What is Web Content Management?

 

Content management systems enhance an organization's ability to create, organize, control and manage Web content. These systems make it easier for non-technical staff to add content to Web sites. Organizations benefit by enabling the creators of Web content (typically business professionals) to also become the publishers and managers of this Web content. The result is streamlined operations as:

  • Business users maintain the Web site without the aid of Web/IT professionals
  • IT bottlenecks are eliminated as workflow/process are applied to managing Web sites
  • Ability to control access to content: only authorized users can view, update and add content
  • Control consistent design and navigation schemes
  • Eliminate inaccurate / outdated / redundant / unauthorized content
  • Search engine friendly content
  • Prevent contributors from overwriting content
  • Manage media assets and files
  • Syndication to other web sites

What about my site navigation?

With our CMS tool, you won't have to redesign your website if you want to add a new item on your menu.  Our CMS tool is highly customizable, allowing users to easily define how the data will be displayed on the Web page.

Should I be concerned about site security?

Site administrators can create users with individual passwords that are encrypted in the database to prevent theft. The login page for accessing our CMS tool can use SSL to transfer the username and password. 

Content security is handled by a flexible user/user group permission association model. Unlimited users and user groups can be specified. Each user or group can by given, or denied, a wide range of permissions to folders and even content.

Is CMS search engine friendly? 

Yes, CMS is search engine friendly.  Because both internal and external search engines rely on metadata (i.e., data that describes data) to help site visitors locate relevant information, it is critical for business users to be able to add and modify metadata.  Our CMS tool allows for full metadata support.


Is the process of controlling the Web site's style straightforward for Web administrator or developer?

Yes. Sites managed by our CMS tool can easily take advantage of cascading style sheets (CSS).  Style classes can be applied to content within the editor. Style sheets store presentation information about the content in a separate file. When content is copied and pasted from Microsoft Word into the editor, the content will contain information such as embedded style attributes, fonts, and other coding is cleaned up by the content editor.
