Yes, it can be a bit daunting at first. After all, we're talking about creating a powerful, beautiful, dynamic website - perhaps a business website that you're hoping will be very profitable. So be patient, and understand that although Joomla makes it all easy, "easy" is "relative". It doesn't mean you won't have to think, read and learn.

Understand too that the initial setup and configuration of your new website will take a lot more work and know-how than updating and maintaining your site on a day-to-day basis.

For this reason, you may consider hiring someone to get things started. Whether you do it yourself, or hire a pro there are things you should know that just aren't in the Joomla manual because they pertain to all websites, especially business websites. So before you begin, read the articles and watch the videos on CompuSolver.com's section on "Website Building Tutorials".

When you return, you'll find everything you need to setup your new Joomla website, from deciding on a domain name all the way through installation and setup. (We have that much mostly done) Then we'll move on to things like installing a new template; setting up your site with your content; installing modules and components and more. (within a week, hopefully) We'll keep it simple, avoid technical jargon and use lots of pictures.
