A Joomla speed plugin for Core Web Vitals, on any Joomla 4.4, 5 or 6 site. It runs in plain PHP on your own hosting, with no outside service.

Version 1.1.0, released 1 October 2026. Read the documentation.
EasySMTP
EUR 49a year
A Joomla SMTP extension that sends your site's email through the provider you choose and keeps a searchable log of every message. When a customer says the order confirmation never came, you find it in the log and resend it with one click.

HikaShop Meta Pixel & Conversions API

Meta (Facebook) Pixel and the Conversions API for HikaShop on Joomla: each sale is sent from the browser and from your server, and Meta matches the two and counts the sale once.
- PageView, ViewContent, AddToCart, InitiateCheckout and Purchase
- Multi-currency, with a tax mode setting
- Consent support and hashed customer identifiers
- Test events and debug tools to check it before you go live
SEO + AI search
Joomla SEO for Google and AI search
Our Joomla SEO service is senior SEO and Joomla development work on your own site every month, aimed at Google and at AI answers (generative engine optimisation, or GEO). We make the changes in Joomla ourselves and log each one: menu routing, robots.txt, canonicals, speed, structured data and the text on the page.
A typical find: one article reachable at several addresses, because Joomla builds each link from whichever menu item it finds. Google then picks the version it prefers, and it isn't always yours.
- Up to about 20 hours a month of senior SEO and developer time
- AI search comes out of the same hours and the same price
- A 3-month minimum, then month-to-month
$1,499 / month
No guaranteed rankings. Nobody can honestly promise them.
Android + iOS App development
Joomla mobile apps for Android and iOS
We write one app in Flutter or React Native and compile it into native apps for Android and iPhone. It reads your products, listings and forms straight from Joomla, so you keep editing them in one place.
An app earns its place when the same people come back: a customer who reorders, a student on lesson four, a business owner checking the reviews on their listing. They stay signed in with their website account, and a notification brings them back when the order ships. If most of your visitors find you once on Google and never return, an app won't change that.
Works with
Another extension can be connected too: name it when you ask for a quote.
- We submit it to the App Store and Google Play, under your own Apple and Google accounts
- Store submission in week 4 for a typical app, then Apple's and Google's review
The price depends mostly on how many screens the app needs and whether it takes payments. Apple's and Google's account fees are separate and paid to them.

Other Joomla development work, quoted before we start
Besides making extensions, our Joomla developers work directly on client sites, and you get a price before any work starts.
Hacked Joomla site cleanup
Send us the domain and a Joomla security specialist comes back with a free audit and a fixed price for the cleanup. You pay only if you go ahead, and only if the site is fixed. Most sites are cleaned and hardened the same day.
- Reply within 30 minutes
- Free audit first
- No credit card
- Pay only if it is fixed
Custom Joomla extensions
Components, plugins and modules for Joomla 5, written with PSR-4 and MVC. You get the source code and a short video walkthrough of how it works. The price comes after a 20-minute call.

Plan your extensionUpgrades and migrations
Joomla 3 or 4 to Joomla 5 or 6, or WordPress or Drupal to Joomla, with the template and extension code adapted. We plan the URL map and 301 redirects first. The addresses Google already knows have to keep working.
/index.php/news/12-spring-offer 301 → /news/spring-offer
Ask for an upgrade quoteMaintenance and support
Security patching and monitoring, regular updates and performance tuning. And when an update leaves the site on a blank page or an error screen, we trace it to the extension or override that caused it and fix it. It suits sites that earn money but have nobody watching for security releases.
Get a quoteWhy JoomlaMax
Developers who build their own Joomla extensions
JoomlaMax writes and sells its own Joomla extensions, so reading other people's extension code is a normal day for us. When a page prints two canonical tags, we find the extension that adds the second one and turn that option off.
EasySpeed runs on this site
The 63 → 99 above is joomlamax.com with EasySpeed switched off and then on.
On Joomla since 2016
That covers Joomla 3, the rebuild that became Joomla 4, and now 5 and 6. What we write today follows the namespaced structure of Joomla's own core extensions, which makes the next upgrade easier.
We won't move you off Joomla
A slow or hacked Joomla site can usually be put right where it is. Moving to another CMS means a rebuild and a full redirect map, and we'd rather spend your budget on the site you have.
What our speed number doesn't tell you
It's a Lighthouse lab test of our own page, not real visitors and not a client's site. Your result will depend on your host and on what your pages carry, which is why EasySpeed starts in a Diagnostics mode that only measures.
FAQ
Questions people ask about JoomlaMax
Who is JoomlaMax?
JoomlaMax was started in 2016 by a group of Joomla developers (more on the about page). We sell our own extensions, among them EasySMTP and EasySpeed, which runs on the site you're reading. We also work on client sites: SEO and AI search, hacked site cleanup, upgrades, maintenance, custom extensions and mobile apps.
Which Joomla versions do your extensions support?
EasySpeed runs on Joomla 4.4, 5 and 6. EasySMTP works on Joomla 4, 5 and 6. The Meta Pixel plugin is for HikaShop on Joomla, and its page lists what it needs. If your site is on Joomla 3, or on Joomla 4 before 4.4, we can upgrade it to Joomla 5 or 6.
Do your extensions work with my template or page builder?
Yes. EasySpeed has built-in adaptations for SP Page Builder, Helix Ultimate and YOOtheme Pro, and it works with other templates too. Every feature has its own switch, so if one clashes with something on your site, you turn that one off and keep the rest. EasySMTP works at Joomla's mail level, where the template doesn't come into it.
How do updates work?
Through Joomla's own updater. Enter the Download ID from your JoomlaMax dashboard, and new versions of EasySpeed and EasySMTP show up in System > Update > Extensions, ready to install with one click. Updates are included for the licence year.
Can you build a custom Joomla extension?
Yes. We build components, plugins and modules for Joomla 5 with PSR-4 and MVC, and hand over the spec, source code, database migrations, documentation and a short video walkthrough, plus an update server and licensing if you need them. It's priced by quote after a 20-minute call.
My Joomla site was hacked. What now?
Leave it as it is for a moment. Don't restore a backup or update Joomla yet: both usually wipe out the evidence of how the attacker got in, and the same hole stays open. Then send us the domain through the hacked site page. A Joomla security specialist replies within 30 minutes with a free audit and a fixed price, and you pay only if the site is fixed.
Do you do SEO for AI search?
Yes, inside our Joomla SEO service and for the same $1,499 a month. Generative engine optimisation (GEO) is mostly sound SEO, plus checks that are easy to miss on a Joomla site: whether robots.txt or a Cloudflare setting turns away OAI-SearchBot or Claude-SearchBot, and whether the text in your tabs and sliders can be read without JavaScript. Nobody can promise an AI citation, and we don't.
Where do I get help with an extension?
For EasySpeed, start with the EasySpeed documentation. If that doesn't answer it, write to us through the contact page with your site address, your Joomla version and what you're seeing. Standard support comes with the EasySMTP licence.
Tell us what your Joomla site needs
Describe it in a few lines: a Joomla 3 site that has to move, an extension nobody sells yet, a slow site EasySpeed alone hasn't fixed. We'll come back with a quote. If the site has been hacked, skip this and use the hacked site page.
