Open Question: Major Companies Using Joomla

I just read about a site called Quizilla that uses the Joomla framework, but does not use the Joomla CMS. Here is a post about it at Spacemonkey Labs: http://www.spacemonkeylabs.com...nches.html

Quizilla is owned by MTV Networks (Viacom). According to the post at SML, "Quizilla frequently serves 40 million page views weekly."

Oops....I guess I should have read the entire list before posting.

We built out a Joomla site for KickApps, a white label Social Networking site: www.kickapps.com (they're a fairly major company compared to us at least )

The country Latvia's official site
Avis in Nicaragua
AIDS Healthcare Foundation
Mitsubishi in Venezuela & Poland
Samuel L Jackson's officiial site
Thrasher Magazine
Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) Crew Guide

Many site rank well even there is some problem with the site, yeah which site is perfect ya,?

Example:
http://www.li.lv/ - the menu in FF the z-index index is not well coded.the menu "Print Material "totally gt blocked

Kyle , i totally cant recognize your site is on J!. u even redirect the module position link. lol
Great Site! as is says. it kick Ass!

@ILJ thx they certainly pushed Joomla's limits
@Steve thx I had forgotten about that article, you're always on top of everything

Some from Bulgaria
http://www.vidima.bg/ - Large subsidiary of American Standard
http://www.mfa.bg/ - Ministry of Foreign Affairs ? Bulgaria
http://www.transhold.bg ? Large Bulgarian Holding group
http://www.eva.bg ? Magazine, part of the Greek Antena Group

Any chance of reviewing any one of these sites to assess what they are doing well in regards to SEO

Nice list, useful for reference

Hi Steve,

You can look at http://www.aidez-pasteur.com/. THis is the fundraising site for Institut Pasteur, leading pharmaceutical group

The site I was most surprised to find on that list is Danone. It's great they are using Joomla!
To be honest though, I find it somewhat disappointing that not more large websites are using Joomla... Although after using Drupal it's understandable. I think we would be able to find more large companies that use Drupal as opposed to Joomla.

that's a great post.
Wouldn't it be related to a certain explosive thread of the joomla forum where someone was actually questioning the fact that joomla is not good enough for large company and was advertising drupal?

Either way, we should invite him to read this post.

You have some serious company in this list. Like you said about Danone: (A lot more than just yogurts); you are perfectly right. Danone is "ginormous"

thanks again for this great site

cheers

My firm has 3 really high traffic Joomla sites:

www.joespub.com > major performing arts venue in NYC
www.simplesteps.org > eco-mag for Natural Resources Defense Council

Hi Amanda,
Just out of curiosity, what is it you call high traffic ? can you give us a rough idea of nb of unique visitors per day on each site for instance ?

I really did not consider it as famous people, I guess I should have rephrased it as Vandergriff Motorsports as its the Official site for Vandergriff Motorsports and not just Bob Vandergriff.
