Web Design and Hosting the Aloha Way

AlohaServe.net specializes in providing hosting and support for websites created using the Joomla! Content Management System (CMS). Joomla! is a complete website operating system created using PHP (Programmable Hypertext Protocol) and runs on a Unix-based web-server.

If you're new to web publishing systems, you'll find that the Joomla! CMS delivers sophisticated solutions to your online needs. It can deliver a robust enterprise-level website, empowered by near endless extensibility for your publishing needs. Moreover, it is very often the system of choice for small business or home users who want a professional looking site that's simple to deploy and use.

We do content right. So what's the catch? How much does this system cost? Well, there's good news... and more good news! Joomla! is free, released under an Open Source license. Had you invested in a commercial alternative, there'd be nothing but moths left in your wallet.

Joomla! is set to change all that... Joomla! is different from the normal models for content management software. For a start, it's not complicated. Joomla! has been developed for everybody. It's licensed under the GNU/GPL license, easy to install and administer and reliable. Joomla! doesn't even require the user or administrator of the system to know HTML to operate it once it's up and running
