Content management systems
A Content Management System (CMS), brings a new level of flexibility to websites by allowing clients to easily edit their web site in-house, through a browser. They can also easily integrate with a wide number of dynamic functions such as Blogs, Forums and E-commerce systems.
A Content Managed website has numerous benefits:
- Update your website yourself
- Easy to use
- No technical knowledge required
- Access and edit anywhere through the internet
- Add news
- Easily upgradeable to add extra functionality
- New sections and pages can easily be added
- No software is required to be installed to edit the site
- Reduce maintenance costs
- Keep your website up to date, which encourages repeat visitors and better search engine ranking
- Minimal training required
The site is administered through a password protected page on the site, and allows all aspects of the site to be edited in-house. If your company has a number of staff, you can set the admin area to have different levels of access; for instance only allowing certain areas of the site to be edited by each department.
Users of your site can create an account and log in (if required), to access registration only content. Comprehensive statistics show what pages users are visiting, and also how many users are online at any one time.
If you can use a word processor, you can use a Content Management System. There are tools available to change the fonts used on your web site, colour, and size of the text, add images, news articles and much more.
Whilst we are very happy to update your website, it is handy to be able to change text yourself if inspiration calls, or when you need to get a marketing message changed instantly.
