The Benefits of Having a CMS

CMS stands for Content Management System and is a way of editing your website without the assistance of a web developer.

The key benefit of a CMS is the separation of design, content and structure which allows advantages throughout the lifecycle of your website. Each section can be amended independently, which allows you to change content without jeopardising the front-end design. This separation creates the flexibility of a CMS, allowing the editor to safely create content, add images, multimedia files and much more….

• Consistency of design is preserved.
  Because content is stored separate from design, the content from all authors is presented with the same, consistent design.
• Designed with non-technical content authors in mind.
  If you can write an email, you can add content to your site! Absolutely no specialist knowledge required.
• Decentralized maintenance.
  You can edit anytime, from anywhere with an internet connection
• Configurable access restrictions.
  Users can be given certain permissions that prevent them from editing content which they are not authorized to change.
• Navigation is automatically generated and adjusted.
  Menus are generated automatically based on the database content meaning links would not point to non-existing pages.
• Content is stored in a database.
  Central storage means that content can be reused in many places on the website
• Cooperation.
  Encourages efficient and effective updates.
