Thanks for visiting!

I would like to thank each and everyone of you for taking the time to visit my page. And thank you so much for signing my guestbook. Not everyone takes the time to do this. All your kind words mean a great deal to me and that's what keeps me making more pages for you to enjoy. It is very exciting to see who has been here and where you are from. I also love to visit the home pages of those who have been here. There are a lot of wonderful home pages you can find by viewing my guestbook. If you are coming from one of my websites I mentioned here. Then check out the rest of my home page for more sites and some beautiful music I have found for my pages. So have fun! And come back soon!

Create your own website

If you are looking into creating a website or re-creating your own website... heres a list of CMS ( Content Management System) choices I would like to share with you. Some are free, some are hosted, and some are industry specific. All of these platforms are quite different from one another, but all have some great attributes. Well, at least most of them. I have tried a dozen myself which might help you as well.

1. Joomla!: Believed to be the most powerful, diverse open source CMS in the world. Check it out. I have created a couple of sites using Joomla and its rocking Laughing some sites are: Poumai.com, Trendyparlour.com, AoArogo.com.... and more to come. In fact I am planning to use Joomla for most of my clients websites from now. Well... Joomla is free... Get your copy at Joomla.org

2. Wordpress: Wordpress is one of the most popular CMS available, it is used primarily by bloggers but it can still be used as a general CMS - it is available for free from Wordpress.org . Wordpress is free!

3. Php-Nuke: This is the CMS we used for creating Nagalim.co.uk. Its one of the most popular CMSes in the open source world. It can be used for any type of websites you want to create. News, newsletter, magazines, Social networking, and almost everything. However you should be smart to choose which version of Nuke should be used for your site. The versions above 7.6 are not advisable because of some major security issues. Instead use RavenNuke CMS which is an advanced CMS modified from PHpnuke.
We (nagalim.co.uk) have upgraded our website from Phpnuke to RavenNuke and We are happy about it because of so many good reasons Wink RavenNuke is Free!

Thats all for now..
