like to see more, please ask for anything specific when I bid on your work, and I will gladly supply it accordingly. Thank you in advance for the opportunity.

Hello, my name is Aleksej Khoroshevskij. I was born in Kharkiv (Ukraine) and I live there. Since about 2008 to the present day, I have been developing websites on Joomla and WebSite X5. I also provide services in their modernization, SEO promotion, PPC advertising (Ads), protection against hacking and website speed up. In 2009, I graduated from Kharkiv National Economic University (Faculty of Economic Informatics) with a degree in Computerized Technologies and Systems of Publishing and Printing Production (Master's degree). In 2015 I defended the dissertation (PhD) in speciality of Information Technology at Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics (name on diploma - Khoroshevskyi Oleksii Ihorovych, taking into account the spelling of the name in Ukrainian). The dissertation was devoted to Web-to-print based on Joomla. At the graduate school and after graduation, I taught disciplines related to multimedia publications and printing (laboratory works, practical works, term papers and theses). I have a blog since 2010. There are also other personal projects. I do everything myself: starting from the idea to implementation, analysis and modernization. I write blog posts myself. In addition, I post my own interfaces translations of various Joomla extensions in Russian and Ukrainian. I have been freelancing since 2014: mainly developing websites and online stores on Joomla (Freelancehunt.com, Freelance.ua, Free-lance.ua). In 2015, I opened a YouTube channel and began selling my WebSite X5 video tutorials in the Russian language. In 2016, I released another paid video tutorials in the Russian language, and in 2019 - in English (I also started blogging in English). I am one of the moderators of the WebSite X5 technical support forum. In 2018, I registered as an individual entrepreneur (something like Sole Proprietorship in the USA) and continued developing websites. By the way, my individual entrepreneur registration date coincides with the birthday of Joomla.

Joomla! vs. WordPress

There are plenty of content management systems (CMSs) on the market, and some have more similarities between them than others. Two that come very close in terms of pros and cons are Joomla! and WordPress. Content management systems (CMSs) come in two broad categoriesโ€“those that emphasize ease of use and those that emphasize functionality and customizability. In the latter category, WordPress and Joomla! are two of the best options.

Both are free, open-source, and easy to set up and useโ€”with a few different nuances. So which is the right choice for your site or application? In this article, weโ€™ll compare two top CMS platforms, Joomla! and WordPress, to help you decide which one is best for you.

An intro to Joomla!

Joomla! is an award-winning free CMS that really does it all, balancing both extensibility and ease of use. It powers millions of websites and applications of all types: think anything from personal blogs to corporate portals and intranets. Itโ€™s built with PHP and MySQL (or MS SQL, or PostgreSQL), which makes it easy to install and set up for any developer whoโ€™s familiar with these technologies. No need to be super advanced, but Joomla! does require a bit more technical skill than WordPress out of the gate. As with WordPress, youโ€™ll need to download Joomla! and set up your own hosting.

If youโ€™re looking to build an ecommerce store or a social networking-style application, Joomla! performs as well or better than most other CMS options. Once youโ€™re set up, updating and maintaining a Joomla! site is on par with WordPress. Should you need to add additional, special functionality, Joomla has thousands of extensions (many are free) in its Extensions Directory. These extensions come in a few different forms: languages; plugins; components, which are the most complex; files and packages; and modules, which are similar to WordPress widgets. You can find extensions for anything, from image galleries and slideshows to script integrations, URL redirects, and ecommerce functionality.

The core Joomla! Framework is different than the Joomla CMS, and it gives developers the ability to create PHP-based applications without the overhead that comes along with the whole CMS package. Hire a skilled Joomla! developer to leverage the Framework to do things like build integrated ecommerce systems with product catalogs and inventory control systems, add on handy reservation systems to a restaurant site, or integrate data reporting tools.

Sites that are powered by Joomla include Nintendo Nordic, Harvard, Linux, and The Hill.

An intro to WordPress

WordPress is free, open-source, and powered by PHP, HTML, JavaScript, AJAX, CSS. Through the use of plenty of plugins, themes, and widgets, a WordPress site can be incredibly customizable and extensible, making it a good fit for small to medium-sized sites all the way up to more complex builds (which require the help of a skilled WordPress developer). Publishing content, updating plugins, and version updates are all very straightforward for beginners, and the security is excellent.

The more you want out of a WordPress site, the more it can be helpful to get a developer to work with you. With WordPress, you get what you put inโ€”and the possibilities can be endless. The Advanced Custom Fields plugin gives admins even more control over how content and data is displayed, adding complexity where you need it to WordPressโ€™s famously user-friendly admin panel. The Genesis Framework also streamlines development and gives you access to a ton of themes.

Sites that are powered by WordPress include TechCrunch, Walt Disney Co., the LinkedIn blog, and BBC Americaโ€™s impressive multisite WordPress install.

Similarities

  • Both offer a selection of templates. Customizable templates are the basis for designing your website whichever service you go with, though itโ€™s worth noting that WordPress has more themes available than Joomla!
  • Both have powerful developer APIs. The WordPress APIs also cover everything from metadata and HTTP to databases, theme customization and plugins. Joomla! has APIs for both its CMS and its Framework.
  • Both extend core functionality with add-ons. In WordPress, 45,000+ free plugins and themes are how developers can customize and add functionality. For Joomla, thatโ€™s components, extensions and plugins, and there are around 7,000+ available.
  • Both are free and open-source. With WordPress.org, you will need to arrange your own hosting and domain, but the software is free. Premium themes and plugins can cost more, too. Joomla! is free, too, with similar back-end requirements.
  • Both require installation, setup, and hosting. Also, both have โ€œone click installation.โ€ They require you to download the CMS, install it, and set up hosting and purchase a domain. Also, both regularly release new versions in cycles, which require updates to plugins, extensions, and templates, etc.
  • Both offer mobile responsive themes. A mobile WordPress site can be easily run on the same domain. Mobile Joomla! Is a great mobile extension, and Joomla! also supports Twitter Bootstrap.

Differences

  • Joomla! has out-of-the-box multilingual support. The content language you choose can be selected under the Languages Manager in the admin area. WordPress has excellent plugins to offer multilingual support, too, so both are pretty on par.
  • Mobile apps for admins. WordPress has a native app for updating your site on mobile; Joomla! does not have a proprietary one, but there are third-party ones available.
  • Joomla! has unit testing and system testing built in. This helps you see what is working on your site and where thereโ€™s room to improve. You can get similar services for WordPress through a plugin like Optimizely that allows you to run split, multivariate, and A/B testing on your site.
  • Joomla! has support for MySQL, MS SQL and PostgreSQL. WordPress just supports MySQL.

So which platform is right for your project?

In summary, the comparison between these platforms really comes down to two things: your skill level, and the complexity of your project. WordPress has a pretty massive following, and itโ€™s easy to see why: itโ€™s easy to learn and not hard to find your way around. But Joomla! has so many similarities and is very on par with its own ease of use.
