A content management system is, at its heart, very simple. It is a system that allows the content of a site to be changed without the need for technical expertise. Content Management Systems (CMS) are a great way of managing information on a website. These CMS systems allow people with minimal technical knowledge to upload, share or publish a range of content to a website e.g. text, graphics, pictures and documents. 

When talking about Content Management Systems what do we mean by content? 

When we use the word ‘content’ we mean text, video, audio, graphics, Word documents, blogs etc. Anything in electronic format can be managed by a CMS. Every CMS system has its advantages and disadvantages, how they work differently with operating systems like windows or Linux and how usable they are by technical, designers and end-users.

These Content Management Systems were originally created to resolve the issue of highly technical staff being needed to add simple content to a website. It allows these members of staff to concentrate on the look and functions of a website and its design rather than adding content to a page.

All websites that are designed and developed by Capital include a content management system in the design, allowing you to change as much or as little as you like, from changing the wording on a page to creating entire new pages and sections for your website.
