How to Choose the Right Content Management System (CMS) for Your Business

To update the text and images on your site, you have two options:

  • Hire a programmer
  • Do it yourself with a Content Management System (CMS)!

Obviously, it’s more cost effective to update your site with a CMS. We wrote this article to help you understand important features of a great CMS.

What is a CMS?

Our customers tell us all the time that one of the most important things for their website is an easy-to-use CMS. A CMS allows you to:

  • Add New content
  • Edit existing content
  • Upload and edit images
  • Make changes to your site immediately

Why is Fresh Content Important?

It’s vital for you to be able to manage, add, and publish new content on your site. This keeps your site fresh and up-to-date. Fresh content is very important to your site:

  • Customers love new content; it keeps them coming back again and again.
  • The search engines (Google and Bing) love new content; and it will help improve your rankings.

Choose a CMS

Before you decide on a CMS for your business, ask yourself some questions:

  • Is it easy-to-use?

Not everyone is tech-savvy. Make sure the CMS you pick is simple, straight forward, and easy to use. Remember, one of the main reasons you’re choosing a CMS is so that you don’t have to hire a programmer to do the work for you. If you don’t understand your CMS, it isn’t going to do you any good.

  • Does it include the features you want?

Determine which features and functionality are important to your business, and double check that your CMS offers these things.

  • Have you looked around? Research is extremely important in choosing a great CMS. Make sure you’ve looked around and know what is available. Don’t make a decision until you’re sure.
