I post this PDF for all the people who need this one.
I try to make [url=http://www.uniwarestore.com/]housewares[/url] go top on Google, but not that easy.
1. http://www.uniwarestore.com The main purpose of an article directory or in other words an article
submission website is to allow bloggers, content writers, freelance writers, journalist, authors and
anyone in general, to submit his/her article to the website. In the recent past, we have seen websites
like ezinearticles, articlebase, associated content growing phenomenally huge and attracting thousands
of writers, and thereby receiving millions of pages-views and revenues. So if you too, want to develop a
website with almost all the features that are currently available in any of the above mentioned websites,
then probably Joomla would be the best choice for you. Some of the most essential requirements of a
website like this are:
Requirements
1. Registration of New Users
2. Email verification of registered users
3. Login of existing users
4. User control panel
5. A simple framework for allowing users to submit their contents.
6. Framework for enabling users to adding image and multi-media to their contents.
7. Content Moderation by Content Managers.
8. Publishing of approved contents.
9. The writers or authors should be able to manage their articles from the control panel.
10. Revenue sharing program. (optional)
11. Comment system below your article.
12. And etc.
How to develop it with Joomla?
Well, Joomla is the most powerful content management system of the world. Many webmasters
regard Joomla as the mighty CMS via which one could eventually develop anything. Mainly
Joomla is used in two formats (a) Default Joomla (b) Extended Joomla. For developing a robust
article directory, you need to add various extensions to your default Joomla, which will
ultimately convert it to Extended Joomla. Some of the most popular extensions that could help
you to provide the above mentioned features in your website are (a) K2 -The powerful content
component for Joomla! (b) Article Factory Manager thefactory.ro (c) Azul My Blog Component.
K2 -The powerful content component for Joomla!
K2 is an award winning, and perhaps one of the most powerful components ever developed for
managing Joomla contents. I used K2, in almost all my Joomla websites and let me tell you that,
it rocks. Well, K2 includes each and every feature for letting your visitors to submit their articles.
Below each article it automatically displays the author information, author thumbnail picture,
number of content hits and etc. To the best of my knowledge, it appears to me that if, you want
to develop a website like ezenarticles or articlebase or associate content or any other allied
website then, k2 will be the best choice for you. Even you can develop a huge Magazine website
using these components.
2. Well, during the early days for an average Joomla webmaster it will be little difficult to work
with K2, but definitely he or she will get the benefits of his hard work latter.
Article Factory Manager thefactory.ro
The second most successful component used for developing powerful article directories is the
Article Factory Manager component developed by thefactory.ro. Well, the beauty of this
component lies in its simplicity. K2 is big and complicated but this one is extremely simple and
user-friendly. Thus many webmasters prefer to use this component.
Some of its features
1. The component includes fantastic features for managing your contents.
2. It has the most simplified content submission system ever developed for Joomla.
3. Authors can review and re-submit their articles.
4. Quick content moderation system.
5. Powerful restricted groups, categories and section for restricted users.
6. Writers resources box
7. And many more options.
Azul My Blog Component
Another interesting component that is used my Joomla webmasters are Azul My Blog
Component. Well, this is the simplest yet, the most powerful component I have ever seen. It
includes many Ajax features for quick submission and moderation of articles. Moreover, it
includes a number of features like:
1. Inbuilt image uploading and managing system.
2. Enhanced tagging system.
3. Video embedding features.
4. In build word counting system.
5. Pagination system.
6. Quick content search system.
7. RSS feeds
8. Powerful admin front end and backend.
9. It supports system like SMF, Community Builder, Gravatar.
10. Robust community builder integration system
11. And etc
Although, there are other extensions available in the market but I found the above three, as the
most influential components in our Joomla community. However, here, a big questions bubble in
my mind: - Is it possible to develop an article submission website without using any of the
above-mentioned extensions? Well, definitely, it is possible to do so, but you will not be able to
provide all the features in your website. But if you are a strong worshipper of simplicity then you
may use the below given system for developing your next author based website.
3. Article Submission Website with Default Joomla
It's extremely simple, just install default Joomla and make your website ready. Create menu,
image or anything title "Submit Article". Now create an article submission form using coffee cup
and integrate it to your Joomla using an inline-frame. Now users can submit their articles using
this form, and when they do so, the article will be emailed to your provided email id so that you
can moderate it for publishing. Later on you can create and make a user account and send it to
the personal email id of the author. This will enhance your personal relationship with your
authors and contributors.
Although this system sounds a little bit odd, but I think, if you don't have a big project in hand,
then why to waste your value valuable time in developing robust feature, why not to go with the
beauty of simplicity.
But on the other hand, if you want to really develop a potential website like the one you're
reading now, then you need to use customized version of one of the above mentioned extensions.
But, unless and until you have a proper master plan for your next dream portal, don't start
anything.
To sum up, it could be conclude that Joomla is the most powerful content management system
using which you can easily develop a robust website like ezenarticles( most difficult one, do not
waste my time, I try to submit housewares relative articles all get reject), articlebase, associate
content and etc. And for enhancing your features you may use either of K2 -The powerful
content component for Joomla! Article Factory Manager Thefactory.ro, Azul My Blog
Component or anything.
"The greatest Joomla extension is not availed inside Joomla extensions directory, rather it is
abundantly available within our brains."
