Content Management Systems
What is a content management system?
A content management system is online software that keeps track of every piece of content on your web site. Content can be simple text, photos, music, video, documents, or just about anything you can think of. A major advantage of using a content management system (CMS) is that it requires almost no technical skill or knowledge to manage. Since the CMS manages all your content, you don't have to.
What can a content management system do?
Content management systems are used all over the world to power web sites of all shapes and sizes. For example:
- Corporate web sites or portal web sites
- Corporate intranets and extranets
- Online magazines, newspapers, and publications
- E-commerce websites and online booking and reservations websites
- Government applications
- Small business web sites
- Non-profit web sites
- Charity web sites
- Community-based portals
- School web sites
- Personal or family homepages
What are the benefits of a CMS system?
A content management system (or CMS system) allows you to update your website in real time. This means that you are in control of content and images on your website pages and do not have to rely on a web designer or web developer once the initial setup has been completed. Content management systems are becoming more popular due to the increased control owners can have over their websites and the relatively lower long term cost involved.
A typical content management system project is no different to any other web design project. A web design is initially agreed and coded as normal. The only difference is that the finished web design is then converted into a template that can be used with the content management system. The CMS system is then installed along with the coded template to allow users to add content.
