Books : The Joomla Admin Manual: A Step by Step Guide to a Successful Website

- A Must Have!!!
As with all powerful programs it is easy to get lost in the complexity and versatility of Joomla.
Unfortunately for the beginner, or even the not so beginner in a hurry, this wonderland of versatility can be daunting. What is needed is a simple step by step explanation that covers the right topics to get you up and running fast. Barrie North's Joomla Admin Manual is just that. In fact my 19 yo son (who's only exposure to computers is playing World of Warcraft and Counterstrike) is using it to build his Website and having no problem at all in following the manual. If you are new to Joomla and still confused about how to put it all together, or maybe even experienced but looking for some quick guidance. I highly recommend this guide. Five stars, for sure!

- Great for the beginner
I tried Joomla for my site several months ago and couldn't get my head around it. When I began looking for some in depth how-to manuals, I found Barrie's and use it all the time. It's organized logically, provides insight into what Joomla can and can't do and is not a technical manual. Even now that my site is live, I go back to the manual to learn some more and make it even more user friendly.

- This book made the difference for me..
I had been working with other solutions for developing websites and was tentative about using Joomla. Barrie North's book - The Joomla Admin Manual covered all the aspects of Joomla very clearly and answered many questions I had regarding making the site SEO friendly.

I have since recommended This book to many of my friends who are interested in successfully implementing the Joomla CMS and big thanks to Barrie and the team for making it an easy and successful process each and every time.

- Joomla Admin Manual - Useful
Barrie North is one of the reference points on the Joomla landscape. The pace of change in Joomla-land is fast with little time to create documentation before new software iterations occur. This book has been one of the better resources. The Joomla Admin Manual has been a great reference for all the recent versions of Joomla.
It was a godsend for me in starting working with Joomla. It covers the main territory, along with the author's obvious enthusiasm for ensuring Joomla websites are search engine friendly.
I recommend Barrie North's work. I've used the Joomla Admin Manual, his CSS templates and followed his recommendations for SEO and content editors. In general I've found his advice sound. The book presumes a lightly technical way of looking at things and not unexpectedly in view of the pace of change in Joomla-land could do with a bit more careful proofreading in parts. Well worth the money as a quick way in to using Joomla!
