I use Joomla CMS to build your website

I build websites using Joomla, which is an award-winning content management system (CMS) that keeps track of every piece of content on your web site, much like your local public library keeps track of books and stores them. Content can be simple text, photos, music, video, documents, or just about anything you can think of. A major advantage of using a CMS is that it requires almost no technical skill or knowledge to manage. Since the CMS manages all your content, you don't have to.

Many aspects, including its ease-of-use and extensibility, have made Joomla the most popular web site software available.

About Joomla! Joomla is Powerfully Extensibile
Below is a list of what a Joomla website can do "out of the box." The real power of a Joomla website, though, is in the way you customize it.  Visit the Joomla Extensions Directory to see thousands of ways to enhance your web site to suit your needs.

Here is what a Joomla website can do "out of the box":

About Joomla!Content Management System (CMS)
Creating content is simple with the WYSIWYG editor, giving even novice users the ability to combine text, images in an attractive way. Once you've created your articles, there are a number of pre-installed modules to show the most popular articles, latest new items, newsflashes, related articles, and more.
About Joomla!Simple Website Management with WYSIWYG Editing
Add and edit content, and build your pages with our easy-to-use web-based editor.

Easily access the html code for any text on your site by clicking the toggle button in your editor - this allows you to move back and forth between visual editing and code view.

Satisfaction Guarantee

Here's how it works:

The fee for each stage of work is payable in advance. It acts as a retainer, and is refundable if you are not satisfied. It's simple: You only pay for the next stage when you are satisfied with the previous one. At that point, the retainer on the previous stage is no longer refundable. NOTE: Website packages are payable in one stage.

"Good morning Kerry. On behalf of the Peruvian Canadian Cultural Association, ACULPECA, I would like to thank you for your outstanding re-design of our website. Thanks to your efforts and dedication, we now have an easy-to-read, versatile, and user-friendly web page, which incidentally has greatly helped our fundraising event executed back on July 19 in conjunction with UNICEF. Best regards." JT Aburto, ACULPECA
 
"If you are considering Kerry for website design or consultation - look no further! She is a complete genius! I previously had a website that was very costly. It looked very pretty, but did nothing for me. After desperately searching for someone to help me redesign my site, I stumbled onto Kerry's ad for web design. She was a breath of fresh air! Not only did she help me convert my site to one that I could edit myself, she also helped me add all the interactive features that I wanted on the previous site. She also took the time to show me how to make updates myself. I can honestly say, I have had an increase in business since she helped me redesign my site. I'm so glad I found her! Thanks again for everything!" Maria Runco, Pleased2Announce
 
"I would like to say that I am very pleased with how my site looks and how fast it was done. I also want to say that the site is very easy to navigate and I have gotten very many compliments on how it looks. I had no problems expressing my needs as a client to the site designer and I was very happy on how the site was set up and explained to me. Kerry was also a very helpful with suggestion on how to make my site work for me. She listen carefully to all my question and pointed me in the right direction. I am very happy to recommend Kerry."
