Joomla! custom extension development
Building a Joomla! extension is sometimes better than choosing an existing Joomla! extension. But then, not all programmers are familiar with concepts like singletons, MVC and overrides. Why not hire the experts of Yireo to get the job done quickly, in full compliance with the Joomla! Framework coding standards?

Quick steps to get it working
- Download and install the Google Optimizer plugin in Joomla!
- Browse to the Plugin Manager and activate the plugin
- Insert GA-tags in your content, following the documentation
Why Google Optimizer
Google Optimizer allows you to experiment with keywords, phrases and full articles to find out which text is the most useful. To do this, multiple pages (tracking pages) need to be setup with identical text that all point to one final page - the conversion page. Google counts the number of visitors arriving on the conversion page from each tracking page.
Why this plugin?
This plugin allows you to easily insert simple tags that will be replaced dynamically with JavaScript-code. This saves you time and also bypasses certain JavaScript-filters (for instance the ones present in the TinyMCE editor).
Help on the usage of Google Optimizer itself can be found here.

Google Optimizer plugin is available under the GNU General Public License. It may be used freely and the PHP source code may be altered.

FancyBox
Fancybox is a popular Lightbox-effect based on jQuery. This plugin allows you to easily implement the Fancybox-effect on the HTML-content that you want.
