How to install Joomla to GoDaddy

Hosting Joomla on GoDaddy (www.godaddy.com) can be challenging, but many people choose the ISP because of the low price of their hosting, their size, and the nearly perfect up-time record on their servers. Here are a few tips that will help you get Joomla running on GoDaddy with minimum fuss.

To configure Joomla once installed:

  1. Turn on Search Engine Friendly (SEF) in the Global Configuration (GC) -- To make sure you have the best search engine page ranking, turn on both the SEF and the mod_rewrite options on the GC screen.
  2. Turn on caching in the GC -- The slowest aspect of GoDaddy Joomla hosting is the shared access to MySQL. By turning on caching, a page will be stored as a standard HTML when accessed (the home page, for example). If the next time the page is referenced the cached version hasn't expired, it will simply send the stored file instead of reconstructing the page from the MySQL database.

These tips should help you configure and run Joomla on GoDaddy for best performance and Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
