What’s the Best CMS?

What’s the best CMS (content management system) for growing your business?

In the early days of the web, businesses could get away with having an online brochure. No more.

Now, because of search engine considerations, increased competition, and customer expectations, businesses can’t just succeed with a static website.

Thanks to CMS, your web site is no longer an online brochure, it’s a publishing platform.

Business owners want the flexibility to make updates to their own web sites, but they don’t want to learn a complicated piece of software to make that happen. The sweet spot of any CMS is to balance power with ease-of-use.

Your CMS checklist should include:

  • the ability to add, edit and delete pages
  • the ability to upload photos and resize them on the page
  • the ability to embed videos, whether they’re hosted at your site, on YouTube or another video sharing site
  • the ability to preview pages before they go live, and schedule pages to go live when you want
  • a robust development community that creates plugins to enhance your web site
  • a simple interface that makes updating your web site a snap.

Why should you talk to flyte about designing your site on a content management system?

Skilled CMS web designers. Almost every web site we build these days is on a CMS, primarily WordPress and Joomla, two of the most popular platforms out there. Because we focus our design and development on just these two platforms, we can create custom-designed sites that don’t look like generic, template-driven web sites.

WordPress conversions. We can take most any web site and convert it over to the WordPress platform “as is.” If you’re happy with your current design and site architecture, but want the ability to manage the content on your site yourself, we can recreate your site on one of the world’s most popular CMS platforms.

One-on-one training. These platforms are easy to pick up and use, but our developers will provide training designed to get you up and running in no time. Whether in person or virtual, our training sessions will have you taking control of your online destiny no matter what your skill level is now.

Ongoing support and maintenance. Like any piece of software, content management systems need updates and patches. Our developers stay on top of upgrades and security alerts to keep your web site up and running and building your business.
