Content Management
A Brief
Overview
If your website
is your
store-front (or
front-end), then
your content
management
system is your
back office
(back-end).
In the past, if
you wanted to
update the
content on your
company website,
you either had
to learn how to
do web
programming or
hire a web
developer again
to update your
content.
Today however,
businesses have
the opportunity
to update the
content of their
website from any
internet-connected
computer in the
world at any
time. They do
this with their
own Content
Management
System.
How does it
work?
A content
management
system is
essentially a
secondary
website.
You and your
staff access the
system via the
web and perform
various tasks to
add, remove,
update and
manage the
content visitors
see on your
website.
Another powerful
aspect of
content
management is
the ability to
monitor activity
on your website
(such as
discovering how
many people are
viewing your
site) and
feedback from
visitors (such
as online
enquiries).
A Content
Management
System works by
interacting with
a database on
your web server.
When you update
the content
through your
back-end, your
website as your
visitors see it
pulls the
information from
your database
and the
information is
displayed.
What Can It
Do?
Content
management
systems are
commonly used
for
- Updating the content of standard pages
- Adding, updating and removing Products and Services
- Creating and managing image and Photo Galleries
-
Managing
your
Blog /
news
section
Managing an Events Calendar / workshops diary - Determining how many people are visiting your site and how they find you.
-
Uploading
files
for your
visitors
to
download
Managing a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) area -
Reviewing
customer
feedback
and
enquiries
Managing a catalogue of items (eg. a product catalogue or business directory) - Managing user access for private areas of your website
These are
just a few of
the tasks a
content
management
system can be
used for.
Depending on
your needs and
objectives, a
custom solution
is provided to
you.
Is it Easy to
Use?
A CMS is easy to
use. If you've
ever used a word
processor or
submitted
information
online using a
contact form,
for example, you
will have no
problem using a
content
management
system.
Our objective is
to build you a
system that is
as
point-and-click
as possible,
while being able
to customize and
manage all the
content of your
website as you
like privately.
You do not need
to be highly
familiar with
the internet or
computers.
Most users find
our systems very
straight-forward,
nevertheless we
provide you with
a personal
instruction
manual to guide
you and your
staff through
the use of your
system to make
to most of your
website. We can
also provide you
with a training
session and
support via
email and
telephone.
Web Development
Website
development is
quite different
from website
design. While an
artistic
approach is used
in web design, a
technical
strategy is used
in web
development.

Static
Websites
A static website
is typically
those with a low
volume of
content that
does not change
often. When
changes are
needed you can
get in touch to
discuss what is
needed.
Static websites
are great for
small start-ups
looking to
establish a
website with
basic
information that
does not need to
change often.
Dynamic Sites
Most of the
websites we
develop today
are dynamic. A
dynamic site is
one where the
content is
updateable by
you privately
via the web.
Dynamic websites
are great for
online shops or
catalogues,
directories and
corporate sties
that need to be
updated on a
regular basis.

update your
