TYPO3

TYPO3 - Web Content Management System

TYPO3: the all-round content management system for every web design

TYPO3 is a browser-based, free (no cost) web content management system (WCMS) that was first developed in 1998 by Kasper Skårhøj. TYPO3 is suitable for both small and large websites and has been continuously developed since 1998. The system runs under the GNU Public License and is therefore freely available online.

Written in the scripting language PHP, this WCMS can be adapted to almost any conceivable web design and can be expanded in terms of function and scope with extensions (= plugins). Currently, over 9,000 extensions are available for free at www.typo3.org.

TYPO3 is particularly notable for its multi-domain capability, multilingualism, and strict separation of front-end and back-end users. In addition, the administrator can fine-tune the permissions of both user groups in great detail, which, unlike WordPress or Joomla!, for example, are managed completely separately from each other.

The training period for a web designer is at least several weeks. To do this, the developer must learn Typo3's own scripting language, “TypoScript.” However, a few hours of training are sufficient for an editor who will subsequently maintain the site and fill it with content. No knowledge of HTML or scripting languages is required for this.

Web design & content separated

The content maintained in the web content management system is independent of the page design. This means that when a website is relaunched, the content can be retained and integrated into the new page design. Of course, the content is usually revised during a relaunch. However, this is more likely to be due to an adaptation to the circumstances of the website operator.

functional enhancements

TYPO3 is essentially a WCMS that can be used to create websites with all the standard and important functions. If the site operator grows or requirements change, the system can grow seamlessly with one of the existing extensions from the TYPO3 repository or with self-programmed extensions.
All extension templates can be customized for the website without an update of the extension or the TYPO3 system overwriting the customizations.

Search engine optimization (SEO)

Thanks to its modular structure, TYPO3 is not only ideal for individual web design, but can also be easily optimized for search engines. Since I regularly work with various Hamburg-based SEOs, all TYPO3 pages I create are prepared for search engine optimization. Even before that, “speaking URLs” (= simulation of static HTML pages) were a matter of course for me. However, I have now acquired much more in-depth knowledge of search engine optimization, which I incorporate into my work and from which my customers benefit.
