Introducing an Interesting CMS – Contao (TypoLight)

If you are going to deploy a CMS, I strongly recommend you try this one.

Install Contao with your PHP & MySQL enabled web server, and you will be able to build a professional website in a few minutes, without the knowledge of HTML & CSS & PHP.  The website designed will have a high security standard.  It will also be search engine friendly with the built-in SEO features.  Accessibility has also been accounted for – you do not need to pay any extra effort.

All page layouts, CSS styles, site structure can be defined in the easy-to-use admin interface, and again, you do not need to know any coding to use these functions.

You can also define different user rights for different people.

Extra modules are available for free, and they are professionally created.

The fastest way to know this system is to try their online demo.  At the bottom of the Contao website, live websites using the Contao core are featured randomly.  You will be amazed of what you can do with Contao.

The best of all – it is free.  Apart from a PDF, you will also get free training video.

Make your website iPhone and iPad compatible

iPad 2 has come – and it is going to create another big wave of tablet-type handheld type devices.  But – is your site ready for that?

A while ago I introduced the WPtouch, which transforms your website to be iPhone compatible.  The WPTouch team has now done another good job.  You can use their WPtouch Pro theme to make your website iPad compatible. Get WPtouch Pro!

WPtouch Pro works perfectly well with WordPress.  In fact, it is a plugin, not really a theme. It is fully customizable, and it is independent to the desktop theme of your blog.

It detects the platforms of mobile devices like Android, iPhone, iPad, Blackberry etc, and respond with a theme that works well with these platforms.  If they choose to, they can also switch back to the original desktop theme.

The WPtouch Pro theme starts from $39 for a single user, or a 5-pack of $65.  If you are a web developer, you can buy the bulk pack for $199. Get WPtouch Pro now!
