JoomlaDay Chicago is this Saturday!

JoomlaDay Chicago is this Saturday!

At Virgo Web Design, we look forward to a few important things every summer in Chicago; warm weather, wearing shorts, the beach, festivals, and JoomlaDay Chicago, to name a few. Well, JoomlaDay Chicago is upon us this Saturday, the 9th. This event attracts Joomla enthusiasts worldwide, and has a jam-packed schedule of speakers talking about Joomla news, tutorials, and advice on best practices. This year, it begins right after the Joomla Developer Conference (also hosted in Chicago) finishes up.

The topics covered range from beginner to advanced, so whether you’re new to Joomla or an expert, this event will have something to offer for you. For a list of speakers and the full schedule, you can check out the JoomlaDay Chicago website. The event goes from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and usually some of the attendees will hang out afterwards and have some fun in Chicago!

One of the great things about this event is the opportunity to meet and learn from some of the authorities in the Joomla community. It’s also interesting to meet someone that you may have interacted with in the past on some forum, or even a developer that you’ve purchased a Joomla extension from. The internet is such a vast, informative realm, but it’s also very impersonal. Events like this one help connect Joomla’s community, and help strengthen the comradery of Joomla developers. If you’re a Joomla enthusiast, whether you’re in Chicago or not, I highly recommend attending this event! Even if you can’t make it to this one, keep a lookout for upcoming events, which can be found on Joomla’s website. Should you be planning on attending JoomlaDay Chicago, I recommend that you don’t go unnoticed – spark a conversation, make some new friends and/or alliances, and make the most of your experience.

So, will you be attending this year? We hope to see you there! Tweet to hashtag #jd14ch and get in on the conversations about the event.

  • Virgo Web Design recently completed my website MeetPeopleChicago.com. Jerry was easy to work with, was attentive to my questions and was on top of things from start to finish. In addition he was very knowledgable and up to date on the latest technologies. I am very pleased with the final product and I will surely use him again for future enhancements. Thank you Jerry for the great work you have done!

  • As a marketing communications person who knew my company needed an up-to-date website built in Joomla, I was very happy we found [Virgo Web Design]. I understood things from a content perspective, but when it came to back-end design and architecture, my hands were tied. [Virgo Web Design] was so knowledgeable and easy to work with, and was always available to answer questions, make tweaks, walk me through front-end editing tasks...you name it. [Virgo Web Design]'s accessibility and can-do attitude made such a difference to our entire team, and I hope I always thanked [them] enough for helping me through the client-side part of the web redesign process.

  • "[Virgo Web Design] did an amazing job on my non-profit's website, ghhaven.org. [They] put our site together quickly and with all of the elements we requested - plus, [they] had a lot of great recommendations for things that we hadn't even considered for the site. [They were] very helpful throughout the process of getting our site launched and I found [them] to be quick in responding to all of my questions/requests as well. [They] even helped us get our business emails set up!

    I would definitely recommend Virgo Web Design as a go-to for all of your web design/development needs. I will definitely be using [them] again in the near future!"

  • [Virgo Web Design] has developed and designed multiple websites for me over the years. [Their] team are exceptionally skilled technicians. Their communication is easy to understand, and they are very proficient - even when near-end deadlines are demanding. Hiring Jerry Virgo and his team is one of the best decisions I have made for my company.

  • I've used Yahoo sitebuilder for several years and my e-commerce website was due for an overhaul. I asked around & received several recommendations from friends & other small businesses.

    Many of the other referrals came from Web design firms & had significantly higher overheads/billing rates...We had a tight timeline & [they were] very diligent at following up to avoid production delays at time when I was extremely busy. [They] did a nice all around job improving my SEO optimization, creating a polished final product, and documenting the back end with an easy to use manual.

    After the site when live, [they] stood by & helped me troubleshoot unanticipated events & helped me create work arounds.
