Self-Managed Sites &
Content Management Systems

We build sites that give the ability for the client to make changes themselves without any software. Changes are made through a password-protected area with a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor, much like changing a Word document.

We can build a site new with the CMS or we can adapt your current site so that it works with the system. We also use other popular site management systems:

• WordPress
• Blogger
• Joomla

A Content Management System (CMS) is designed to give you control over your web site while maintaining the consistency of the established site design. Additionally, you get the power of a high-performance database for dynamically distributing your content throughout your site. The benefits of the CMS:

• Make site changes instantly without waiting for your "web guy" to get around to it.
• Change copy in one place, and have it changed automatically in all relevant places on your site.
• Avoid costly maintenance charges for minor site changes.
• Add new pages to your site instantly.
• Have site changes happen automatically:
  • past events disappear, upcoming events appear
  • have content change randomly
  • have copy appear/disappear automatically on pre-set dates
• Clients or group members can access private areas of the site to view or change their own information.
