Russia Has 595 Joomla Sites — The Largest Joomla Concentration on Earth.

The Data

The Joomla Geography

Joomla isn't dead. It's geographically concentrated. Russia, Germany, and Greece together account for nearly 1,000 Joomla installations in our Common Crawl dataset. In most other markets, Joomla is statistically invisible. The framework didn't die — it retreated to specific markets and stayed.

The Isolated Ecosystem Risk

When a framework's user base concentrates in a few countries, its global community shrinks, its plugin ecosystem stagnates, and its security response slows. Joomla's concentration in Russia also raises questions about vulnerability response when geopolitical isolation limits collaboration with global security researchers.
