Content Management Systems

Content Management Systems

Managing content for your website or anything else for that matter can be a laborious task without the correct tools. A content management system or CMS for short provides ways to create, edit, manage and publish your content in a consistent and organised fashion. CMS are used to store, control and version everything from manuals to web based content and can provide a centralised place to control everything you need to manage.

Why do you need a CMS?

With the “paper-less office” now close to being a reality the amount of digital content a company owns can soon become uncontrollable without a framework in which to manage it. Whether it’s a CMS just to control a company website or something that runs an entire intranet and document repository the list of benefits to implementing a CMS is vast.

When talking about managing websites, factors other than ease of management also play a large part in the adoption of a CMS. Brand guidelines, accessibility and consistency are all easier to handle with a properly implemented CMS.

Imagine for example new legislation is passed forcing all websites to adhere to accessibility guidelines on providing mechanisms for text resizing. If your content is managed using a CMS this could be implemented in one or a few templates which role out across the entire site. If the site was a static website this could mean editing every page.
