Joomla Translation (JTrans Pro) Component
    Best Translation Component - PERIOD!, October 20, 2007 |
This is one phenomenal component. Installation was a snap - just install like any other component, add a line to .htaccess, enter your license, configure, place a module and it just works. The translations are fast; I noticed no difference in load times on translated versus original pages. All pages maintain their original styling - it's absolutely seamless! It even translates my FireBoard forum! I haven't had a single issue with this component thus far, and I 'm sure of I do JoomlaSpan's support will be all over it. This is the third component of theirs that I use on my site (1 free and 2 commercial components) and their support has always been great. This is, by far, the best translation component available for Joomla!
Another cool thing - with the page translated into 11 languages, and each language having a unique SEF URL, I've just increased the number of pages available to search engines by 11 fold - that means I've gone from around 1,200 pages to over 13,000! I look forward to seeing the traffic increase!

    The BEST Weblinks and Directory Component, July 31, 2007 |

I cannot say enough good things about this product and its great developer.
This is a great web links component, even without the added benefit of two-way link exchanges. It gives you much more flexibility than the standard Joomla! web links component, allowing pagination and subcategories, which is great as far as search engine optimization (SEO) goes (too many external links on one page is does not help the page rank of the sites you're linking to).
On top of the ability to have a better organized links/directory page, JV-LinkExchanger adds the ability for visitors to perform a two-way (reciprocal) link exchange with you via an easy to use form, and for other folks to recommend site for inclusion without an exchange - the best of both worlds! It also has a powerful back-end to manage you links, displaying page ranks, traffic and reciprocal link status for the sites you link to.
The developer is very active in the component's forum, as are the users. The developer is also very receptive to feature requests, even when I made five of them in one day!
I highly recommend this to everyone as a replacement for the default Joomla! web links component, even if you only want to use a few of its features, it's worth it!
