Creating Smart, Effective & Useful Websites

Content Management System

Our Content Management System (CMS), allows website administrators to edit just about any part of their website.

Edit content with ease

Our CMS - add and update content with easeThe CMS provides all the day-to-day editing control you need to maximize the power of your website for visitors and search engines. With WYSIWYG and drag & drop functions, you have total control over the way your content looks without needing to know any programming. If you can use a word processor, you can use our CMS. Images and files can be added through a drag & drop interface, and pages and templates are fully customisable. Themes and widgets offer unlimited customization.

Get your workflow in order

As a content author, you can set up approval processes for new content, automatically publish or unpublish items on a particular date, and have differing levels of access permissions for different parts of your site. The CMS lets you plan your content in advance, offering draft and live versions of your site, as well as a rollback option to bring back an old version of a page, as it used to be. Content is also shareable across multiple sites, managed through a single installation of the CMS.

Play well with others

The CMS works across today's popular browsers. In addition, excellent support of web services enables the CMS to integrate with other systems, and it is the only Microsoft Certified content management system built with open source tools. The system is also multilingual: we can switch the CMS into one of 65 languages and create content in other languages. You can even have different versions of your website in different languages.

Get some support

Before the website is launched, we provide thorough training for all content authors. This includes how to use all functionality, as well as some rules of thumb on how to make the most of your new website. We also provide an online user manual. Exhaustive, 24/7 support is available via our Client Login area.

Show it off

The CMS is SEO friendly so that people can find your site. It's friendly to URLs, and you can name your pages what you like, and group them the way you want to. Proper semantic markup ensures a separation of content and design. Unobtrusive JavaScript and an automatically generated Google sitemap are key features in getting a search engine to rank sites. In addition, our CMS enables content authors to add and edit meta data such as page keywords, descriptions, and image ALT and TITLE attributes.
