CMS or in full known as Content Management System is the collaborative method of managing the workflow of your website. You can either manage these methods automatically controlled by a computer or you can manually operate it. The data in a CMS can be anything and everything like pictures, documents and a lot other type of contents that are in use on the website. When choosing a CMS, you have two choices. One is a professional webmaster, who will tailor-made a CMS for you. This will be a custom CMS totally based on your need, and the other is the ready-made which will reduce your cost and time.

Which CMS to use?

Well, this depends entirely on your needs and affordability. A custom made CMS will be very expensive and will take a lot of time to make, on the other hand, ready-made CMS are generally free, you can simply download them and start using them immediately. But if you are a big business and you want to stand out from the crowd by making something innovative for your website, you will have to hire a pro to make your unique CMS.

The most commonly used CMS are as follows:

•Joomla
•Drupal
•Wordpress
•Magento

We only think that the task of a content management is to manage Photos, Videos and Documents. The other contents that we generally overlook are:

•Data Management
•Template Management
•Management of Life-cycle
•Synchronization
•Personalization
•Syndication

A CMS is the simplest way of managing a website. You don’t need to hire a technical person or a pro to make your website, and in hours you will be able to come with a stunning site of your own. CMS like Joomla and Wordpress provide hundreds and thousands of extensions, plugins and templates. So if you are not an expert in designing or coding, you will have no problem whatsoever to design the website of your dream. To write something, you don’t need to write hundreds of lines of codes. The CMS uses WYSWYG (What you see is what you get) method. Which means when you are writing some newsletter or blog for your website, you will feel like you are writing in MS Word. Writing in MS Word is nothing technical. Is it?

Well if you think that you are a semi-pro, then don’t worry about the too much simplicity about your CMS, they will provide you with a lot of other options, like creating contact forms etc.

The ready-made CMS is powerful too, and you will receive a lot of support if a problem occurs. The forums are filled with few thousand experts who are more than happy guide you out of a bug or trouble you are facing. Now-a-days, most of the CMS have gone mobile, if you have an iPhone or an
Android driven device, you can update or make changes to your website on the go.

Making a website may be a pain-striking job. But CMSs is the real life-saver. As we mentioned earlier, in a matter of minutes, with the help of a CMS, you can manage your website by your own and that too with an ease.
