It doesn't show the number of searches (probably milions) but you will see that it give us a clue where Joomla is compared to Mambo. |

It's the timeless question: how do you get other sites to link to you? The most commonly discussed ways are reciprocal linking (swapping links) and buying links.

Based on our last week poll we have noticed that a small number of webmasters are using Joomla for blogging. I think that Joomla is offering a very well endowed environment and maybe the Joomla dev team should focus on attracting as many bloggers as possible. Right now, as you read these lines, there are more than 30 million bloggers all over the world ...and counting. Even if a great deal of them is using free bolggs, there are plenty of them that own or wish to buy their own blogging domain. If those would be attracted to Joomla, the number of Joomla users would exponentially increase.

We have expected that given the fact that Joomla is offering a very good way of managing the content, simplicity and an easy utilization. |
