Content Management Systems

Putting you in control of your website’s content.

There’s nothing more frustrating for a business than needing to update your website but not being able to do it yourself, or having to pay your web designer every time you want to make an update. While this is a system that works for some companies (and one that we can accommodate), for most businesses, you want to be in control of your website.

A content management system (CMS) is a website that you have control over – so if you want to change the pictures in your galleries, the content on a page, or add a news article, you can do it yourself with no middleman.

Benefits of a CMS

Puts you in control of your web content
Update content instantly
No need to wait for your web designer to have time to make updates
Secure access, meaning you decide who can update the content
Full training and support available to help you and your staff learn the CMS
No need to learn complicated computer programming or systems

Different CMS systems

There are 3 main content management systems, each with different benefits and drawbacks, depending on your requirements. If you’re not sure which is right for you, please don’t hesitate to get in touch and we’ll be happy to advise.

A simple CMS system is ideal for a website where there are only certain pages you’d want to edit. For example, if you want most of your website content to remain the same but wish to make regular updates to the news section, a simple CMS could be right for you.

Key points:

A dedicated log-in page for you
Perfect if you only want to update one section of your website
Very simple user interface makes it easy to add or remove content, and update it instantly
No danger of you accidentally editing other parts of the website by mistake

If you want greater control over more elements of your website, a ready-made CMS could be what you’re looking for. There are some excellent ready-made CMS systems available which allow this level of control but do all of the technical work for you. Examples of good ready-made CMS systems include WordPress, Drupal and Joomla. We can recommend the best one for your needs, and are happy to work with particular systems if you already have a preference.

Key points:

Edit 100% of your website
Very cost-effective
Many come with additional plug-ins or modules to easily give extra functionality such as image galleries, movie players and more
User-friendly interface – no technical knowledge is needed for most tasks
Get different permission levels, meaning you can restrict staff members’ editing permissions to certain pages and areas of the site
Full training and support for you and your staff to learn the CMS

We can also build specific designs to fit the ready-made CMS, or use concepts or designs already built which are first-class in design and look.

Sometimes a client will need something that a CMS system on the market just can’t offer. For example, you may need to manage customers or products in a particular way, or you may require certain back-end functions for your staff. If you fall into this category, we can ascertain your requirements and build a specific custom CMS that’s tailor-made to meet your exact needs.

Every bespoke system will vary from each other and is on a case by case basis, but we have lots of experience across the spectrum as to what is the best thing to use.
