Welcome to the Joomla Blog!

Hi, at last I'm starting my own Joomla blog, hopefully I'll have time to update very often with the newest Joomla tips and tricks and any other helpful Joomla articles. Just as the first entry, I would like to recommend the blogging component I use on my site. This is the great MyBlog component by Azrul.

Although I've already published articles on how to create a Joomla blog using freely available components, weare the first to recommend the MyBlog commercial component. This is because in the article featured here, we do show how to setup a free Joomla blog, however we also show that there are a number of missing blogging features which aren't available. And this is where MyBlog! comes to the rescue ... because all features required from a blog are defintely available from this component.

So let's highlight a few of the features available using this great product:

MyBlog! Dashboard

•  Quick search and linking of previous posts while writing a blog entry - one of the essential features whilst blogging is the linking to other blogs you have created in such a manner that keeps your readers on the site as long as possible. MyBlog! allows you to quickly and easily link to any of your previous posts
• Tags / tagclouds - this is one of the features which is great for SEO and great for your users, using tags which allow you to keep your readers interested in related items using tags and tag clouds
• Easy image upload and browsing using MyBlog!'s own image browser
• SEF friendly permanent links for each blog entry - one of the essential features of SEO is incoming links, using permalinks, you can enable quick incoming links to your site from other blogs
