What is a CMS?
Content Management describes the process of easily creating, managing and publishing online content with neither programming nor technical skills. Easy and effective content management is achieved through the deployment of a Content Management System (CMS) that is either custom built or purchased as an off-the-shelf solution. However, without a well defined content plan, evaluating and choosing a CMS may prove disastrous. Contact us online for further advice.
Components of a CMS
A CMS usually has the following components:
. Document templates
. A scripting language and/or a markup language
. Integration with a database
The inclusion of content is controlled by the use of special tags in pages. These tags are often unique to a CMS.
Criteria behind evaluating a CMS
Simplification of:
. Site management
. Site development
. Publication information to the website?
Scalability and Flexibility
. Ability to accept documents converted to HTML
. Ease of uploading and using images in documents
. Programming and scripting languages supported
. Support for a range of databases
These requirements and others must be identified prior to evaluating any CMS. Once these are documented, specific evaluation criteria and a content management plan can be developed for evaluating different vendors and systems.
