1. Faster content updates
With our content manager, the content owner can access the parts of the site that they own and publish them directly to the Web site without any internet skills using a simple internet browser.
2. Web Life-Cycle Management
Our content management systems provide the ability for content managers to approve and validate content before it goes live on the Web. They can also control the time a content element goes live, the day and time is it removed from the site, and the locations on the site that the content element appears.
- Accountability
Our content management software can be set up with user accounts, and access rights. This means, that some pages may only be editable by specific accounts. And changes that are made are submitted to a supervisor before online publishing.
- Update planning
You can prepare your Christmas promotion in May and when the date comes it will be published in your website without any further intervention.
- Automation
The content management system can update your home page main article by selecting randomly an article in your entire website or a specific section of it, so a visitor will see a new headline article each day, without any intervention required on your side.
3. Don’t Need HTML
Contributing to and administrating the editorial side is entirely done through a Web-based, user-friendly back-office for proposing texts, changing the site structure, etc.
Our content managers work in a templated environment. So, if you were to add a link to a new press release, you would enter in the link title, URL, and description into different fields in the content manager form. The content manager would then build the link for you.
- WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get):
A rich text editor allow you to format your text by the simple press of a button. It is as easy as writing an email and press send!
- Illustrate your text:
you can insert images in your text or change your section or articles logo by the simple press of a button.
4. Standardization
Our content managers work on a template type system. This means that there are certain areas of Web pages that cannot be changed by the content owner. For example, on this Web site, I am the content owner of this page, but I cannot change anything above the title or below the bottom of this article. All of that information is controlled by templates, and is managed by an authority (web designer or coder).
- Web templing
Web pages are created from templates only accessible by web designer. This allows your content owners to concentrate on writing. Then when they are ready to post items to the Web site, the content will display with the standardized branding of your site.
- Personalization
Once the content is put into the CM system, it makes it that much easier to create personalized pages for your Web site visitors. This is because the Web page design is separated from the content - so the content can be delivered exactly as your readers request it.
- Faster layout update
Updating one template layout will apply a change on all the web site pages using this template. For example changing your logo size on all the pages of your site will require only one template update.
- Customize
The site is not constrained by the content management system functionalities. As HTML templates are freely defined by the webmaster(s), there can be parts of the site managed with our CMS as well as others written ’by hand’ or even managed by other publication systems
- Data management
The primary function of a content management system is to manage the content on Web site. This is achieved by storing text, images or media in structured databases totally independent from the graphical structure of the web site. And by displaying to users the information in the most rational way.
5. Syndication
Syndication allows you to share your Web content with other corporations. Like personalization, it is made possible because the content is separated from the design of the Web site. For example, an online vitamin store might syndicate articles about vitamins, Symantec might have content related to online security, and Nordstrom might include fashion tips. On this web site the Consumer travel news are automatically coming from syndicated site.
6. Digital Rights Management
As the copyright holder of content, whether it is writing, audio or video, you have the opportunity to provide high-quality access to your content. Content management systems provide the background for managing the rights to your content.
7. Caching
A caching system on the public side avoids numerous MySQL requests on the server. It further allows keeping a functional site even when MySQL is down and avoid server overload because of heavy traffic. Though of course no dynamic functionality is then available (e.g. forums and back-office).
