MENTORING AND EVANGELIZATION

Finally, anytime you help someone learn more about Joomla, or tell them how wonderful it is, you're mentoring or evangelizing for the project. Making other people aware of Joomla and its capabilities is an important way to grow Joomla's market share and installed base.

Some great ways to help Joomla in this way include the following:

  • Speak about your experiences with Joomla at a user group meeting. There may be several kinds of user groups in your area, including an Adobe group, a PHP group, a general web development or design group, a usability group, or some other web technology networking group.
  • Volunteer to build a Joomla website for a local nonprofit organization, or some other organization that serves your community.
  • Blog about your experiences with Joomla, or share your experiences on Facebook, Twitter, and other social networking sites.
