Joomla Tutorials, info, Discussions and much more...

I am excited to announce that iJoomla and JomSocial will soon become a part of the JoomlArt company. This merger will, effectively, make JoomlArt the largest Joomla company in the world.

The web has changed very fast in the last decade and, as Joomla loses market shares to WordPress and SaaS services, the only way forward is through powerful acquisitions like these. Combining the expertise of these three companies will make JoomlArt more competitive than ever.

With over 500K registered users JomSocial and iJoomla are home to a big Joomla user community and it would be a pleasure to take care of their concerns and help them get their projects completed on time.

I have known Merav from the time she started iJoomla.com and we have been friends. All current team members of iJoomla and JomSocial are part of the merger and we even hosted JomSocial core team at our office for 8 days to understand and finalize future roadmap.
