If you are looking to build your own website and have little or no HTML / CSS experience, then I would recommend sourcing a template / theme for Joomla or Wordpress that suits your needs and use that as your starting point. Many template clubs offer an install and config services which might make things easier for you also.
In order to have a serious web site that's viable for the future, you would absolutely need a CMS, whether custom or pre-made. That said, here are some things to keep in mind regarding custom-built CMSes: 1) This can be VERY expensive (especially when you consider all the features you'd need, such as a strong, extensible API for plugins, a templating system, and of course the all-important API, etc.). A coder's time is very valuable. And you'd want a TEAM of coders to take on something this complex. Your site timetable would need to be realistic for such a complex undertaking. Quality complex CMSes aren't built in a day, or even a week. 2) Updating/upgrading when there are changes in PHP, MYSQL or any other pertinent software, or to keep up with changing software architectural standards or the all-important security patches and fixes. 3) Bugs, which all code has. Your developers would need to be able to deliver you something reasonably stable, and as thoroughly tested as possible within a reasonable amount of time. Remember, this CMS would only be YOURS, so you wouldn't get feedback from thousands of webmasters who can provide technical feedback from the field. YOU would have to find the bugs and YOU would have to work with the developers to fix them. Custom CMS development does have its advantages, but only if you have the time and resources (money) to handle at a minimum all of the above. Do you really want to deal with all of that AND be responsible for webmastering, content management, membership, etc? If you have the money and timetable for enterprise-level development, then of course you can do literally whatever you want. However, if you are starting out with relatively little capital, your best bet fiscally is probably to take one of the "canned" CMS and customize that to your specifications. Take the time to get to know each of the CMS platforms well, especially their features, and determine what's best for you. If you want to "ramp up" quickly, pick the CMS that has a lot of plugin options. You will be able to switch later on if/when you are ready. Whatever you do, just make sure you are informed and well aware of the pluses and minuses of your decision.
So you are looking to achieve this future,good reputate and good quality site as well as earn. Well mate. Ill go for CMS - Content Management System is where Wordpress and Joomla is all about. Rather than putting a manually static page in the web, use a CMS for your site. So easy to learn and keeps growing and growing 1."BLOGGING IS THE FUTURE" 2. Reputable? Your site wouldn't be reputable if you're just doing a one way interaction like selling and selling horrible products. Its always a two way communication. Give and take they say. How can you give? Blog. Share good information in relation to your products. And when you do this thing right you'll get your profits for sure. 3. High Quality? Yeah. I'm a wordpress user and i use wordpress because it has so many things to offer. So many themes to be customed. I don't know if i should try Joomla. But since birth I've been a wordpress fanatic. ....So get into it Whatever you choose. Still its your nutshell and your pocket will do the suffering if you fail on this thing.LOL
It all depends on your needs. If simply need a blog, CMS, forum, why not install an already existing application. If you need to add the functionality of those mentioned above then extend them (refers to application that can be extended of course, propriety ones might get you in legal trouble). If you need something more direct to your needs, do it from scratch
suppose if i used joomala ,but i did not like template of joomala ,then can i create template by using HTML and PHP ? as i want.after made.can i upload on joomala?
Moneywant, you can readily change the look of Joomla using templates without having to hack anything or do any coding if you don't want to. There are literally dozens of professional template clubs available where you can purchase a membership (fairly inexpensively) and choose for a lot of templates. Here are just a few pro theme club options (no particular order): Gavick Pro (http://www.gavickpro.com) Joomla Art (http://www.joomlart.com) Rocket Theme (http://www.rockettheme.com) Joomla Bamboo (http://www.joomlabamboo.com) Yootheme (http://www.yootheme.com) Template Plazza (http://www.templateplazza.com) Joomla Junkie (http://www.joomlajunkie.com) Joomla XTC (http://www.joomlaxtc.com) Another bonus of the theme clubs is that a lot of them include extensions as well, so you get extra value for your dues. Also, the major clubs offer support, so if you have any problems the teams there will help you. You can also find free ones, but the quality will vary widely. My favorite "free" theme site of the moment, because I really like clean design that isn't script-heavy, is Template Works (http://www.templateworks.com). There are only a few themes there at the moment, but they are very nice Joomla ports of CSS themes, and I have bookmarked them for future reference. Just track down a template you like, and use it while you learn PHP and HTML a little better. Then you can start creating your own themes. Hope this helps!
Bratzilla, thanks for those resources, very useful I think the last one should be http://www.templateworks.net/ (not .com) ? Cheers
